The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1%, or 330 points, by 1 p.m. EDT, while the S&amp;P 500 and tech-heavy Nasdaq slid 1.1% and 1.4%, respectively. Specifically driving Tuesday\u2019s spike in rate anxiety was a job openings report which revealed the labor market remains stronger than expected, threatening to encourage the Federal Reserve to further raise rates to keep the economy in check, though Friday\u2019s broader jobs report will reveal the extent to which the labor market kept its luster this summer. The latest jobs data was \u201cnot good news\u201d for stocks or bonds as the odds of a rate hike rose, according to Bolvin Wealth Management president Gina Bolvin.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Surprising Fact<\/h2>\n<p>The S&amp;P has suffered three of its ten worst daily losses of the year over the last two weeks.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Key Background<\/h2>\n<p>The current tightening cycle began early last year as the Fed moved to rein in inflation, bumping the target federal funds rate from near-zero to 5.25% to 5.5% over the course of just 18 months. Equities took a major hit last year as the macroeconomic backdrop grew less friendly to growth, and the S&amp;P tanked 19% while 10-year yields more than doubled. But optimism about the Fed\u2019s ability to stick a \u201csoft landing\u201d where it cools inflation while keeping the economy afloat prevailed for much of 2023, keeping equity investors happy, before September reinvigorated investor uneasiness, triggering losses.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/dereksaul\/2023\/10\/03\/dow-sinks-300-points-to-4-month-low-how-historically-high-bond-yields-are-driving-slump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Topline Stocks tanked Tuesday while bond yields soared, again highlighting worries about what high interest rates mean for equities as the Dow and S&amp;P are each on track to notch their lowest close in more than four months.
