Stocks closed lower on worries about a potentially toxic cocktail for financial markets, one where inflation remains stubbornly high but the economy's growth flags. A sharp drop for Meta Platforms, one of Wall Street's most influential stocks, also dragged the market lower. The S&P 500 fell 0.5% Thursday after paring an earlier drop of 1.6%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 1%, and the Nasdaq composite gave back 0.6%. Treasury yields climbed after the government reported that inflation remained hotter than forecast during the first three months of the year. The economy's growth also slowed more than expected.
