ChainCatcher reported that the S&P 500 closed at a record high this week, but the rally was driven largely by companies that have benefited from the artificial intelligence boom. Strong performances from Meta, Microsoft, and Nvidia helped lift the index, while shares in consumer, travel, transportation, real estate, and financial sectors moved lower. The report said this divergence has masked signs of fragility in the U.S. economy and financial markets. It also noted that when the S&P 500 reached its latest all-time high, only 30% of its constituent stocks were trading above their 50-day moving average, pointing to relatively narrow market breadth behind the headline gain.
