Monthly Market Summary

The market finished February broadly rangebound, with the S&P 500 logging 8 up days, 8 down days and 3 flat days across 19 trading sessions. Overall price action was mixed rather than decisively directional, as strong gains in defensive and select tech niches contrasted with pressure on high-multiple growth names and parts of the hardware supply chain. The best-performing sectors were Telecom (+12.9%), Biotech (+9.7%) and Analog & Embedded Chips (+9.5%), while the weakest were the Mag 7/AI spenders (-7.3%), Airlines (-10.1%) and the Chip Supply Chain (-10.8%). Sector divergence drove much of the market’s dispersion, leaving the headline index largely unchanged on a net basis.
