On Thursday, November 10th, the U.S. stock markets closed lower amid rising Treasury yields following a lackluster 30-year bond auction and remarks from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

Powell highlighted the need for continued efforts to bring inflation back to its desired level, emphasizing that there is still a "long way to go" to get to the 2% target.

S&P 500's eight-day and the Nasdaq broke the nine-day winning streaks, the longest since November 2021.

S&P's all 11 sectors finished lower, with healthcare and consumer discretionary sectors leading the fall.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average declined by 0.65% to 33,891.94, the S&P 500 slid 0.81% to 4,347.35, and the Nasdaq Composite was down 0.94%, ending the session at 13,521.45.
