Shares also slid across selected growth and technology themes, with Nvidia, Micron, and Sandisk among the notable decliners cited in the live market coverage.

The tape also included company specific moves within the same session, including a sharp gain for Cerebras as the stock surged on AI optimism highlighted in coverage of the firm’s comments, alongside other movers such as Rolls-Royce reaching a new high in 14 years.

In the broader index pressure, the coverage described the decline as driven by yields, with major averages trading lower across the open market day.
