US: Wall St opens lower on mixed earnings, rising yields
US STOCKS fell at the open on Wednesday (Apr 19) as Treasury yields rose on expectations that the Federal Reserve could keep interest rates higher for longer, while mixed earnings from regional banks and weakness in Tesla further dented sentiment.

The S&P 500 opened lower by 15.54 points, or 0.37 per cent, at 4,139.33, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 89.73 points, or 0.74 per cent, to 12,063.68 at the opening bell. REUTERS
