Wall Street Slips Again as Rising Oil and Treasury Yields Weigh

The stock market declined for the fourth consecutive day on Thursday, pressured by oil prices rising above $105 a barrel and higher Treasury yields amid growing expectations of a rate hike. The 10-year Treasury yield neared 5%, adding further pressure on stocks and making them less attractive to investors.

Overall, S&P 500 fell 0.6% to 7,592, while Nasdaq decreased 0.7% to 26,082.
