US stock indices fell collectively last week, in light of the decline witnessed by Wall Street stocks on the last day of trading, Friday.
US indices closed lower following a turbulent week in which US Treasury bond yields hit their highest level in 16 years, with investors evaluating revisions to the US Federal Reserve’s monetary tightening expectations.
The three main indices fluctuated for most of the session, but fell collectively to end the week on a negative note.
