The jeans creator on Wednesday posted fiscal second quarter revenue that fell just short of Wall Street's expectations at a time when shoppers are stocking their wardrobes with denim dresses, skirts and ultra-low-rise baggy pants. It's not clear how sales at Docker's were affected by the timing of Levi's wholesale orders. The changes are necessary because nearly half of Levi's sales these days are coming from its own website and stores. During the quarter, wholesale revenue grew 7%, but excluding the shift in timing of wholesale orders, sales in the channel decreased 4%. Singh noted that wholesale revenue improved on a sequential basis, but the company has a "conservative" view of the channel's growth moving forward.

Shares of Trump Media shot up as much as 11% as markets opened Tuesday, clawing back more of the Truth Social maker's losses that followed former President Donald Trump's criminal conviction in New York. The upward swing movement shows the makings of a third straight day of gains for Trump Media, which trades as DJT on the Nasdaq. The stock soared 21% on Monday, boosting by hundreds of millions of dollars the company's market capitalization — and the on-paper net worth of Trump, who owns nearly a 65% stake in Trump Media. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee cannot sell any of his shares until late September, when a post-merger lock-up period expires. The stock price declined 46% between that May 30 verdict and the end of last week.

Since briefly becoming the world's most valuable company last week, Nvidia has dropped for three consecutive trading days and is now down 13% from its peak. Nvidia's decline brought with it a slide in chipmakers and other tech companies that have been tied to the artificial intelligence boom. Super Micro Computer , which sells servers packed with Nvidia's AI chips, slid 8.7 percent, and Dell , which competes in that market, fell 5.2%. Last week, it topped Apple and Microsoft as the most valuable U.S. company with a market capitalization over $3 trillion before giving up some of those gains. Later this year, Nvidia will start shipping its next-generation AI chips, called Blackwell, that some analysts say could kick off another cycle with significant growth for the chipmaker and its partners.

That's pushed tech heavyweights and Club names such as Apple , Nvidia , Microsoft and Broadcom higher and the S & P 500 to record highs along with them. The market-cap weighted S & P 500, which we report on all time, has gained more than 4% since May 30. But, a version of the index that assigns each company the same influence, known as the S & P 500 Equal-Weight , has advanced only around 1%. The divergence helps explain why our trusted momentum indicator, the S & P Short Range Oscillator , has been closer to oversold territory than overbought during the run higher. Recent years haven't been so kind to them, with the stock underperforming the S & P 500 considerably over the past three years.
