DJI, RUT, SPX, NDX Closed Lower...SPX Below Average Volume...Breadth Weakened...VIX Rose...


© 2026


SPX -114.75, 6,477 made at its lowest close in six months.   Breadth weakened and was negative as decliners led on both the NYSE and Nasdaq exchanges.  A lack of clarity on both the Middle East, including the Strait of Hormuz and the future range of potential oil prices, seemed to give market makers an excuse to drop bids as the SPX finished with its largest decline this month on below average volume. 

NVDA -7.44, -4.16%, fell on 186.1 million shares. 

MU -26.63, -6.97%, formed a red candle and made its lowest close in over two months.  GOOGL introduced its TurboQuant algorithm this week, which some believe may lead to lower memory requirements for LLM’s.
