Clearly rotation out of the high tech into the cyclicals. Rising interest rates can't be blamed today as the 10 year yield is currently down -0.6 basis points. The 30 year yield is down -1.2 basis points.
Technically, the index is in between a swing area defined by swing lows going back to February 23. The price did move below that swing area between March 4 and March 10. Since breaking back above, the lows have held in the swing area on March 10 and again on March 19.
One more hour of trading.
