Sunflower Bank Weekly Market Commentary: November 24, 2025
Each week, our Wealth Management team analyzes the U.S. stock market and bond market activity and news of the previous week, summarizing their findings into a weekly market update report. The key points of this week's commentary, "November Shaping Up to Be Worst Month Since March for Stocks," include:
- Risk assets came under pressure last week. The S&P 500 fell -2.0% and the Nasdaq 100 dropped -3.0%, falling for the third consecutive week. November is shaping up to be the worst month for both large cap indexes since March. As of last Friday, the S&P 500 is down -3.0% this month and the Nasdaq is down -6.0%.
- Technology stocks are performing particularly poorly. XLK, a technology sector ETF is down nearly -10% in the month of November.
- This performance comes as markets have repriced the odds of a December Fed cut. A December cut was once seen as a foregone conclusion, but is now less certain.
