Why Is the S&P 500 Up or Down Today?

When the S&P 500 moves sharply, the reason is usually in the headlines above. Earnings, guidance, Fed policy, economic data and sector rotation are the usual drivers of a move on the day. The feed shows what broke and when, and the sentiment tag on each story shows whether the coverage skews positive or negative, so you can see at a glance why the S&P 500 is up or down today.

How S&P 500 News Moves the Market

News does not move the S&P 500 directly, it moves sentiment, and sentiment moves price. A run of negative headlines pulls the S&P 500 Fear and Greed Index toward fear, while positive coverage pushes it toward greed, often before prices fully react. Big stories usually show up first as a jump in S&P 500 volume. That is the chain to watch: headline, sentiment, volume, then the broad market.

Trade the S&P 500 News With Sentiment

Headlines tell you what happened; the Fear and Greed Index tells you how the crowd is reacting. Watch the S&P 500 level, the volume and the history move on a big story, and read the live S&P 500 Fear and Greed Index for the mood.
