US Stock Markets Fall as Oracle Shares Drop Over Data Center Project Concerns
US stock markets declined notably on Thursday, with the Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and S&P 500 all falling amid rising Treasury yields and oil prices, which heightened inflation concerns. Oracle's shares dropped nearly 5% following reports that it issued a 'force majeure' notice to delay payments related to a New Mexico data center project, Project Jupiter, potentially affecting its 2028 launch. Other tech and growth stocks also faced declines, contributing to the broader market pullback.
