Stocks fell in morning trading on Wall Street Wednesday as the market continues an unsettled period of trading ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S. The S&P 500 fell 0.5%. The benchmark index, which set a record high last Thursday, was weighed down by losses in technology and consumer-focused companies. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.4% and the Nasdaq fell 0.7%. Supply chain problems hurt financial results for several large retailers. Gap sank 23% after reporting results that came in far below analysts’ forecasts. Nordstrom gave up 29% after it also reported very weak results.
