NEW YORK, Aug 22 — Wall Street’s main indexes pared gains today, as US Treasury yields rose on growing worries about interest rates staying higher for longer, while gains in Nvidia shares fizzled out in the run up to the chip designer’s earnings.

Other big technology and growth stocks such as Microsoft, Alphabet and Tesla rose between 0.7 per cent and 2.7 per cent. At 9.59am ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 21.71 points, or 0.06 per cent, at 34,441.98, the S&P 500 was up 2.95 points, or 0.07 per cent, at 4,402.72, and the Nasdaq Composite was up 19.74 points, or 0.15 per cent, at 13,517.33.
