A Busy Day and Week Ends Lower...SPX, NDX Close Lower after AAPL, AMZN EPS...Breadth Weakens...Communication Services, Utilities and Industrials Led Sectors...

© 2025

SPX -101.38, 6,238, gapped lower after futures fell Thursday following earnings reactions from AMZN and AAPL, and more tariff comments from the President.  The Jobs report 73K vs 106K consensus produced a 31-point trading range in the first 15 minutes, but only a 6-point change during the first one hour.  After the open SPX fell on above average selling volume  and another 72 points in the first 45 minutes and bounced into a trading range until the close.

ISM was 48.0 vs. 49.5 consensus and the Commissioner of BLS was fired.  Later Adrianna Kugler resigned as Fed Governor effective August 8.  Friday was a busy news day during a busy news week including FOMC, four mega-cap earnings: MSFT, META, AMZN, AAPL, IPOs AMBQ and FIG, and above consensus GDP along with other regularly scheduled economic announcements.

Based on the initial price reaction, institutions liked the results from MSFT, META and AAPL but not AMZN.  All four stocks attracted more sellers than buyers and faded from their initial open.

NDX -1.96%, opened lower and closed lower. 

DJI, 43,588 -1.23%, closed lower led by weakness in AMZN, GS, UNH, MSFT, CAT.   

Breadth weakened further on Friday.

TSLA -5.64, -1.83%, fell lower in its channel.

AVGO -5.06, -1.72%, formed a potential 2-day bull flag pattern.

META -23.43, -3.03%, gave back 30% of Thursday’s positive EPS reaction.

MSFT -9.39, -1.76%, gave back half of Thursday’s positive EPS reaction.

AAPL -5.19, -2.50%, reversed an initial move up on a EPS and sales beat, iPhone sales exceed estimates, active installed base hits new high.

AMZN -19.36, -8.27%, beat EPS, sales, expects Q3 operating income of $18B less than $19.5B estimates, a negative EPS reaction
