Stock Market Update Thursday November 13, 2025 Markets delivered a broadly risk-off session following the government’s reopening, as expectations for a December Fed rate cut deteriorated and dragged equities lower. Implied probabilities for a December cut slipped below the 50% threshold, pressuring valuations across most major asset classes.
The early-week sector rotation—which had previously helped keep the major indices afloat even as the AI trade continued to unwind—finally ran out of steam. Nvidia declined another 3.5%, extending its post-Oct. 29 pullback to roughly 10%, though the stock did manage to close well off intraday lows.
Defensive pockets of the market, particularly Consumer Staples and Utilities, were the only areas to show relative resilience. In contrast, the MegaCap complex (Mag 7+) led a broad selloff that weighed heavily on small caps, which underperformed meaningfully.
Score Board:
S&P 500 (SPX): −1.7%
Nasdaq 100 (QQQ): −2.1%
Russell 2000 (IWM): −2.8%
Away From Stocks: Treasuries remained comparatively stable, with the 2-year and 30-year yields inching up to 3.58% and 4.70%, respectively—an increase of two to three basis points on the day. WTI crude continued to soften, drifting toward $59 per barrel, while gold eased to roughly $4,178 per ounce. Bitcoin broke below the $99,000 level for the first time since early May, and the VIX jumped nearly three points, trading back above 20, signaling a renewed bid for downside protection.
