S&P 500 Holds Ground After Inflation Data as AI Stocks Lend Support

Wall Street Pushes Higher as Dell’s AI Momentum Fuels Trade

Stocks in the U.S. moved higher Friday, tacking on gains to their record streak. Dell Technologies jumped sharply and bets on a possible U.S.-Iran deal had investors sticking with artificial intelligence names and other risk assets. Stocks are still climbing to new highs as May ends, even with inflation up and growth slowing. The S&P 500 was at 7,574.93, the Nasdaq Composite at 26,933.85, and the Dow at 50,901.91 in late morning, according to Reuters/LSEG data, with prices delayed at least 15 minutes.

Ford Stock Just Became Wall Street’s Surprise AI Trade. The Rally Is Getting Hard to Ignore

Ford Stock Just Became Wall Street’s Surprise AI Trade. The Rally Is Getting Hard to Ignore

Ford Motor shares go into Friday’s session near their highest levels in years, after a fresh rally tied less to pickup trucks than to a bet that the Dearborn automaker can sell battery storage into the power-hungry AI economy. The stock closed Thursday at $16.65, up 4.9%, and is now up 34% over the past month, Barron’s reported. General Motors rose just 0.3% on Thursday and is up 7% over the same month, leaving Ford’s move looking less like a broad Detroit trade and more like a Ford-specific re-rating.

Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires Last Week: Merval Rebounds, but Oil Shock and Inflation Loom

Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires Last Week: Merval Rebounds, but Oil Shock and Inflation Loom

Buenos Aires shares bounced back Friday, sending the S&P Merval 2.15% higher to end at 2,626,114.83 points. Still, comparing the Feb. 27 and March 6 closes, the index wrapped up the week roughly 0.6% lower than its opening level. This is coming to a head fast—traders don’t have room to relax. Argentina’s February CPI lands March 12. The central bank’s REM survey, out March 5, pushed the consensus for February inflation up to 2.7%, compared with the previous reading. Core inflation? Now at 2.5%. The oil shock just stirs the pot further, clouding the inflation picture.

Egyptian Exchange Stock Market Last Week: EGX30 Suffers Worst Week Since June Despite CIB-Led Bounce

Egyptian Exchange Stock Market Last Week: EGX30 Suffers Worst Week Since June Despite CIB-Led Bounce

The EGX30 in Egypt dropped 3.5% last week—its sharpest fall since June. After tumbling for four straight days, the index finally turned around on Thursday and climbed 2.29% to finish at 47,516.44. Commercial International Bank surged 3.7% and was the main force behind the move higher. The decline stands out as Cairo’s stock exchange works to ramp up liquidity and bring in fresh capital—right as tensions in the region unsettle investors. On March 1, the Egyptian Exchange introduced EGX30 futures, giving traders a tool to hedge swings or bet on the index’s moves. At the same time, authorities finished a fair-value review of state-owned Banque du Caire, moving the long-anticipated IPO another step forward.

Mexico’s stock market just had a bruising week — what hit the Bolsa Mexicana?

Mexico’s stock market just had a bruising week — what hit the Bolsa Mexicana?

Mexico’s benchmark S&P/BMV IPC tumbled 5.73% across the week, wrapping up Friday at 67,312.78. Timing played a role here. The slide landed just as investors were recalibrating expectations for growth and interest rates after an unexpected dip in U.S. payrolls and a spike in oil prices—a combination that usually deals a blow to emerging market risk assets, with cyclical sectors taking the initial hit.

Moscow Exchange Last Week: MOEX Gains 2% as Oil Rally Lifts Russian Stocks

Moscow Exchange Last Week: MOEX Gains 2% as Oil Rally Lifts Russian Stocks

The MOEX Russia Index, priced in roubles, climbed roughly 2% to finish at 2,854.11 on Friday, wrapping up the trading week from March 2 to 6. But the RTS, which is calculated in dollars, edged down by about 0.5% for the period, according to market data. This time, it's crude that's pushing things around—not earnings. Brent jumped to $92.69 a barrel by Friday’s close, soaring 27% for the week. That’s the steepest weekly climb since spring 2020. The catalyst: conflict involving Iran that choked off traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, the key Gulf oil corridor. “Every day the Strait stays closed, prices will go higher,” UBS analyst Giovanni Staunovo told Reuters.

Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) loses more than 5% in three-session week after rare halt

Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) loses more than 5% in three-session week after rare halt

Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange’s main index slipped 1.4% on Friday, bringing its weekly loss to over 5% after three straight days of declines that followed an unusual two-day market closure. Aldar Properties, Emirates Telecommunications Group, and Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank weighed most heavily on shares during Friday’s session. It's relevant now since ADX and Dubai's exchange stayed closed March 2 and 3—missile and drone attacks targeted airports, ports, even residential districts in the UAE. Closures like this almost never happen unless it’s a holiday or a day of mourning. Trading only resumed Wednesday, so investors had to recalibrate everything in a shortened stretch.

The gain stood out during a week rattled by oil-shock anxieties and fresh inflation concerns across Asia. Asian shares took a steep hit on March 4, with markets on edge over a potential energy shock, according to Reuters. Bank Negara Malaysia, for its part, left its overnight policy rate untouched at 2.75% on Thursday, maintaining its stance as external risks heightened.

Last Week on Borsa Italiana: FTSE MIB Drops 6.5% as Banks Sink, Nexi Slides, Leonardo Holds Up

The FTSE MIB in Italy wrapped up Friday at 44,152.26—a 6.48% slide since Feb. 27, putting it sharply under the 52-week peak of 47,650.97 reached just the week before. Milan saw that reversal come quickly. The selloff was broad. Over the week, Europe’s STOXX 600 slid 5.5%, with both Frankfurt and Paris enduring their steepest drops since April last year; Madrid fared even worse, marking its biggest weekly decline in four years. Banks retreated 1.7% on Friday. “Europe was a bit more exposed” to the pain from higher oil and stagflation risks—sluggish expansion mixed with sticky inflation—said Ciaran Callaghan, head of European equity research at Amundi.

JSE slides nearly 10% for the week as oil spike and risk-off hits South African stocks

South African equities tumbled last week, with the FTSE/JSE All Share settling at 116,583 on Friday—a drop of roughly 9.2% from the previous week’s close. The Top 40 blue-chip index wrapped up at 108,597, marking a 9.7% weekly slide. Earlier in the week, the All Share had touched 129,339 before retreating, according to data. The broader rush out of risk assets picked up as violence in the Middle East intensified, putting a bid under oil and driving investors to the dollar. Friday saw the rand slip to 16.72 per dollar, the Top-40 index off nearly 2% for the day, and yields on the 2035 government bond spiking 19.5 basis points to 8.435%. “Like many emerging market currencies, the rand has been weighed down by rising global risk aversion and higher oil prices,” said Andre Cilliers, currency strategist at TreasuryONE.

Indonesia Stocks Sink Again as Fitch Cut, MSCI Pressure Deepen Jakarta Market Rout

Fresh selling hit Indonesia’s stock market by the end of last week, as the Indonesia Stock Exchange reported equities finished March 2-6 in the red. Market capitalization dropped 7.85% to 13,627 trillion rupiah. The Jakarta benchmark is already down 7.5% for the year, ranking among Asia’s laggards. This isn’t just a blip anymore. The selloff has investors factoring in a second downgrade to Indonesia’s sovereign outlook this year, jitters over President Prabowo Subianto’s fiscal plans, and the specter of an MSCI downgrade if transparency lapses aren’t addressed.
