Instacart (NASDAQ:CART) shares slipped 3.2%, retracing a portion of the 12% surge seen on its inaugural trading day following a successful listing for the online grocery delivery service.

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) shares declined by 0.2% as unions representing employees at the tech giant’s French stores called for a strike ahead of the iPhone 15 launch on Friday and Saturday, demanding improved compensation and working conditions.
