S&P 500's losing streak extends to three |
The S&P 500 fell 0.5% on Thursday, marking its third straight day in the red for the first time in over a month. The Nasdaq 100 gave back 0.4% and the Russell 2000 fell 1%. Every S&P 500 sector ETF finished in the red aside from energy, with consumer discretionary and healthcare faring the worst. Bright spots on the day were led by Intel, which rose 8.8% following a Bloomberg report that the chipmaker approached Apple about a possible investment as it seeks to revive its business. Declines were led by CarMax, which sank 20% after the used vehicle retailer missed Wall Street's estimates for the second quarter. Elsewhere… |
