U.S. Markets Closing Updates | Dow tumbles nearly 600 points, S&P 500 goes negative for 2026 in tech sector rout
🇺🇸 On Thursday, February 5, 2026, U.S. stock markets closed sharply lower, with the S&P 500 entering negative territory for 2026 after a second consecutive day of losses driven by a broad sell-off in technology & software stocks.
🇺🇸 The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 592.58 points (1.20%) to close at 48,908.72.
🇺🇸 The S&P 500 declined 1.23%, ending at 6,798.40, its first negative close of the year.
🇺🇸 The Nasdaq Composite fell 1.59% to 22,540.59, weighed down by tech & chip stocks.

🇺🇸 Alphabet was the latest of the “Magnificent Seven” Companies to report earnings results. The company projected a sharp increase in artificial intelligence spending that spooked some investors, calling for 2026 capital expenditures of up to $185 billion. Shares lost 0.5%.
🇺🇸 However, shares of Broadcom climbed almost 1% following news of Alphabet’s spending plans, offering some hope for the artificial intelligence trade as the market deciphers its winners & losers.
🇺🇸 Alongside Alphabet, Qualcomm came under pressure, sliding more than 8% after posting a weaker-than-expected forecast because of a global memory shortage.
🇺🇸 Elsewhere, the sell-off in the cryptocurrency market continued to gain steam, as bitcoin fell below $64,000 after earlier sinking under the $70,000 threshold, which is considered a key support level. In the precious metals space, pressure on silver resumed. The metal’s prices snapped a two-day rebound & dropped as much as 16%. It had plummeted nearly 30% last Friday.

Bad news for the labor market
🇺🇸 Adding to the downbeat sentiment, concerns surrounding labor market weakness grew after outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas reported that U.S. employers announced 108,435 layoffs in January, marking the highest January total since the Global financial crisis.
🇺🇸 On top of that, initial jobless claims for the week ended Jan. 31 rose more than expected & job openings in December fell to their lowest level since September 2020.
🇺🇸 This comes ahead of next week’s release of the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ January jobs report, which was pushed back as a result of the partial Government shutdown that ended Tuesday.
