The Nasdaq Composite, which is heavily weighted towards technology stocks, fell more sharply by 0.98% to end the day at 11,910.53. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which tracks the performance of 30 large US companies, eked out a gain of 0.68% to close at 34,156.69.

However, investors are keeping a close eye on the latest developments in the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which could impact market sentiment in the coming weeks and months.
