KONTAN.CO.ID - NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stocks and government debt yields fell on Thursday after the release of a whistleblower complaint that accused President Donald Trump of pressing Ukraine to investigate one of his main political rivals in next year's U.S. presidential election. Yields on the benchmark U.S. 10-year Treasury note fell below 1.7% for most of the session and stocks on Wall Street slid, leading a gauge of equity performance around the globe to pare gains and trade lower on the day. European shares closed solidly in the black after the Chinese commerce ministry said the United States and China were making preparations to ensure "positive progress" during the next round of U.S.-Sino trade trades.
