Below the Quote on Markets 23rd June 2026 by Mr. Vikram Kasat, Head Advisory, PL Capital (Prabhudas Lilladher)

Think Small The U.S. peace deal with Iran remains delicate, but investors seem to be too busy selling artificial intelligence stocks to notice. Tech was the main drag on markets, although small caps were a bright spot.

Dow Jones added 0.3%, helped by gains in non-tech sectors, from financials to energy and industrials. By contrast, S&P 500 lost 0.4% and Nasdaq fell 1.3%.

Iran war peace talks were fraught over the weekend—Donald Trump threatened to restart the conflict and there was ongoing violence in Lebanon. But investors are still hopeful that the two sides are making progress amid ongoing talks in Switzerland, which the U.S. characterized as positive.
