US open: Boeing losses weigh on Dow

(Sharecast News) - Wall Street trading got off to a mixed start on Monday after major indices started the new year off by snapping their nine-week winning streak. As of 1530 GMT, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.27% at 37,363.35, while the S&P 500 advanced 0.42% to 4,717.03 and the Nasdaq Composite came out the gate 1.02% firmer at 14,672.77.

The Dow opened 102.76 points lower on Monday, easily reversing the previous session's small gain.

Last week was, on the whole, a disappointing first week of the year for major indices as mega-cap tech stocks underperformed and Treasury yields rose on the back of elevated uncertainty around the path of future rate cuts from the FOMC.

On Monday, traders will keep one eye focussed on Washington as lawmakers attempt to avoid a government shutdown, with congressional leaders announcing a deal setting up $1.59trn in top-line spending.

Also in focus, the yield on the benchmark ten-year Treasury note swung back above the psychologically important 4% mark before the open and was sitting at 4.005%.

On the macro front, consumer credit chase figures for November will be published at 2000 GMT.

In the corporate space, plane builder Boeing was sharply lower in early trading, weighing on the Dow, following news that the Federal Aviation Administration had ordered a temporary grounding of dozens of its 737 Max 9 aircraft after experiencing a blowout incident on Friday.
