  • Stocks Slide on Tech Weakness, Rising Bond Yields; Oil Prices Volatile Amid Geopolitical Tensions
    May 19, 2026, 12:36 PM EDT. Stock indexes fell with the S&P 500 down 0.35% and Nasdaq 100 down 0.45%, pressured by weakness in technology shares and a surge in the 10-year U.S. Treasury note yield to a 15-month high of 4.66%. Rising bond yields and elevated crude oil prices triggered risk-off sentiment, leading to stock liquidations. Crude oil remains volatile amid geopolitical uncertainty following a paused U.S. strike on Iran. Goldman Sachs reports nearly 500 million barrels have been drawn from global oil inventories due to supply disruptions. Earnings season shows strength; 83% of S&P 500 companies beating estimates with a projected 12% year-over-year earnings rise. Overseas markets were mixed, with the Euro Stoxx 50 up 0.71% and Japan's Nikkei down 0.44%. Investors weigh inflation concerns and Fed policy ahead of the June Federal Open Market Committee meeting.
