The S&P 500 closed at a record high of 7,501.24, driven by strong corporate earnings and enthusiasm for AI technology. However, traders on Polymarket predict a 99% chance the index will open lower the next day, reflecting concerns about market concentration in tech stocks, stretched valuations, and geopolitical tensions involving Iran and the U.S.-China summit. Despite these risks, the index is on track for its seventh consecutive week of gains, with investors closely watching developments in trade, tariffs, and oil prices that could impact inflation and market sentiment.
