Market Overview: The S&P 500 and Dow Jones indexes are slightly up, while the Nasdaq is down. Mixed stock performance is influenced by strong chip stocks and lower T-note yields, despite losses in major tech stocks and concerns over US tariffs affecting economic growth.
Economic Indicators: February retail sales rose less than expected, while manufacturing and housing market indices showed declines. Global markets received a boost from positive economic news in China, but geopolitical tensions from US military actions in Yemen are adding pressure to stock performance.
