NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street ended lower at the beginning of a holiday-shortened week on Tuesday, as rising U.S. Treasury yields pressured interest rate sensitive megacap shares.

Growth stocks dragged the tech-laden Nasdaq down the most. The S&P 500 joined the Nasdaq in negative territory.

"Higher (Treasury) yields are pressuring growth stocks, and on the other hand industrials, utilities and energy are outperforming," said Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group in Omaha, Nebraska. "Money's flowing out of the growth areas and working its way to the value side of things, which is a microcosm of what we’ve seen all year."

"It’s important to remember that there are other groups that can take up the baton when the high-flyers come back to earth," Detrick added.

Shares of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) Inc tumbled after a review by Reuters of an internal schedule revealed the electric vehicle maker plans to scale back production at its Shanghai plant.

With Tuesday's move, Tesla stock has lost nearly 70% of its value this year.

Rising Treasury yields put interest rate sensitive growth stocks under pressure, a recurring theme in 2022. For the year, growth shares have plunged over 30% compared with value's slide of about 7.5% over the same period.

With just four trading days remaining in 2022, all three indexes are on course to post their biggest annual loss since 2008, the nadir of the global financial crisis.

"It was a bad year for stocks, but a worse year for bonds. That’s extremely rare," Detrick said. "It's an unfortunate reminder that the markets can sometimes surprise."

Beijing eased its strict COVID-19 curbs, which have battered the $17 trillion economy, fueling hopes of a revival in global demand and an improving supply chain.

On the economic front, the Commerce Department's initial take on the U.S. goods trade balance showed the deficit narrowing by 15.6%, while S&P Case-Shiller showed home price growth in its 20-city composite cooled to 8.6% year-on-year, the lowest reading since November 2020.

According to preliminary data, the S&P 500 lost 15.40 points, or 0.41%, to end at 3,829.42 points, while the Nasdaq Composite lost 143.60 points, or 1.37%, to 10,354.26. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 37.80 points, or 0.11%, to 33,241.73.

U.S.-listed shares of Chinese firms including JD (NASDAQ:JD).Com Inc, Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) Group Holding Ltd and Pinduoduo (NASDAQ:PDD) Inc jumped after Beijing announced it was relaxing travel restrictions.

Southwest Airlines (NYSE:LUV) Co tumbled after harsh weather forced the discount commercial carrier to lead its peers in cancellations. The broader S&P 1500 Airlines index also ended the session in the red.
