2026 02/16 - 02/20. Wall Street spins into a relief rally as the Supreme Court ruling sparks a market surge amid rising yields and crude prices

This week, Wall Street rallied following the Supreme Court's decision to curtail presidential tariff powers, boosting the S&P 500 and Nasdaq amid eased trade tensions. However, rising Treasury yields suggest economic resilience, while crude oil spikes due to U.S.-Iran tensions signal potential market volatility. Investors should brace for critical corporate earnings and inflation data ahead, as these factors are poised to significantly shape market sentiment and strategic decisions in the coming days.|-----|* S&P.* 02/16 M.
