The U.S. stock market faced a bearish day on November 13, 2025, with an astonishing 75.6% of equities declining. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (-2.29%) had its worst performance since October 10, while the S&P 500 (-1.66%) and the mighty Dow Jones Industrial Average (-1.65%) also succumbed to the market-wide sell-off, ending a two-day rally.
The Russell 2000 index, which tracks small-cap companies, fell by nearly 3% at one point, further highlighting the broad-based nature of the market's downturn. Investors were left disappointed as the market's performance was in stark contrast to the recent positive momentum.
The day's trading session was marked by a flurry of earnings reports, with companies like Applied Materials, StubHub Holdings, and Starz Entertainment releasing their latest financial results. While some companies managed to beat expectations, the overall market sentiment remained bearish, reflecting the ongoing challenges faced by the U.S. economy.
