12:31 PM EDT, 09/09/2025 (MT Newswires) -- US equity indexes were mixed in midday trading on Tuesday amid gains in government bond yields following a downward revision in annual nonfarm payrolls.

The Nasdaq Composite rose less than 0.1% to 21,800.5. The S&P 500 was little changed at 6,495.1. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.2% to 45,590.4.

Materials and industrials led the decliners, while energy and communication services were among the top gainers intraday.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics' preliminary estimate of its benchmark revision to nonfarm payrolls is for a downward revision of 911,000 jobs, or 0.6% of total employment, the BLS announced on Tuesday. BLS said that the absolute average revision over the last 10 years is 0.2%. The final annual revision will be incorporated into payrolls in February 2026 with the release of data for January.

Treasury yields rose, with the 10-year up 3.6 basis points to 4.08% and the two-year yield climbed 4.9 basis points to 3.54%.

In company news, UnitedHealth Group's ( UNH ) shares jumped 3.7% intraday, the top gainer on the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq, after the company said interim data suggest about 78% of its membership is in 4-star or higher plans, consistent with expectations and past performance.
