In this week’s Seaspray Private financial data insight we analyse the divergent performance of the S&P 500 in 2026, with a particular focus on the technology sector and its outsized influence on US equity returns. We explores how AI-related disruption has weighed heavily on software and SaaS companies, while semiconductor equipment firms have delivered strong gains. By comparing market-cap-weighted and equal-weighted S&P 500 indices, our analysis highlights underlying strength in broader US corporate performance despite headline index weakness.
