The Nasdaq hit correction and the Dow gained after investors bet on stocks that might benefit the most from an economic rebound as the stimulus bill awaits a final congressional vote

The Dow hit a record intra-day high but the big tech stocks that have led Wall Street to scale successive peaks over the past year fell, with the Nasdaq closing down 2.41%. The Nasdaq is now down 10.6% from its Feb. 12 record close, or more than a 10% slide the market considers a correction.

But prospects of more government spending and a growing economy have stoked fears of an inflation spike, sending the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield to near one-year highs and weighing on technology shares that rely on cheap funding for growth. “People have been reallocating assets into those sectors. It’s been coming out of growth-tech to fund those purchases,” he said.
