Wall Street's losses stretched into another day, with investor sentiment dinged by Salesforce's (CRM) revenue whiff and rising Treasury yields. The Dow slid 330 points for a third-straight loss, its worth losing streak since mid-April, while the Nasdaq also shed triple digits. Investors are also bracing for the release of the Federal Reserve's favorite inflation gauge, the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, due out tomorrow and expected to show slow progress.
