US markets end lower on profit booking

14 Oct 2020 Evaluate

The US markets ended lower on Tuesday on profit booking after the major averages climbed to their best closing levels in over a month on Monday. Negative sentiment was also generated in reaction to report that Johnson & Johnson has paused a late-stage trial of its Covid-19 vaccine candidate due to an unexplained illness in a study participant. Further, uncertainty about a new stimulus bill also weighed on markets, as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi continued her attacks on the White House’s latest offer in a letter to her Democratic colleagues, claiming the proposal falls significantly short of what this pandemic and deep recession demand.

On the economic data front, Consumer prices in the US showed a modest increase in the month of September, according to a report released by the Labor Department, with the uptick in prices matching economist estimates. The Labor Department said its consumer price index rose by 0.2 percent in September after climbing by 0.4 percent in August. Prices for used cars and trucks spiked by 6.7 percent, accounting for most of the monthly increase by the headline index. The report said energy prices increased by 0.8 percent amid a jump in prices for natural gas, while food prices came in unchanged.

Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 157.71 points or 0.55 percent to 28,679.81, Nasdaq fell 12.36 points or 0.1 percent 11,863.9 and S&P 500 was down by 22.29 points or 0.63 percent to 3,511.93.
