The Nasdaq Composite lost -179.01 points, or -1.28%, at 13815.39. The S&P 500 declined -40.57 points, or -0.9%, at 4477.87. Among the 11 major S&P 500 sectors, 10 showed negative movement, with Materials leading the way with a -1.44% decrease. Moody's downgraded the ratings of 10 smaller and midsized banks. This is because the credit rating agency is concerned about the financial strength of these banks, due to factors such as rising interest rates and the trend of people working from home, which is leaving office buildings vacant. Investors are also worried about the earnings reports of some companies. UPS, the delivery giant, reported weaker-than-expected revenue for the second quarter. The company also lowered its full-year revenue outlook. This is a sharp contrast to Monday, when the stock market had its best day since June 15.
