Dow Jones, S&P 500, Nasdaq: Wall Street trading lower – Nvidia shares up

US stock market indexes fell at the start of the new trading week. The Dow Jones dropped 0.5% to 51,568 points, while the S&P 500 declined 0.3% to 7,718 points and the Nasdaq fell 0.4% to 26,954 points. Oil prices rose around 1% due to US President Donald Trump's rejection of Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, fuelling inflation concerns. This led to a rise in US Treasury yields, with the 10-year yield reaching over 5.2%, its highest level in nearly two decades, and the 30-year bond yield exceeding 5.5%.
