Briefings
The S&P 500 reached a new intraday record of 7,836.41 points on October 6, 2026, driven by a return to AI enthusiasm and a recovery in Treasury yields. The Nasdaq also hit all-time highs with Nvidia approaching the $6 billion valuation milestone. While the S&P 500's 0.80% gain was supported by strong employment data and a 78% probability of Fed rate maintenance, the article notes upcoming earnings reports for major banks starting next week, which could shift market sentiment.
