Nasdaq 100 Underperforms Major Benchmarks
Nasdaq 100 ended flat on Wednesday and S&P 500 Futures printed mild losses, while Dow Jones bettered its position by 0.25%.
As the US Treasury yields rallied the most in three weeks limiting the appeal of tech plays, Nasdaq 100 closed flat finishing at 16,491. Investors speculate that Nasdaq 100 may continue to take back foot in the earlier part of 2022, retreating towards somewhere around 16,200.
 
S&P 500 Futures bears could not capitalize on the favourable position to strike earlier on Wednesday but yet succeeded in pushing the price down. Dow Jones closed on a record high for the blue-chip index, rising 0.25% to 36,488.

Surging inflations and unorthodox monetary policies of the Central Bank of Republic of Turkey (CBRT) are considered the major factors for the struggle of Lira.
