U.S. stocks went back to falling, and Big Tech again led the way.

The S&P 500 lost 1.1% Tuesday for its latest swerve in a scary, weekslong ride. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.6%, and the Nasdaq composite tumbled 1.7%.

Tesla and stocks in the artificial-intelligence industry were again some of the heaviest weights on the market. They’ve been among the hardest hit in Wall Street’s recent sell-off caused by uncertainty created by President Donald Trump’s trade war. Treasury yields slipped ahead of the Federal Reserve’s announcement on interest rates coming Wednesday.

The S&P 500 fell 60.46 points, or 1.1%, to 5,614.66.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 260.32 points, or 0.6%, to 41,581.31.

The Nasdaq composite fell 304.55 points, or 1.7%, to 17,504.12.

The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies fell 18.40 points, or 0.9%, to 2,049.94.
