Big Tech's slide on Halloween weighs on stock market
How big has the tech sector’s Halloween slump been?
The S&P 500’s information-technology sector was down 3.4% on Thursday, on pace for its biggest one-day drop in about two months, according to FactSet data.
Mixed reception to a big earnings week from megacap tech stocks were partially blamed for the selloff, as well as the sharp jump in benchmark Treasury rates since mid-September.
