The S&P 500 Slumps in June Week 1

0
S&P 500 Slumps

After a great last week in May that saw S&P 500 close the week at $422, +1.02% compared to the previous week, the gains were eroded, with it trading at $416.22 at midweek. The decline was a mirror image of previous weeks that saw the S&P 500 flirt with the weekly support. However, true to recent behavior, the support integrity remains uncompromised, with prices bouncing back and operating in the $418.65-418.9 range on Friday. 

The midweek plunge and failure to reach last week’s high saw the year-to-date returns drop from +12.47%  to +12.3%. Among the individual select sectors, there was a continuation of “musical chairs”. 

The top three gainers were: energy select sector with +6.15%, real estate gaining +1.48%, and consumer staples recording +1.05% gain. 

The energy select sector surge is attributable to global crude oil prices taking off on OPEC, doubling down on its decision to ease global supply restrictions. 

On the other extreme, the top 3 losers were the information technology sector with -0.72%, the communication services with -0.78%, and the healthcare sector with -1.47%

Below is a breakdown of the S&P 500 underlying sectors and their performance over the week-May 31st to June 4th using their corresponding ETFs.
