WASHINGTON, June 9 (Reuters) - A recent run of optimism in markets hit the brakes on Tuesday as investors mostly pulled back from stocks, though the Nasdaq extended its record run to a new high, while the safe-haven yen, Swiss franc and gold rallied.
A slide in Europe and partially on Wall Street capped a rally that has pushed Asian stocks outside of Japan .MIAP00000PUS overnight higher for a ninth straight day.
Oil prices closed higher as concerns about a resurgence in coronavirus cases were offset by recent commitments from the major oil producers to rein in production.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite .IXIC shook off early losses to close higher and briefly cleared 10,000 points for the first time. Apple AAPL.O , up 3.2%, gave the Nasdaq its biggest boost. Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI and S&P 500 .SPX both slid.
MSCI's gauge of stocks across the globe .MIWD00000PUS fell 0.46%, about 6% below its all-time peak in February.
The sell-off in equities was the result of a tremendous rally over the past week, said Mike Zigmont, head of trading at Harvest Volatility Management in New York.
"There's no news headline that screams bearish catalyst to me," he said. "But conversely, other than the nonfarm payrolls data, the past two weeks haven't had super bullish catalysts either."
The rally in U.S. stocks accelerated last week after strikingly upbeat May jobs data bolstered the notion that the worst of the economic fallout from the pandemic was over.
The benchmark S&P 500, which erased its losses for the year on Monday, slid back into negative territory and is about 5% below its all-time high.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI fell 300.14 points, or 1.09%, to 27,272.3. The S&P 500 .SPX lost 25.21 points, or 0.78%, to 3,207.18 and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC added 29.01 points, or 0.29%, to 9,953.75.
Attention now turns again to the U.S. Federal Reserve, which kicked off a two-day meeting on Tuesday. No major policy announcements are expected when the session ends on Wednesday, but the U.S. central bank will issue its first economic projections since December. Investors will be watching as the Fed attempts to gauge the economic cost of widespread pandemic-related lockdowns, as well as any hints of future stimulus.
The safe-haven yen JPY= and Swiss franc CHF= both gained against the dollar for a second straight day this week.
The yen rose to one-week highs against the dollar, while the Swiss franc climbed to its highest in more than two months versus the greenback.
