Most U.S. stocks fell following a mixed round of data on the economy, keeping them on track for their worst week since April. The S&P 500 slipped 0.3% Thursday for a third straight drop, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.5%. The Nasdaq composite held up better than the rest of the market and rose 0.3% thanks to gains for Tesla and a handful of other Big Tech stocks. Treasury yields eased a bit ahead of a highly anticipated report on Friday. That’s when the U.S. government will release its latest update on the job market.
