Monthly Market Summary
February 2026 closed as a choppy month with 7 bullish days, 3 bearish days and 9 mixed sessions, reflecting uneven investor conviction. Overall market action was sideways-to-slightly-positive as gains were concentrated rather than broad-based. Infrastructure (+21.5%), Data Center REITs (+18.6%) and Logistics (+12.9%) led the advance, while Enterprise Software (-8.8%), Cybersecurity (-19.9%) and IT Services (-22.6%) drove notable weakness in the technology-heavy segments. The month ended with a clear sector divergence, favoring real assets and logistics over cyclical and software-related names.
