US Stock Market Today: S&P 500, Nasdaq Hit Six-Month Lows as Oil Surge Rattles Wall Street

Wall Street’s retreat accelerated on Friday, dragging both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq to levels last seen more than six months ago. Tech names took the biggest hits as investors pulled out, while oil kept climbing—President Donald Trump’s 10-day warning to Iran failed to ease anxiety over the Strait of Hormuz. As of 11:40 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 305.57 points, a 0.66% drop. The S&P 500 slipped 0.70% to 6,432.06, while the Nasdaq Composite tumbled 1.10% to 21,171.61.

Can Vanguard’s VTI ETF Really Turn $1,000 Into $1.39 Million? Why the Total Stock Market Fund Is Back in Focus

Vanguard’s Total Stock Market ETF is back in the headlines after fresh weekend takes from Motley Fool and Australia’s The Bull. The pitch hasn’t changed: Both outlets say the low-fee fund still works as a straightforward path to long-term exposure across the entire U.S. market. On Saturday, a Motley Fool article crunched the numbers—if you started with $1,000 and added $200 every month, sticking to VTI’s average returns over the past ten years, you’d be looking at around $1.39 million after 30 years.

MARKET CALENDAR

Key Events Today

The catalysts most likely to move markets.

#1

U.S. index futures reopen at 18:00 ET

This is the clearest scheduled U.S.-market price-discovery point today and can transmit weekend news into equity-index futures before Monday's cash session.

#2

New Zealand retail sales at 18:45 ET

The Q2 retail package can move NZD and regional risk sentiment. Spillover to U.S. assets is usually secondary unless the result is unusually large.

#3

No scheduled domestic U.S. data or corporate reports

The absence of U.S. releases, earnings, IPO pricings and split events leaves fewer scheduled catalysts, increasing the relative importance of weekend headlines and positioning at the futures reopen.
