© 2026


SPX -54.67, 7,631, made its lowest close in 21 days after reports of continuing conflict in the Middle East and rising oil prices.  The SPX formed a spinning top, close to average volume as it rallied from its low in the last 60 minutes.  Once again, SPX closed below 7,700. 

Breadth weakened as decliners led on the NYSE and NASDAQ exchanges.  The VIX closed visually higher.  RUT 2,920 fell on Tuesday.

SPX advancers: MRNA EIX PCG HPQ CF BG HWM DLTR ADM CVS CTVA.
SPX decliners: AXON CDNS IBKR CRWD DELL ODFL COIN CIEN SNPS DDOG.

After-hours: 
DELL +27.00, +6.35%, EPS $7.04 beats $4.91 estimate, sales $46.971B beat $44.953B estimate.
PANW -7.49, -2.07%, EPS $1.02 beats $0.98 estimate, sales $3.410B beat $3.352B estimate. 

SPCX closed at 142.23, -1.46, on volume of 53.6 million shares. Our view is that SPCX, with no earnings, remains an overvalued speculation.  IPO at 135 on June 12. 

SPY -5.27, -0.69%, below average volume of 41 million shares, watch for a potential bounce above Tuesday’s high $764.67
