The Closing Bell: US Stocks Skid On Concerns About Slow Hiring; Retailers Drop

TedTed
edited July 2017 in The Bullpen
FYI: U.S. stocks are taking broad losses Thursday as investors react to mounting evidence that hiring has slowed down based on a report from payroll processor ADP. Health care and technology companies are taking sharp losses. Retailers are falling after L Brands, the parent company of Victoria's Secret, reported weak sales in June.
