Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) stock dropped by 1.48% due to a broader market negative trend. The S&P 500 experienced a 1.3% decrease, while the Nasdaq Composite declined by 1.6%. The Dow industrials also dropped by about 1%, equivalent to roughly 330 points. This market-wide decline was influenced by several factors, including the following:

• Long-term bond yields reached a new 16-year high, which weighed on stocks. The benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yield closed just above 4.9%, marking its highest level since July 2007. Higher bond yields can make riskier assets like stocks appear less attractive and increase borrowing costs for both companies and households.
• A deadly explosion at a Gaza hospital heightened concerns about a broader regional conflict. Arab leaders canceled a summit with President Biden, reducing the likelihood of an imminent diplomatic solution to the conflict.
• Morgan Stanley's stock fell after the bank reported a drop in quarterly net income, which contributed to negative sentiment in the financial sector.
• On a more positive note, Procter & Gamble shares gained value as the company announced that its quarterly profit had risen, driven by price hikes. Given these factors, VTI, which tracks the overall stock market, experienced a corresponding decline in its stock price due to the broader market downturn and the impact of these events on investor sentiment.

Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) stock dropped due to a broader market trend where major indices like the Nasdaq, S&P 500, and Dow Jones Industrial Average all experienced losses. The market was reacting to the Federal Reserve's indications that interest rates might stay higher for longer than anticipated, as well as the Bank of England's decision to keep rates steady after a series of hikes. Additionally, comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell had contributed to market uncertainty. Consequently, VTI, which mirrors the overall stock market, saw a decline in its stock price due to these market dynamics and investor sentiment.

Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) stock dropped by 1.14% due to a broader market trend, where major U.S. indices, including the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow Jones Industrial Average, all experienced losses. Investor concerns centered around the creditworthiness of U.S. banks and the potential global economic impact of China's struggling economy and troubled real estate market. Fitch Ratings, an influential credit rating agency, indicated that it might lower its outlook for the entire U.S. banking industry. Such a move could affect the credit ratings of over 70 banks, including major institutions like JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and Bank of America (BAC). This concern arose in the wake of Moody's, another credit agency, downgrading 10 smaller U.S. banks in the preceding week. Consequently, VTI, which reflects the performance of the overall stock market, experienced a decline in its stock price due to these market dynamics and investor sentiment.
