Wendy's Weekly STOCK MARKET Report "The benchmark indexes closed the short week in the red" Presented by Wendy Nelson
Market Week: September 14, 2026
The Markets (as of market close September 11, 2026)
Despite strong returns last Friday, it was not enough to offset losses accumulated earlier in the week. Each of the benchmark indexes listed here closed the holiday-shortened week in the red as investors tried to reconcile rising energy prices, increasing inflation, climbing Treasury yields, and the increasing likelihood of an interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve. Among the market sectors, only energy and communication services saw gains. Health care stocks fell more than 3.5%. Ten-year Treasury yields closed near 5.0%, reaching their highest levels in nearly three years. Crude oil prices surged to levels not seen in several months amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.
