The S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indices closed down 0.1% on Friday, just below record highs, while the Dow slightly increased. Markets were assessing the latest economic data and the sustainability of this year's AI-driven rally. The technology sector saw declines: Nvidia dropped 3.2% for the second session in a row, leading to decreases in the chip sector, including Broadcom (-4.4%), Qualcomm (-1.4%), Arm (-0.3%), and Micron (-3.2%). Apple fell 0.4% due to the withdrawal of AI software updates in the EU over regulatory concerns. In contrast, the consumer goods sector rose, with Amazon gaining 1.6%. The communication services sector was also up, with Alphabet increasing by 1.4%. Regarding data, S&P PMI indices released at the session's opening exceeded expectations, countering the view of moderate economic growth after a decline in jobless claims, housing starts, and retail sales earlier this week. For the week, the S&P 500 rose by 0.8%, the Nasdaq by 0.1%, and the Dow by 1.8%, marking its best week since May.
