The S&P 500 finished higher this week, but 57% of stocks declined and 8 out of 11 sectors lost ground as the market narrowed to a single trade. In this comprehensive Weekly Market Recap sponsored by Siebert Financial, Chief Investment Officer Mark Malek breaks down how Nvidia's historic $442 Billion single-day market cap surge masked a sharp deceleration in the broader U.S. economy.
Mark examines the macro shadow data, including Q2 GDP slowing to 1.5%, new home sales plunging 10.5%, July Core PCE stalling at 3.3%, and Consumer Expectations tumbling to 68.2. Plus, a deep dive into the top 3 moving stocks of the week—Nvidia (NVDA) jumping to a $5.5 Trillion valuation on $108B guidance, Salesforce (CRM) ripping 22.6% on ClaudeForce and software AI monetization, and PayPal (PYPL) crashing 12.7% as buyout talks collapsed. Finally, get the full forward preview for next week: the August Jobs Report, JOLTS, ISM PMIs, and
earnings from Broadcom and Dell.
