Markets Wobble as Rate-Hike Odds Rise Amid U.S.-Iran Tensions

Stocks finished the week lower as SPY and QQQ slid on rising odds of 2026 rate hikes amid escalating U.S.-Iran tensions; energy led gains while utilities lagged as higher oil prices fuel inflation concerns, potentially pushing the Fed to tighten. Headlines included Trump weighing actions on Iran’s Kharg Island, the Pentagon dispatching ships, and a 33% drop in SMCI after a DOJ charge—reflecting a market bracing for geopolitical and inflation-driven rate risk.

Investor Bets on QQQ's Edge Over VOO for 2026

Investor Bets on QQQ's Edge Over VOO for 2026

An investor argues that the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) may be the more attractive pick for 2026 than the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) due to a cheaper growth-adjusted valuation (about 1.3x vs ~1.47x for VOO) and strong AI ecosystem exposure, despite VOO’s lower expense ratio and broader diversification. QQQ has outperformed VOO over the past three years (roughly 93% vs 70%) and carries a higher beta (around 1.25), but has faced near-term weakness. A notable December 2025 inflow followed by February 2026 outflows is viewed by the investor as a contrarian buying opportunity, and Vega North rates QQQ a Buy.

Nvidia Slump Dampens SPY and QQQ even as Results Impress, AI Spending in Focus

The S&P 500 ETF SPY and the Nasdaq 100 ETF QQQ closed lower on Thursday, pressured by Nvidia despite a revenue and earnings beat and upbeat guidance. Nvidia remains the largest holding in both ETFs, and its roughly 5.5% drop underscores investor concerns about AI capital expenditure sustainability and concentration risk. The broader market showed SPX down about 0.54% and NDX down about 1.16%. Separately, U.S.–Iran indirect talks in Geneva were described as positive with progress but still unresolved on key issues, while data on jobless claims and tariff policy remained in focus for traders.
