Roughly three out of four stocks in the S&P 500 ended lower, but Nvidia rallied to another record. It’s one of Wall Street’s most influential stocks because of its massive size and helped to limit the S&P 500’s losses. Treasury yields held relatively steady, while oil prices recovered some of their sharp losses from the day before.
