Stock Market Update Monday October 6, 2025 U.S. equities kicked off the week on firm footing, with the S&P 500 (SPX) climbing to another all-time high as buying broadened beyond mega-cap tech into the small-cap complex. Gains were led by semiconductor momentum, particularly a sharp rally in AMD, even as other chip leaders like NVIDIA (NVDA) and Broadcom (AVGO) lagged. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was the only major index finishing in negative territory.
Score Board:
S&P 500: +0.4%
Nasdaq 100 (QQQ): +0.8%
Russell 2000 (IWM): +0.4%
Away From Stocks: Treasury curve bear-steepened as yields rose across the curve. The 2-year yield added +2 bps, while the 30-year advanced +5 bps, reflecting shifting rate expectations amid strong equity sentiment. WTI crude oil bounced back toward $62 per barrel, supported by technical buying after last week’s pullback. Gold settled near $3,960 per ounce, holding firm as investors balanced risk-on sentiment with inflation hedging. Bitcoin hovered above $125,000, maintaining its recent consolidation range, while the VIX drifted toward 16, reflecting subdued demand for downside protection.
