US Stock Market Today Live, August 10: Dow Jones Falls Below 54,000 Mark, Nasdaq Drops Under 26,600, S&P 500 Flat
Live
News
The US stock market traded on a mixed note with a cautious bias on Monday, as the Dow Jones dropped under the 54,000 mark, while the Nasdaq Composite was trading in red to struggle around the 26,600 level. And the S&P 500 index traded volatile to flat.
The US stock futures traded on a mixed note on Monday, August 10, 2026. The Dow Jones futures dropped significantly as crude oil prices gained momentum, while the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 futures gained marginally. For the trading week from August 10th to August 14th, the outlook for the US stock market is moderately bullish despite US-Iran geopolitical risks still lingering and August being an entirely bearish month.
Last week, the Dow Jones and Nasdaq Composite skyrocketed at least 1,300 points in terms of weekly performance, while the S&P 500 index soared over 250 points. This is despite the US recording weaker-than-expected nonfarm payroll data of 23,000 in July and an unemployment rate of 4.1%.

This week, both macro and internal factors are in favor of bulls for Wall Street. However, overbuying could lead to consolidation in the S&P 500 in the trading week ahead. The US CPI and PPI will be major reports to watch out for next week. While corporate earnings will continue to give stock-specific actions.
Gold and silver are down, while crude oil prices gained by 1% to near $85 per barrel. The US dollar index floated around 99.6 after a sharp decline in the previous session.

US Stock Market Live Updates Today: US Crude Reserves Hit Lowest Level In 40 Years
U.S. crude oil reserves in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) have dropped below 300 million barrels, reaching their lowest level in more than four decades. The SPR declined by 6.1 million barrels to 298.7 million barrels last week, as the Iran war continues to put pressure on global oil supplies. The decline follows President Donald Trump’s decision in March to release 172 million barrels from the SPR to ease supply disruptions caused by attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. release is part of a broader International Energy Agency (IEA) coordinated release of 400 million barrels aimed at stabilizing the global oil market.

US Stock Market Today Live: Why Wall Street Is Under Pressure Today?
A small majority of the market positioned in accordance with a rate hold by the Federal Reserve next month. Nonfarm payrolls unexpectedly declined in July to challenge the view of a robust labor market, which was commonly cited by hawkish FOMC members following multiple dissents in the central bank’s last meeting. Meanwhile, fuel costs remained below recent peaks despite risks of prolonged supply setbacks of oil from the Persian Gulf. Tech giants were mostly higher after a group of brokers signaled strong demand for cloud services, with Meta, Microsoft, and SpaceX adding around 1% each. On the other hand, Intel fell over 3% as it will be offering $15 billion in stock. Also, Apple fell by 2.5% after being downgraded to underperform by Jefferies, as per Trading Economics.

US Stock Market Live Today: Weekly Outlook For Wall Street
Looking to next week, we’ll get the monthly inflation reports (CPI/PPI) and there will be several important earnings reports from the AI complex (ex. AMAT, CSCO, CRWV, LITE, NBIS). From a technical perspective, one could say we are overbought on a very-near term basis given the strong week, but the momentum is to the upside. The “pain trade” is also higher, given that some performance chasing may still be lurking underneath the surface. Yes, the Iran war is a wild card, and yes August is not a strong month for stocks from a seasonal factor, but I believe the outlook favors the bulls due to a) bullish technicals/momentum b) potential performance chasing and c) potential short covering. Therefore, I am providing an overall “Moderately Bullish” forecast for stocks next week. What could challenge my forecast? Since we are overbought on a very near-term basis, its possible we consolidate next week, or it’s even possible that the SPX does a technical “check back “, which means the index would go back to test the prior resistance level around 7,600: Nathan Peterson, Director of Derivatives Research and Strategy for the Schwab Center for Financial Research.

US Stock Market Today Live: How Corporate Earnings Of US Companies Are Faring?
Tracking the Q2 earnings scorecard, the results continue to be very strong, even when removing one-time earnings contributions due to investment gains from Amazon, Alphabet and Microsoft. So far, 442 of the S&P 500 companies have reported results and 69% have beat estimates on the top line while 87% have beat on the bottom line. Perhaps more impressively EPS growth is currently tracking at 51.44% and revenue growth is at 14.70%. When excluding one-time investment gains, the EPS growth rate for the S&P 500 is tracking 26-29% (according to estimates from Goldman Sachs and data compiled by LSEG): Charles Schwab.

US Stock Market Today Live: Nasdaq Vs S&P 500
Although the Nasdaq is not at new highs like the other majors, tech stocks continued to rebound, initiated by both last week’s collapse of hedge fund Situational Awareness (capitulation event) coupled with evidence of AI monetization & forecasted growth acceleration from both Microsoft and Amazon. Palantir’s solid “beat and raise” quarter on Monday also helped boost sentiment around software and the entire AI cohort. Lastly, after consolidating within a trading range of roughly 7,250-7,600 for three months, the S&P 500 index broke out to fresh all-time highs on Wednesday. In my view, in addition to the incremental bullish technical development, when the SPX breaks out to fresh all-time highs, additional buying pressure can result from both a) performance chasing by fund managers and b) short covering: Charles Schwab.

US Stock Market Live: US Dollar Gains
The dollar index hovered around 99.6 on Monday after sliding sharply in the previous session, pressured by weaker-than-expected US employment data that lowered expectations for a near-term Federal Reserve interest rate hike. Nonfarm payrolls unexpectedly declined by 23,000 in July, while steep downward revisions to the prior two months further signaled a deterioration in labor market conditions. Investors are now turning their attention to key inflation data due this week for additional clues on the monetary policy outlook. Meanwhile, markets continued to track developments in the Middle East as Iran denied holding direct talks with the US, despite Washington’s claims that a deal was imminent. Tehran also maintained demands for an end to the US naval blockade, the lifting of sanctions and compensation for war-related damage before agreeing to any deal, as per Trading Economics.
