US crude oil futures closed up 2.42% at $96.68 per barrel; Brent crude oil futures rose 2.86% to $101.97 per barrel. The US-Iran negotiations have reached a complete stalemate, oil transport through the Strait of Hormuz remains restricted, preventing large quantities of oil from entering the international market. Iranian crude oil exports have essentially halted, and rising expectations of Middle East production cuts have pushed up oil prices due to geopolitical risk premiums. 2.

As major tech companies hit new lows, the NASDAQ Composite seeks to settle below the 10,700 mark.

Big Tech Stocks Continue to Be Under Stress

As traders responded to the ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI data, which fell short of analyst forecasts, the S&P 500 recovered from session lows.


Energy stocks took the lead in the recovery from session lows today due to robust support. In today's trading session, ConocoPhillips, APA Corporation, and Marathon Oil all saw gains of 6–7%.


ConocoPhillips had significant price appreciation after exceeding analyst expectations, boosting the dividend, and expanding its share repurchase program by $20 billion.


Despite missing analyst profit expectations, Etsy increased by 14%. The firm gave a positive prognosis for the last quarter of this year, which caused the stock to rise.


Booking increased by 5% with the release of the $6.05 billion in sales and the higher-than-expected adjusted profits of $53.03 per share.


Fidelity National Information Services, which was down 25% following the publication of its quarterly report, was under a lot of pressure due to weak guidance.


Leading tech companies including Apple, Alphabet, and Amazon had declines of 2% to 3%. Meta Platforms, meanwhile, tested fresh lows at $88.50.


If the mega cap companies continue to experience pressure, the whole market will not be able to develop a sustained upward trend. Traders are nonetheless concerned that rising interest rates may harm the bottom lines of powerful corporations.


While the IT industry leaders seemed unstoppable during the coronavirus crisis, their stocks were under a lot of pressure from rising interest rates, a stronger currency, and a slowing global economy. Traders should continue to watch the large tech stocks' movements for hints regarding the S&P 500's future course.
