Oct 23 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes moved lower on Wednesday, as worries of a less dovish Federal Reserve lifted Treasury yields, while losses in McDonald's and Coca-Cola also weighed on investors' minds.
U.S. Treasury yields were trading at three-month highs, pressuring stocksas markets reassess the size of interest-rate cuts over the next several months against the backdrop of strong economic data.
"When you get a 10-year Treasury at a four and a quarter, it pushes back on the rally in the stock market. Things start to slow down... and people get a little bit nervous," said Robert Pavlik, senior portfolio manager at Dakota Wealth.
The market's recent rally also contributed to the pullback on the day, Pavlik said.
Rate-sensitive growth stocks were hit, with Nvidia NVDA.O down 1.8% and Apple off 0.5%, pulling Information Technology stocks .SPLRCT 0.6% lower.
Tesla TSLA.O will be the first of the so-called Magnificent Seven companies to report results after market close. Its shares slipped 0.1%.
Among the major indexes, the blue-chip Dow underperformed, weighed down byMcDonald's MCD.N. The fast-food chain slumped 6.1% after an E. coli infection linked to itsQuarter Pounder hamburgers killed one and sickened many.
The broader Consumer Discretionary .SPLRCD sector was off 0.7%.
Coca-Cola KO.N dipped 2.7% after the company reiterated its annual profit growth forecast despite expecting higher revenue. Boeing BA.N was up 0.6% in choppy trading even after reporting a quarterlyloss of $6 billion owing to a crippling strike.
Factory workers at the troubled planemaker will vote later in the day on a new contract proposal that could end the more than five-week-long standoff.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI fell 246.59 points, or 0.57%, to 42,678.30, the S&P 500 .SPX lost 20.11 points, or 0.34%, to 5,831.09 and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC lost 87.92 points, or 0.47%, to 18,485.21.
U.S. markets are near record high levels, but a combination of earnings, a changing monetary policy outlook and the upcoming presidential election will test the sustainability of the recent rally and could lead to some market volatility.
Investors are also focused on the rising chances of a second Donald Trump administration. If he wins, Trump's policies for spending and tariff implementation are expected to raise the U.S. fiscal deficit as well as inflation.
