Financial sector rallies, is top-performing industry of the day

The financial sector rose on Thursday, bucking the negative tone of the overall market and gaining as the top-performing sector of the day. The group rose 0.8%. Among the biggest gainers were American Express Co. , which surged 5.9% a day after reporting results that topped analyst forecasts. Bank of New York Mellon Corp. rose 3.6% after its own results. The gains for the broader financial sector come as the 10-year Treasury note yield rose above 2.9%, flirting with its highs from earlier in the year. Rising long-dated yields are seen as a tailwind for bank profitability. JPMorgan Chase & Co. rose 0.8%, Citigroup Inc. was up 1.2% and Morgan Stanley rose 1.1%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.3% while the S&P 500 was off 0.4% and the Nasdaq Composite Index was down 0.5%.

Just behind AmEx was General Electric Co.'s stock , which climbed 1.8% ahead of the industrial conglomerate's first-quarter results due out early Friday. The Dow's biggest loser was Procter & Gamble Co.'s stock , which shed 3.9%, to shave about 21 points off the Dow's price, after reporting fiscal third-quarter results.
