By June 15th, 2026General Articles2 min read

The S&P 500 index futures finally returned to its propensity to finish the week on an extreme end of its range. This time, Friday’s session finished by printing fresh yearly lows and closing at those lows.

Overnight, bulls held onto some of Thursday’s after-hours gains initially, but faded early morning after reaching a high of 6568.50. By the regular session open, bears were holding resistance near Monday’s low, just under the psychological 6500 level. Sellers dominated throughout the day despite some minor recovery attempts. Bulls managed to hold support near 6450 through the morning, but that level gave way after lunch as bears resumed control. The decline continued steadily into the close.

The session ended near the day’s low at 6412.25, a swoon of 112.75 handles. After hours, the low extended to 6389. For the week that adds up to a loss of 146.75 handles or 2.24%.

Next week brings a small handful of earnings reports, fedspeak throughout the week, including Powell Monday morning, delayed February US retail sales data on Wednesday, all capped by the March jobs report and a market holiday on Good Friday.

Among the top components of the index, Walmart Inc (NYSE: WMT) stood out as the biggest gainer, rising $0.71 or 0.58% to close at $122.89.

That performance was over two percent better than the cash index’s 1.71% decline.

On the other hand, Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN) was the biggest loser, dropping $8.34 or 4.02% to close at $199.34.
