The Dow closed -1.59%, the S&amp;P -1.19% and the Nasdaq -0.49%. The U.S. 10-year yield, however barely moved from 1.51%. Once again, all the Dow components closed in the red.<\/p>\n<p>Most notably, <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/214\/CAT-N\">Caterpillar<\/a> finished the session -3.11%, <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/1332\/WBA-Q\">Walgreens<\/a> -3.33%, <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/567\/HD-N\">Home Depot<\/a> -2.57% and <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/4769\/AAL-Q\">American Airlines<\/a> -2.33%. However, <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/129\/BBBY-Q\">Bed Bath &amp; Beyond<\/a> tanked 22.18% after missing Q2 earnings due to supply chain constraints, a common lament of late which added to the day&#8217;s pessimism. Surprisingly, tech had an easier session and saw a few gains in <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/59\/AMD-Q\">AMD<\/a>, up 2.54%, and <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/6658\/AFRM-Q\">Affirm Holdings<\/a>, up 5.64%. The Dow and Nasdaq finished Q3 with its first negative performance since March 2020. The Dow and S&amp;P are trading 5% below their all-time highs.<\/p>\n<p>The TSX fared comparatively better, shedding only 0.44% for the day. Materials, energy and staples actually climbed, while other components sank. Big gainers included <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/130\/BBDB-T\">Bombardier<\/a>, up 3.35%, <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/2655\/DML-T\">Denison Mines<\/a> jumping nearly 7%, and <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/228\/CCO-T\">Cameco<\/a> 4.76%.

Both the U.K. and now China are seeing energy shortages, which nudged the price of WTI oil up 0.25% to $75 a barrel, and WCS by 0.33% to over $63 and absorbed the TSX&#8217;s overall losses. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/6312\/QBTCU-T\">Bitcoin<\/a> rebounded 6% to nearly $44,000.<\/p>\n<p>&#x1f3d7; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/214\/CAT-N\">Caterpillar<\/a> -3.11%<br \/>\n&#x1f48a; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/1332\/WBA-Q\">Walgreen Boots Alliance<\/a> -3.33%<br \/>\n&#x1f6e0; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/567\/HD-N\">Home Depot<\/a> -2.57%<br \/>\n&#x1f6eb; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/4769\/AAL-Q\">American Airlines Group<\/a> -2.33%<br \/>\n&#x1f6cf; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/129\/BBBY-Q\">Bed Bath &amp; Beyond<\/a> -22.18%<br \/>\n&#x1f4be; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/59\/AMD-Q\">Advanced Micro Devices<\/a> +2.54%<br \/>\n&#x1f4bf; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/6658\/AFRM-Q\">Affirm Holdings<\/a> +5.64%<br \/>\n&#x1f682; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/130\/BBDB-T\">Bombardier Inc (B)<\/a> +3.35%<br \/>\n&#x26cf; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/2655\/DML-T\">Denison Mines Corp<\/a> +7%<br \/>\n&#x1f9f1; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/228\/CCO-T\">Cameco Corporation<\/a> +4.76%<br \/>\n&#x1f6eb; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/2802\/AC-T\">Air Canada<\/a> -2.57%<br \/>\n&#x1f4be; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/6014\/LSPD-T\">Lightspeed Commerce Inc<\/a> -3%<br \/>\n&#x1f3d7; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/5736\/XBC-X\">Xebec Adsorption<\/a> -10.71%<br \/>\n&#x1f171; <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/6312\/QBTCU-T\">The Bitcoin Fund<\/a> +6%<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fears of ongoing inflation and the U.S. raising interest rates sooner than later continue to weigh on investors who pushed stocks further down Thursday.
