Wendy's Weekly STOCK MARKET Report "Wall Street was volatile" Presented by Wendy Nelson
Market Week: November 9, 2026
The Markets (as of market close November 6, 2026)
Wall Street was volatile, with investors shunning risk after the November midterm elections. Concerns about the political impact on the technology sector, particularly AI, triggered a notable sell-off last Thursday. A partial rebound at the end of the week's trading, likely buoyed by an unexpectedly strong jobs report (see below), wasn't enough to reverse prior market losses. Each of the benchmark indexes listed here declined as deteriorating investor sentiment permeated most sectors. Consumer discretionary shares showed resilience, as did communication services and real estate. Energy and information technology sustained notable losses. Long-term bond yields remained steady compared to the prior few weeks. Crude oil prices declined, although the risk of renewed U.S.-Iran military escalation could threaten Middle East oil supplies.
