NEW YORK, Sept 27 (Reuters) - The S&P 500 and Nasdaq indexes ended lower on Monday with investors pivoting to value as tech shares, hurt by rising Treasury yields, weighed on equities in the quarter"s final week. Of the three major U.S. stock indexes, only the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI) closed in positive territory, buoyed by financials and industrials. Economically sensitive smallcaps (.RUT) and transports (.DJT) outperformed the broader market. "The economic reopening trade is alive and well," said Chuck Carlson, chief executive of Horizon Investment Services in Hammond, Indiana. "Economically sensitive stocks are up, and tech’s being worked over pretty good." Benchmark U.S. Treasury yields rose, to the benefit of rate-sensitive financials (.SPSY). Rising crude prices pushed energy stocks (.SPNY) to the biggest closing percentage gains. "Rising rates typically reflect investors having a little bit more confidence in the economy not being stalled out," Carlson added. "And the Fed is also indicating it"s going to start tapering sooner rather later, and that"s probably helping upward trajectory in rates." Those rising yields hurt some market leaders that had benefited from low rates. Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O), Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O), Alphabet Inc (GOOGL.O) and Apple Inc (AAPL.O) ended the session down between 0.6% and 1.7%. In Washington, negotiations over funding the government and raising the debt ceiling were heating up at the start of a week that could also include a vote on U.S. President Biden"s $1 trillion infrastructure bill. read more Summary Stocks sensitive to economy outperform the market U.S. core capital goods orders, shipments rise in Aug Indexes: Dow rises 0.21%, S&P down 0.28%, Nasdaq falls 0.52% NEW YORK, Sept 27 (Reuters) - The S&P 500 and Nasdaq indexes ended lower on Monday with investors pivoting to value as tech shares, hurt by rising Treasury yields, weighed on equities in the quarter"s final week.
