Geopolitical Jitters Trigger Global Market Retreat
Market Overview Global equity markets closed broadly lower as escalating geopolitical tensions between the United States and Iran overshadowed investor sentiment. Concerns intensified after U.S. President Donald Trump indicated that negotiations with Iran were progressing too slowly and hinted at additional actions. The heightened uncertainty sparked a risk-off environment, leading to broad-based selling across major markets, particularly in technology stocks.

Global Market Overview Global markets delivered a mixed performance as investors balanced easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East against fading momentum in technology stocks. While Asian markets staged a strong rebound following the previous session's sell-off, US and European equities struggled to sustain gains.

$Apple(AAPL)$ Apple (AAPL) ended the week at $307.34 , down -1.25% on Friday, closing near its session low and below the prior day's resistance level of $311.10.

$Alphabet(GOOG)$ GOOG (Alphabet) faces a near-term technical pullback (-2.51% on the session) driven by profit-taking after a recent all-time high, but long-term fundamentals remain strong, supported by an accelerating earnings trajectory and bullish analyst consensus.

This positive news has largely offset the prior session's broader sector weakness.
