Markets Analysis — Upcoming Week

The latest completed week left the Nasdaq down 3.37%, S&P 500 down 2.68% and Russell 2000 down 2.05%. The coming week’s test is whether Nvidia’s board inquiry keeps pressure on semiconductors—AMD fell 11.05% and NVDA 8.80%—or buyers rotate toward relative winners such as Amazon, Berkshire and real estate.

Oil’s 12.76% weekly fall and Bitcoin’s 3.46% retreat raise the stakes for energy and risk appetite. Watch the 5.26% 30-year yield, the peso near the weak end of its 52-week range, and whether the S&P can stabilize below its 7,844.52 high.

Commodities & Crypto

Ticker Price Change % 52-Week Range
Bitcoin $74,442.01 -$5,963.28 -7.42% $57,747.766–$107,428.26
Oil — WTI $90.83 -$5.26 -5.47% $54.98–$119.48

📢 Market Alert: AMD fell 11.05%, TSLA lost 10.40%, Bitcoin slid 7.42% and WTI dropped 5.47% as the week closed with a hard reset in tech and risk assets.

⛽ Mortgage & Gas

BOTTOM LINE: The S&P remains in the upper half of its annual range, but this week belonged to sellers—especially in growth stocks.
