Wall Street slips on JPMorgan warning as December inflation holds at 2.7% — Visa, Mastercard tumble

U.S. stock indexes slipped on Tuesday as financials dragged after JPMorgan warned that a proposed cap on credit-card interest rates could hit consumers, hammering payment stocks. At 11:28 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 338.22 points, or 0.68%, the S&P 500 fell 0.29% and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.21%. Visa slid 4.7% and Mastercard sank 5.3%, and traders still priced in at least two 25-basis-point cuts later this year; “The Fed is likely to take its time and absorb more data,” said Skyler Weinand, chief investment officer at Regan Capital. The fresh inflation data is one of the last big inputs for policymakers and investors before the Federal Reserve meets later this month. With the S&P 500 and Dow hovering near record highs, even a small wobble in rate expectations can spill into valuations, especially for rate-sensitive sectors.

McLaren said farmers in hard-hit areas have also helped keep roads open and assisted vulnerable people in rural communities.
