Stocks Dip as Market Rally Pauses Amid Mixed Data and Inflation Concerns

U.S. stocks slipped on Thursday as the market pulled back from record highs, with major indices like the S&P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq Composite all declining. Technology stocks, which had surged the previous day, were mostly lower, with notable declines in Nvidia, Alphabet, and Amazon. Adobe shares fell sharply due to a weak revenue outlook, while Warner Bros. Discovery shares rose on restructuring news. Economic data showed higher-than-expected wholesale inflation and disappointing jobless claims, but did not alter expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut next week. Meanwhile, Donald Trump made a historic visit to the NYSE, promoting tax cuts and investment in AI.
