The U.S. stock market experienced a decline last week, with major indices showing negative weekly percentage changes. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) fell by 2.47%, the Nasdaq-100 (NDX) dropped 2.39%, and the S&P 500 (SPX) declined 2.61%. The Nifty 50 (NSEI) in India also saw a slight decrease of 0.70%.

Several economic factors contributed to this downturn. U.S. GDP growth for Q1 2025 was reported at -0.3%, reflecting a slowdown in economic activity. Consumer confidence dropped to 86.0, indicating weaker sentiment among households. Durable goods orders showed mixed results, with a 7.5% increase overall, but a -0.4% decline excluding transportation.

The Federal Reserve's recent statements suggested a cautious approach to monetary policy, highlighting concerns about inflation and economic stability. Jobless claims remained steady at 227K, but continuing claims showed a slight decrease.

Despite these challenges, corporate profits grew by 5.9%, providing some optimism for long-term market stability. Investors are closely watching upcoming economic reports and Federal Reserve decisions to gauge future market direction.
