All three major U.S. stock indices snapped a three-day winning streak as an imminent tariff announcement from President Trump derailed the recovery from a month-long selloff - Dow fell -132.71-points or 0.31% lower. Nvidia Corp fell -5.74% amid concerns about possible new restrictions on the chipmaker's sales in China. Regulators in China have been discouraging the country’s large technology companies from purchasing Nvidia’s H20 chip - specifically designed to satisfy U.S. sanctions on exports - as it breaches energy-efficiency rules, the Financial Times reported, citing people with knowledge of the matter. Boeing Co fell -2.1% after a federal judge ordered the airplane maker to go to trial in June in a criminal case related to two 737 MAX crashes in 2018 and 2019. The Wall Street Journal reported Monday (24 March) that Boeing sought to withdraw an earlier agreement to plead guilty in the case that blamed it for deceiving regulators before the crashes. The broader S&P500 shed -1.1% and the biggest decline in almost 2 weeks. Consumer staples rose +1.42%, leading five of the eleven primary sectors higher. Information technology was the worst hit -down -2.46% and sat at the foot of the primary sector leaderboard followed by Communication services- down 2.04%
