Update: Nasdaq Rises to Notch Fourth Weekly Gain; Crude Prices Stabilize

05:08 PM EDT, 10/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates with market moves at the end of the day, and other changes, if any.) The Nasdaq Composite rose Friday, securing its fourth straight weekly gain, while crude prices were little changed. The index climbed 0.6% to 27,366.17. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 0.8% to 51,654.95, while the S&P 500 added 0.6% to 7,811.54. Except for communications services and energy, all sectors ended in the green, led by real estate. This week, the Nasdaq gained 0.6%, extended its winning streak to a fourth consecutive week. The S&P 500 and the Dow logged weekly increases of 1.2% and 0.9%, respectively. "Equity markets bounced back this week with little in the way of major market-moving data, and as Treasury yields paused their relentless run higher," BMO Senior Economist Robert Kavcic wrote in a note. US consumer sentiment fell to a five-month low in October as the one- and five-year inflation expectations reached their highest levels since May, preliminary results of a University of Michigan survey showed Friday. "While year-ahead expectations for personal finances and business conditions crept up slightly, buying conditions for durables plummeted amid high prices and borrowing costs," Surveys of Consumers Director Joanne Hsu said. "Frustration over cost-of-living continues to mount, as consumers across the political spectrum believe that the trajectory of the economy has weakened since the beginning of the year." Markets are pricing in a nearly 83% probability that the Federal Reserve will keep its benchmark rate steady later this month, according to the CME FedWatch tool. West Texas Intermediate crude slipped 0.1% to $91.42 a barrel in Friday late-afternoon trade, while Brent was little changed at $104.24. Both benchmarks were up for the week, with Brent on track for its third consecutive weekly increase.

04:22 PM EDT, 10/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- US equity indexes ended higher Friday after a broad-based rally and strong gains in mega-cap technology names as crude oil prices steadied. * The University of Michigan's preliminary consumer sentiment index declined to 46.3 in October from 48.1 in September, versus the 47.6 expected in a Bloomberg-compiled survey. * November West Texas Intermediate crude oil rose $0.15 to settle at $91.63 per barrel, while December Brent crude, the global benchmark, was last seen up $0.15 at $104.43. * Shares of Moderna (MRNA) and other vaccine developers rose after The New York Times reported that the US National Institutes of Health is part of a public-private partnership to accelerate the development of cancer vaccines. Moderna shares rose roughly 12.5%, the best performer on the Nasdaq. * SpaceX (SPCX) shares rose about 1.3% after the company agreed to acquire a nationwide low-band spectrum portfolio from investment firm Grain Management to establish Starlink Mobile as a major US mobile carrier.

Wireless Carriers' Day of Woe After SpaceX Spectrum Deal -- WSJ

By Patience Haggin Shares in AT&T, Verizon Communications and T-Mobile US fell sharply Friday in the wake of SpaceX's $8 billion spectrum deal, the Elon Musk-led company's biggest move yet into the wireless market. By early afternoon, AT&T and Verizon were on track for their biggest one-day declines in more than 24 years. For T-Mobile, it would be the worst percentage drop in more than 13 years. SpaceX said Thursday it had agreed to buy cellular spectrum licenses from investment firm Grain Management-specifically, spectrum that can cover places satellite links can't reach, such as inside buildings. SpaceX has said it wants to move its Starlink satellite service beyond broadband, and this acquisition could make it a more serious threat to the leading consumer wireless carriers. Starlink already provides internet connectivity via thousands of satellites in low-Earth orbit, as well as basic wireless connections in remote areas through a T-Mobile partnership.

Update: US Equity Indexes Rise Amid Strong Gains in Mega-Cap Technology

02:10 PM EDT, 10/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates with index/price moves, macroeconomic data, and company/geopolitical news from the first paragraph.) US equity indexes rose amid a broad-based rally that lifted all sectors and strong gains in mega-cap technology names, as investors seemingly whistled past a bear steepening in the yield curve. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.6% to 27,346.2, the S&P 500 advanced 0.6% to 7,808.5, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average marched 0.8% higher to 51,632.1. Healthcare, real estate and consumer discretionary led the gainers. Among stocks with market capitalization exceeding $200 billion, as many as six of the top 10 were technology names, according to data compiled by Finviz. Oracle (ORCL) led the gainers in this mega-cap category, up 4.8%. In economic news, the University of Michigan's preliminary consumer sentiment index declined to 46.3 in October from 48.1 in September, versus the 47.6 expected in a Bloomberg-compiled survey. Respondents pegged one-year inflation expectations at 4.7%, up from 4.6% in the previous month, while the five-year figure increased to 3.5% from 3.4%. "Overall, sentiment for lower-income consumers and those with smaller stock portfolios dropped steeply this month, groups that have fewer resources to weather increases in prices," Michigan said. The CME FedWatch tool showed that the probability of the Federal Reserve leaving its target rate unchanged in October was 81% on Friday afternoon. However, the market sees a 71% likelihood that the Fed will raise its target rate by 25 basis points in December and assigns a 45% probability of another move higher of the same magnitude in March to ease inflation back to the Fed's 2% target. Term premium, or the extra payout for the risk of investing in 10-year Treasuries instead of just rolling over short-dated securities for the same amount of time, hit 1.2 percentage points this week, up from 0.68 percentage points a year ago, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The move higher reflects concerns about th

Update: Equities Rise Intraday as Traders Parse Consumer Sentiment Survey

01:37 PM EDT, 10/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates with latest market prices and developments.) US benchmark equity indexes were higher intraday as investors evaluated a survey on consumer sentiment. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.8% at 51,628.8 after midday Friday, while the Nasdaq Composite and the S&P 500 rose 0.6% each to 27,352.4 and 7,809.5, respectively. Barring communication services, all sectors were in the green, led by real estate. US consumer sentiment fell in October as the one- and five-year inflation expectations reached their highest levels since May, preliminary results of a University of Michigan survey showed Friday. "While year-ahead expectations for personal finances and business conditions crept up slightly, buying conditions for durables plummeted amid high prices and borrowing costs," Surveys of Consumers Director Joanne Hsu said. "Frustration over cost-of-living continues to mount, as consumers across the political spectrum believe that the trajectory of the economy has weakened since the beginning of the year." Markets are currently pricing in a nearly 81% probability that the Federal Reserve will keep its benchmark rate steady later this month, with the remaining odds in favor of a second consecutive 25-basis-point hike, as the central bank looks to tame inflation, according to the CME FedWatch tool. West Texas Intermediate crude was down 0.4% at $91.17 a barrel intraday, while Brent lost 0.5% to $103.81. The 10-year US Treasury yield was up 1.5 basis points at 5.25%, while the two-year rate increased 3.9 basis points to 4.8%. In company news, SpaceX (SPCX) shares were up 0.5%. The rocket and satellite company said late Thursday it agreed to acquire a nationwide low-band spectrum portfolio from investment firm Grain Management as it seeks to establish Starlink Mobile as a major US mobile carrier. T-Mobile US (TMUS) shares sank 13% intraday Friday, the worst performer on the S&P 500, followed by AT&T (T) and Verizon Communications (VZ), which fell 10% and 9.8%, respectively.

SpaceX's Low-Band Spectrum Deal Not Enough to Challenge Big Three Carriers, MoffettNathanson Says

01:30 PM EDT, 10/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- SpaceX (SPCX) management is correct that low-band spectrum is necessary for coverage and in-building penetration, but the company remains far from having the assets needed to compete with the "Big Three" carriers, MoffettNathanson said Friday in a note. SpaceX would need to construct a terrestrial network to offer a competitive service, which would cost tens of billions of dollars and take many years to build, according to the note. MoffettNathanson said Starlink's only viable path to becoming a competitor to the big three carriers would be to secure a mobile virtual network operator agreement with one of them. Acquiring spectrum was Starlink's best option for gaining the negotiating leverage needed to secure such an agreement, the note added. None of the big three carriers intends to enable Starlink as a competitor by granting it an MVNO agreement, according to the brokerage. T-Mobile (TMUS), whose T-Satellite service is powered by Starlink, recently removed Starlink's name from its website and marketing materials, MoffettNathanson said. Telecom stocks fell sharply following the spectrum deal. However, the brokerage does not believe Starlink's direct-to-device service poses a material risk to Verizon (VZ), AT&T (T), or T-Mobile.

Top Midday Decliners

12:17 PM EDT, 10/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Verizon Communications (VZ), T-Mobile US (TMUS), and AT&T (T) shares fell after SpaceX's (SPCX) acquisition of low-band spectrum heightened concerns over growing competition from satellite-based mobile services. Verizon shares slumped nearly 10% as intraday trading volume soared to over 54 million from a daily average of about 21.8 million. T-Mobile shares sank past 12% as intraday trading volume soared to over 9 million from a daily average of roughly 4.6 million. AT&T shares dropped 10% as intraday trading volume jumped to over 87.5 million from a daily average of about 48.3 million. Alignment Healthcare (ALHC) expects the federal government to assign its California HMO plan, which provides health insurance to Medicare seniors, a lower star rating for 2027, it said late Thursday. Shares fell 14% as intraday trading volume surged to over 16.3 million from a daily average of about 7.5 million. Price: 41.28, Change: -4.37, Percent Change: -9.57
