Wall Street's main indexes fell on Wednesday, deepening a pullback in equities, as rising Treasury yields kept investors on edge about the path ahead for interest rates.

The S&P 500 has fallen 7.5% since late July, but remains up over 10% for 2023.

"Concern is that the economy is still doing OK, but we need to see some weakness to give interest rates a reason to peak and so far, we're not seeing that," said Paul Nolte, market strategist at Murphy & Sylvest Wealth Management. Declining issues outnumbered advancers by a 1.5-to-1 ratio on the NYSE. There were 42 new highs and 365 new lows on the NYSE.
