NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / February 7, 2017 / U.S. markets experienced a volatile day of trading Tuesday, but managed to snap the streak of two consecutive days of steep selloffs. The Dow Jones Industrial Average touched a low of 23,778.74 before settling to close at 24,912.77, an increase of 2.33 percent, while the S&P 500 Index hit a low of 2,593.07 before settling to close at 2,695.14, up 1.74 percent. The Nasdaq Composite Index rallied 2.13 percent to close at 7,115.88. The CBOE Volatility Index, a widely respected gauge of market volatility on Wall Street, rebounded to 29.69, after closing at 37.32 on Monday.

"Widespread and excessive optimism left stocks vulnerable to increased volatility as bond yields have moved off their lows," said Bruce Bittles, chief investment strategist at Baird, according to CNBC. "While there is some early evidence that selling pressures are becoming exhausted, and stocks could soon see relief, the broad market is seeing meaningful deterioration."
