Stocks Retreat Post-Thanksgiving Amid Tech Weakness

U.S. stocks slipped in light trading as investors took profits following a strong rally in November. The S&P 500 ($SPX500) ended lower, breaking a seven-day winning streak, while the Nasdaq ($NAS100) underperformed due to a sell-off in major technology names. The Dow Jones ($US30) also reversed earlier gains, reflecting cautious sentiment as traders reassessed risks.

Heavyweights Nvidia and Meta, both strong performers this year, faced declines as investors rotated out of high-growth stocks. Dell and HP were among the session’s worst performers, tumbling sharply after issuing disappointing earnings forecasts, adding pressure to the broader tech sector.

Japanese Yen Hits Five-Week High on USD Weakness

The Japanese yen strengthened to a five-week high of 151.56 against the USD ($USDJPY), driven by speculation that the Bank of Japan may raise interest rates in December. Comments from BoJ Governor Kazuo Ueda hinting at potential rate adjustments have bolstered these expectations, with the probability of a 25-basis-point hike rising to 60%. Traders now await Tokyo inflation data, which could play a key role in shaping BoJ's monetary policy.
