πŸ“Š Market Recap: August 11–15, 2025

Wall Street wrapped up another winning week, fueled by renewed rate cut optimism, strong small-cap performance, and investors rotating into overlooked sectors.

  • S&P 500: +1.2% (6,447.76) β€” fresh record highs midweek before cooling Friday

  • Dow Jones: +1.7% (41,740.18) β€” strength in industrials and healthcare

  • Nasdaq Composite: +1.2% (17,458.12) β€” tech cooled but still positive

  • Russell 2000: +4.9% (2,298.44) β€” small caps led the charge

  • Bitcoin (BTC): Steady near $118,500, consolidating below $120K

This marked the fourth positive week in five for the S&P 500 and added momentum heading into the key Jackson Hole event next week.
