Consumer discretionary sector lags
Dow -277.39 at 53408.72, Nasdaq -47.88 at 26557.23, S&P -22.94 at 7724.77

[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (-0.3%), Nasdaq Composite (-0.2%), and DJIA (-0.5%) now trade lower across the board as broad weakness begins to outweigh gains in technology stocks.

LULU is the worst-performing S&P 500 component after disappointing with its Q2 (Jul) results last night, with shares falling below $100 for the first time in several years. Guidance is the main source of pressure, with Q3 EPS and revenue guidance well below expectations and lululemon athletica (LULU 100.65, -21.12, -17.34%) cutting its FY27 guidance significantly for a second consecutive quarter, adding to concerns ahead of its CEO transition.

The consumer discretionary sector (-1.4%) is also the worst-performing S&P 500 sector, though that is more due Tesla (TSLA 352.85, -23.52, -6.25%) giving back the entirety of yesterday's rally.
