    2026 02/16 - 02/20. Wall Street spins into a relief rally as the Supreme Court ruling sparks a market surge amid rising yields and crude prices
    Feb 22 2026

    This week, Wall Street rallied following the Supreme Court's decision to curtail presidential tariff powers, boosting the S&P 500 and Nasdaq amid eased trade tensions. However, rising Treasury yields suggest economic resilience, while crude oil spikes due to U.S.-Iran tensions signal potential market volatility.

    Investors should brace for critical corporate earnings and inflation data ahead, as these factors are poised to significantly shape market sentiment and strategic decisions in the coming days.

  • 2026 02/09 - 02/13. Wall Street faces turmoil as tech stocks decline amid mixed economic signals in an uncertain landscape

    2026 02/09 - 02/13. Wall Street faces turmoil as tech stocks decline amid mixed economic signals in an uncertain landscape
    Feb 15 2026

    This week saw heightened market volatility as technology stocks faced significant selling pressure amidst concerns over AI disruption and elevated valuations. The Dow Jones initially surged but retreated sharply, with mixed economic indicators, a strong labor data clashing with weak retail sales and plummeting housing demand. Encouragingly, a subdued inflation report led to lower Treasury yields, fostering hope for interest rate cuts. Investors now turn to a compressed trading week with crucial retail earnings on the horizon.

  • 2026 02/02 - 02/06. Wall Street's Dow Jones Index surpasses 50,000 amid a groundbreaking U.S.-India trade pact, While the tech sector faces volatility and cryptocurrency markets struggle

    2026 02/02 - 02/06. Wall Street's Dow Jones Index surpasses 50,000 amid a groundbreaking U.S.-India trade pact, While the tech sector faces volatility and cryptocurrency markets struggle
    Feb 8 2026

    This week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average eclipsed 50,000 points, fueled by a landmark trade agreement between the U.S. and India. However, other indexes, particularly in the tech sector, exhibit significant volatility driven by heavy AI investments.

    Meanwhile, cryptocurrency faces a troubling decline, labeled a "death spiral," while Treasury yields fall amid disappointing labor data, and crude oil prices drop amid shifting U.S.-Iran relations.

    Looking ahead, investors will closely monitor inflation reports and corporate earnings, as well as the effects of geopolitical shifts and AI spending on economic sentiment.
