U.S. stocks finished firmly lower on Tuesday as Wall Street continued monitoring headlines around the escalating Ukraine-Russia conflict. Investors struck a decidedly risk-off tone amid worries a more destructive phase of the war was still to come. Also pressuring sentiment, West Texas Intermediate crude spiked 9.1% to $104.44/barrel, settling at its highest level in more than seven years despite the U.S. and other major economies agreeing on a coordinated release of crude stockpiles. Additionally, a measure of broader commodity prices surged the most since 2009, further stoking inflationary concerns. On Capitol Hill, all eyes will be on President Biden’s first State of the Union address at 9:00 p.m. ET tonight.

Perceived safe haven assets caught a bid, with COMEX gold soaring 2.4% to $1,946.20/ounce, while a gauge of the U.S. dollar jumped 0.7%. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note dropped 10 basis points (0.10%) to 1.73%, its lowest level since mid-January. The yield on the two-year Treasury note slid nine basis points (0.09%) to 1.35%, as market participants dialed back expectations for a more aggressive Federal Reserve rate hike path as the crisis in Eastern Europe dented economic growth prospects.

Ten of 11 S&P 500 sectors closed in negative territory, with Energy the lone advancer. Financials led the decline, falling 3.7% in tandem with the drop in Treasury yields. Chipmakers also lagged, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index sinking 3.6%. Big-box retailer Target Corp. (TGT +9.84%) bucked the downtrend after easily topping consensus earnings estimates and providing an upbeat outlook.
