U.S. stocks slump in broad decline, Apple shares tumble

U.S. stocks closed lower on Friday, with major indexes slumping in a broad decline. While Wall Street posted a second straight positive week, the selloff heavily eroded the week's gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.8% to 24,463. The S&P 500 lost 0.9% to 2,670. The Nasdaq Composite Index ended down 1.3% to 7,146. For the week, the Dow rose 0.4%, the S&P was up 0.5% and the Nasdaq rose 0.6%. All three closed below their 50-day moving average, a level used as a gauge for short-term momentum trends. Equities were pressured by a decline in Apple Inc. , which shed 4.1% amid cautious analyst commentary over its upcoming quarterly results. While 10 of the 11 S&P 500 sectors closed in negative territory, technology was among the biggest losers of the day, down 1.5%. Separately, investors dropped stocks as the yield for the benchmark 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.96% and neared its highest since around 2014.

The U.S. 10-year government bond yield just touched its highest level in about 4 years

Treasury prices tumbled, pushing yields higher, on Friday as investors and traders sold U.S. government paper. The 10-year Treasury note yield advanced 4.4 basis points to 2.956%, the highest since January 2014. The 2-year note yield rose 4.2 basis points to 2.956%, while the 30-year bond yield rose 3.9 basis points to 3.144%. Bond prices move in the opposite direction of yields. Investors pointed the finger at a range of reasons including an overextended yield curve flattening in the last few weeks, stronger inflation expectations and more market participants pricing in three additional rate hikes this year. The rise in yields coincided with an accelerated slide in the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 index in late-Friday trade.

Dow falls nearly 300 points at lows, threatens to give up weekly gain as government bond yields rise

The Dow Jones Industrial Average on Friday was encountering intensifying selling pressure with less than an hour left of trading, with the blue chip gauge on the verge of giving up its weekly gain. Part of the blame for the downdraft accelerating was a rise of the yield in the benchmark 10-year Treasury note to 2.96%, representing the highest since around 2014. Meanwhile, shares of Apple Inc. were powering the decline, cutting about 50 points from the average. Most recently, the Dow was down about 256 points, or 1%, with the benchmark hanging on to a weekly advance of about 0.2%. Apple's stock, off $7, or 4%, also was dragging the broader technology sector lower, with Dow component International Business Machines Corp. share [: IBM] slicing about 20 points from the average. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index was taking the brunt of the intraday tumble among the main benchmarks, off 1.4%, at 7,138. The S&P 500 index was down 1% at 2,666, with tech and the consumer-staples sectors both off nearly 2%, leading losses in the broad-market index. The S&P 500 was holding on to a weekly gain of 0.4%, while the Nasdaq boasts a rise over the 5-session period of 0.5%.

Most recently, the S&P 500 was trading 1.1% lower at 2,664, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was giving up 1% at 24,409, while the Nasdaq Composite Index retreated by 1.5% at 7,134.
