With the trading day more than halfway over, the markets were making a handy recovery from Wednesday’s sell-off. The squeeze on tech stocks was being felt again, as the Nasdaq lagged both the S&P 500 and Dow Jones industrial average. The Nasdaq was up closer to 0.6%, while the other two major averages were up over 1%.
