According to Deutsche Bank's Early Morning Reid, US equities presented a mixed picture. The S&P 500 index slipped 0.22%, driven by a sharp sell-off in chip stocks.
In contrast, the equal-weighted S&P 500 advanced 0.24% to a fresh record high, suggesting that the broader market remained resilient despite weakness in the technology sector.
This divergence highlights the narrow leadership of megacap tech names in the recent rally, with the equal-weight measure reflecting more balanced participation across sectors.
