Market Brief – 10 Feb 2026

In today’s Market Brief – After Hours, US markets diverge as the Dow Jones Industrial Average extends its record run above 50,000 while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq retreat on technology and financial stock weakness. We break down the impact of weaker US retail sales, growing concerns around AI disruption in wealth management, and renewed valuation pressure across tech stocks. The episode covers mixed European markets, record highs in Japan’s Nikkei, sliding Treasury yields, and cautious sentiment ahead of key inflation data. We also analyse major FX technical moves in USD/JPY, EUR/USD, and GBP/USD, alongside volatility in Bitcoin, gold, and silver, plus key stock movers including Spotify, Datadog, Raymond James, Charles Schwab, Goodyear, and LPL Financial.
