Bond-market pressure returns as Walmart slide pushes S&P 500 down 0.3%
AI Market Summary
U.S. equities weakened as higher oil prices revived inflation concerns and pushed bond yields back up, reversing some of the prior day's Treasury-driven relief. Walmart's post-earnings decline added to index-level pressure, with the S&P 500 slipping and the Nasdaq underperforming. The move underscores renewed sensitivity to rates and consumer spending signals, while energy-linked stocks benefited from firmer crude.
