SPY is trading at $762.88, down 0.8% on August 21, 2026, as rising Treasury yields pressured the broader S&P 500.

  • SPY closed at $762.60 August 20; the 30-year yield neared 5.24%, muting the buyback announcement amid oil-price and inflation concerns.
  • Walmart’s weak comparable-sales growth and disappointing outlook intensified consumer-spending concerns; consumer staples and discretionary stocks led declines.
  • Dow fell 1.32% and Nasdaq 1.00%; only energy and real estate rose. Pre-market trading signals limited recovery, not a fresh 3% move.
