The Closing Bell: Wall Street Falls After Fischer, Yellen Comments: Naz, Financials & Health Care Up
FYI: Stocks reversed lower in the afternoon, shedding their solid gains from the morning, after Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen said the case for a rate hike had strengthened. After that, Fed Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer told CNBC that he saw Yellen's comments as consistent with a rate hike at the September meeting.
