Stock Market Update

[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (+0.29%) is in second place now on Friday afternoon, up about 19 points.

Briefly, S&P 500 constituents Eversource Energy (ES 67.35, +3.47, +5.43%), Uber (UBER 98.04, +3.34, +3.53%), and Fedex (FDX 232.41, +5.91, +2.61%) pepper the top of the standings. ES, along with other utes, rise today as a rotation into value comes despite a modest rise in yields, while FDX climbs after posting better-than-expected Q1 results and reaffirming its turnaround momentum with upbeat FY26 guidance, driven by cost efficiencies, pricing strength, and international demand.

Meanwhile, Dexcom (DXCM 68.56, -7.22, -9.53%) is today's top laggard, continuing yesterday's weakness after Hunterbrook was out with a cautious report on the shares.
