Most large technology stocks fell, with Intel falling about 7%, Google, Tesla, Apple, and Amazon falling more than 1%, Microsoft falling 0.8%, Nvidia and Meta falling slightly. Target's stock price fell over 10% before narrowing its decline, as the retailer reported another drop in sales. Estee Lauder fell more than 3%, performance guidance below expectations.
