▸ Wall Street extends record-break­ing streak des­pite visa fears for Big Tech

▸ Treas­ury bonds exper­i­ence mod­est selling as traders await Fed com­ment­ary

▸ Dol­lar retreats against rivals and European stocks edge down­wards

Wall Street stocks exten­ded a record­break­ing streak yes­ter­day des­pite warn­ings that Pres­id­ent Don­ald Trump's new visa rule change could hit big US tech­no­logy com­pan­ies.

The pres­id­ent announced late on Fri­day that he planned to raise the applic­a­tion fee for a H-1B for­eign worker visa to $100,000.

Tech com­pan­ies in Sil­icon Val­ley — whose sur­ging share prices have car­ried US stock mar­kets to new highs in recent years — have typ­ic­ally relied heav­ily on the visa to hire skilled engin­eers, sci­ent­ists and coders from over­seas.

Wall Street's blue-chip S&P 500 index was up 0.1 per cent by lunch­time in New York while the tech-heavy Nas­daq Com­pos­ite index had risen 0.2 per cent.
