Dow Jones (.DJI) Gains as Alphabet Drags on Nasdaq

Dow Jones (.DJI) Gains as Alphabet Drags on Nasdaq

Dow Jones Industrial Average finished up on Monday, outperforming the S&P 500 and Nasdaq as traders moved into industrials and banks and took profits in Alphabet and other big tech stocks. The Dow added 145.10 points to end at 51,709.80 after the closing bell. It was the index's first full day of trading since the Juneteenth market holiday on Friday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average works unlike the Nasdaq. The Dow has 30 stocks and is price-weighted—stocks with higher prices swing it more, even if they’re smaller companies. That design let the Dow hold up better than tech this week.

Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI) rises as Caterpillar, Visa lift blue chips while Nasdaq slips

Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI) rises as Caterpillar, Visa lift blue chips while Nasdaq slips

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose on Monday morning, beating the broader S&P 500 and the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite, as industrial and financial shares did more of the work than the headline index move suggested. LSEG data on Reuters showed the Dow up 214.78 points, or 0.42%, at 51,779.48, while the S&P 500 was up 0.11% and the Nasdaq was down 0.40%; the figures were delayed by at least 15 minutes. The session mattered because U.S. shares reopened into regular trading after Friday’s Juneteenth closure, with investors trying to decide whether easing Middle East risk can hold down oil prices and inflation pressure. The NYSE lists Juneteenth National Independence Day as a Friday, June 19 market holiday in 2026, and its core cash-equity session runs from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET.

Pelosi family positions in AI, Big Tech grab attention after new trades

Pelosi family positions in AI, Big Tech grab attention after new trades

Pelos family filings show they continue to hold major positions in leading U.S. tech and AI infrastructure stocks, despite selling a large amount of Apple, Nvidia and Amazon back in December. The House filings show these holdings are listed as spouse-owned, not owned directly by Nancy Pelosi. Semiconductor names jumped, pushing Wall Street higher in Thursday's final trading before the Juneteenth holiday. The Philadelphia semiconductor index finished up 6.4%. For the week, the Nasdaq rose 2.43%, while the S&P 500 gained 0.93% and the Dow ended 0.71% higher.

Dow surges almost 930 points after the bell as oil drops on Iran strike reversal

Dow surges almost 930 points after the bell as oil drops on Iran strike reversal

Dow Jones bounces back after Thursday’s close, gaining 929.60 points, or 1.86%, to finish at 50,848.38. That’s up from Wednesday’s close at 49,918.78. The rebound lifts the index after the previous day’s selloff, but it’s still under last week’s 51,561.93 close for June 4. Stocks picked up speed after President Donald Trump called off planned military strikes on Iran. That move eased some nerves over a wider conflict in the region and helped calm energy markets. Reuters said U.S. stocks were already moving higher after losses on Wednesday, even before Trump’s announcement. Oil prices fell hard after the news.

Visa, Mastercard get court win in $38 billion swipe-fee case

Visa, Mastercard get court win in $38 billion swipe-fee case

Visa and Mastercard’s new $38 billion deal with merchants won preliminary approval from a U.S. judge Tuesday, moving forward a settlement in the long-running dispute over credit card fees. U.S. District Judge Brian Cogan in Brooklyn signed off on the deal, calling it “fair, reasonable, and adequate.” A court ruling could impact swipe fees—interchange fees that are part of nearly all card payments and are often baked into retail prices. Visa and Mastercard credit-card swipe fees hit $118.8 billion in the U.S. in 2025, up from $111.2 billion in 2024, according to the Merchants Payments Coalition, which represents retailers and merchants.

The stock bounced back after falling to $312.40 on Wednesday. Still, it finished the week about 0.9% under its May 29 close of $326.36.

Visa Inc. starts a shortened trading week after closing at $328.88. The New York Stock Exchange did not open Monday for Memorial Day.

Visa Stock Jumps as Earnings Beat and $20 Billion Buyback Ease Spending Fears

Visa Stock Jumps as Earnings Beat and $20 Billion Buyback Ease Spending Fears

Shares of Visa Inc. jumped roughly 5% before the bell Wednesday, after the payments giant topped Wall Street profit forecasts, bumped up its full-year earnings guidance, and rolled out plans for a fresh $20 billion buyback. The report dropped just as investors were hunting for any indication that pricier fuel, persistent inflation, or turmoil in the Middle East might be slowing card spending or cross-border travel. Visa’s figures carry weight outside of its own shares, since it collects fees from payments running through its network—not by holding credit risk on loans.

Top 10 Growth Stocks to Watch in Q2 2026 as AI Spending Faces Its Hardest Test Yet

Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta are set to report before the bell Wednesday, and that’s where the Q2 2026 growth focus lands. Visa, T-Mobile, FICO, NXP, Corning, and Starbucks numbers are already on the table for investors to chew over. On Tuesday, tech stocks took another hit—fresh worries over AI spending dragged the Nasdaq down 0.90%, the S&P 500 slipped 0.49%, and the Dow edged lower by 0.05%. Earnings season is entering the show-me phase. According to Reuters, AI capex—capital poured into chips and data centers—is on track to hit nearly $600 billion this year at Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta and Amazon. Now, the question for investors: is all that spending moving the needle on cloud revenue, ad sales and cash flow, or just padding the expense line?

Visa’s report is in focus largely because its payment volumes give an early peek at spending trends. According to Reuters, Visa managed to post higher payment volumes, even as economic uncertainty lingered. March saw U.S. consumer spending beat expectations, helping to lift Visa’s results.

American Express Company dropped 4.3% to $318.55 as of 8:43 a.m. EDT Friday, despite the New York card giant topping first-quarter profit forecasts.

American Express is getting extra attention these days, seen as an early read on how higher-income consumers are spending. Cardmember spending jumped at its quickest clip in three years, Reuters said, despite lingering headwinds from inflation, fuel prices, and global tensions dragging on travel demand.

Dow Jones Today: Industrial Average Rises as Iran Ceasefire Hopes Offset Oil and Fed Fears

Dow Jones Today: Industrial Average Rises as Iran Ceasefire Hopes Offset Oil and Fed Fears

By 11:50 a.m. ET on Monday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 83.20 points, or 0.18%, to 46,587.48. Wall Street found some footing after a rough March, with optimism swirling around possible 45-day Iran ceasefire negotiations. The S&P 500 was up 0.25%, while the Nasdaq Composite pushed higher by 0.40%. This is significant: with the Dow constructed as a price-weighted index of 30 big U.S. names, pricier stocks pack more punch than in market-cap-weighted gauges. Monday’s uptick hinted at a return of buyers to blue chips—though conviction was clearly thin.

US Stock Market Today: Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq Rise as Iran Ceasefire Hopes Clash With Inflation Fears

Stocks in the U.S. moved up on Monday, with the Dow adding 83 points, the S&P 500 rising 0.25%, and the Nasdaq ahead 0.40% as of 11:50 a.m. ET. Fresh reports of Iran ceasefire talks seemed to keep momentum going after last week’s sharpest rally in four months. Bank stocks and chip plays set the tone—JPMorgan Chase and Visa buoyed financials, while Seagate surged on a Morgan Stanley upgrade to its top picks. “March was a tough month for stocks and investors really just want to find a reason to be optimistic,” said Melissa Brown, managing director of investment decision research at SimCorp. The stakes are rising: in the next few days, investors will get a clearer look at whether the oil shock out of the Middle East is morphing into a wider U.S. inflation threat. The consumer price index—set for release Friday—is forecast to jump 0.9% month-on-month, according to a Reuters poll. Early reads from Delta Air Lines and Constellation Brands will also provide clues on just how much higher fuel bills and war-driven turmoil are squeezing U.S. companies. “The market already has inflation on the brain,” said Patrick Ryan, chief investment strategist at Madison Investments.

Mastercard’s BVNK Deal Puts Trade Finance Tokenization – and Solana – in Focus

Mastercard’s BVNK Deal Puts Trade Finance Tokenization – and Solana – in Focus

Mastercard has struck a deal to acquire BVNK for as much as $1.8 billion, intensifying the race among heavyweight financial firms looking to embed blockchain into everyday payments and trade finance. Unveiled Tuesday, the agreement hands the card giant a stronger position in stablecoin infrastructure—digital tokens tied to currencies like the dollar—across remittances, business transactions, and payouts. The timing matters because a string of recent experiments is starting to converge. Just last week, Aon reported what it says is the first stablecoin insurance-premium payment handled by a major broker—settling with USDC on Ethereum and PayPal USD over Solana. Earlier, in a February report, Citi detailed its own internal proof of concept with PwC and Solana, converting a bill of exchange into a token and running it through a full simulated issuance-to-settlement workflow.
