U.S. Markets Slip After Fed Comments, Sector Moves Diverge
Posted on Sep 25, 2025 / USA
Major U.S. stock indices edged lower on September 24, with the S&P 500 down 0.3 percent and the Dow off 0.4 percent. The Russell 2000, tracking small-cap firms, led losses with a 0.9 percent drop. Investors reacted warily to remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell about inflation and labor market challenges. Surprisingly, homebuilders gained ground on a strong new-home sales figure even as tech momentum cooled. Micron Technology slipped despite reporting superior earnings, underscoring the mixed sector landscape. The broader weakness suggests markets are digesting macro risks even amid year-to-date gains.
