U.S. equities gave up early gains and finished lower on the first trading session of the year. Today’s movement followed the long holiday weekend, and the end of 2022, which posted the worst yearly decline since 2008. Equity news was light to begin the new year, but Tesla’s shares fell after the company missed on Q4 delivery expectations due to ongoing logistical issues, growing demand concerns, and stiff competition.
Several economic reports were released after the opening bell, as a read on domestic manufacturing activity remained in contraction territory, while construction spending unexpectedly rose in December.
Treasury yields fell and the U.S. dollar rallied, while crude oil prices lost solid ground, and gold was higher.
Finally, Asian stocks finished mixed, and markets in Europe rose, as the international markets digested a host of PMI reports, German inflation data, and the recent rise in China’s COVID cases.
