Market Week: June 29, 2026

The Markets (as of market close June 26, 2026)

For just the second time in the last 13 weeks, both the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ recorded weekly losses. AI stocks, which had driven the market for much of the year, experienced a notable drop, despite favorable earnings reports from some major microchip companies. Investors moved away from tech to more value-driven sectors, such as health care, real estate, and utilities. Consumer staples shares gained ground, helping to push small caps higher. The Dow held firm for much of the week. Crude oil prices fell to pre-Iran war levels as shipping traffic accelerated through the Strait of Hormuz.
