Equity markets were mixed last week with tech underperforming for the third consecutive week. The S&P 500 fell 0.5% as the AI trade continued to unwind amidst growing concerns about capital constraints. Oil prices were up ~5% trading to fresh highs. However, Treasury yields pulled back. This helped the equal-weight and small/midcap indices outperform.
The S&P 500 is starting the week strongly as the Sports Equinox falls upon us- the 33rd time in history that the MLB, NFL, NBA, and NHL all host games on the same calendar day. The S&P is up 0.7% and near its highs. The equal-weight is trailing however as mega caps and tech lead (NYSE 100 +1.4%, NYSE Semis +3.5%). The Russell 2000 is in line. After a slow start tech moved higher, with neoclouds and “powered shell providers” that Musk questioned over the weekend are rallying sharply off their lows. Tech, Industrials and Consumer Discretionary are leading as the AI-linked stocks are rallying. Healthcare is lagging with Med Devices and managed care broadly lower.
Brent crude is down ~1%. US natural gas is down as well but off its lows. Meanwhile European gas continues to reach new highs. Gold and silver are up modestly as is copper. Ag is lower following the Brazilian election and Russia-Ukraine peace talks. Crypto is getting hit with Bitcoin struggling to hold $80K.
