The Nasdaq unofficially ended the session down 233.06 points, or 0.89 percent, at 25,857.68, extending the selling pressure that had been evident from the post-open decline of 157.13 points, or 0.60 percent, to 25,933.61. The unofficial close deepens losses relative to the prior session's unofficial close of 26,076.21, which had itself marked a decline of 148.93 points, or 0.57 percent, continuing the broader pattern of sustained downward momentum across recent sessions.

Session Performance Overview

The table below captures the Nasdaq's key performance metrics across recent sessions, from the prior session close through the latest unofficial close:

Multi-Session Trajectory

The index had registered a substantial single-session advance of 438.63 points at the prior close to 26,244.82, followed by only a marginal gain of 14.47 points at its unofficial close of 26,261.55. Renewed selling pressure then emerged early in the subsequent session, with the index declining sharply after the open by 196.32 points, or 0.75 percent, to 26,077.81, before provisionally settling at 26,079.14. The following session opened with a post-open gain of 51.30 points, or 0.20 percent, to 26,139.50, ultimately provisionally closing higher by 316.17 points, or 1.21 percent, at 26,404.37.

Recovery Attempt and Subsequent Reversal

Building on that recovery, the index opened higher by 40.44 points, or 0.15 percent, at 26,442.79, before provisionally closing with a gain of 230.11 points, or 0.87 percent, at 26,632.45. However, the subsequent session opened on a sharply negative note, with the index falling 376.95 points, or 1.42 percent, to 26,258.27 after market open, and ultimately unofficially closing down 402.48 points, or 1.51 percent, at 26,232.75, erasing a significant portion of the recent multi-session recovery.

Prior Session and Latest Unofficial Close

The prior session opened with a brief post-open uptick of 32.05 points, or 0.12 percent, to 26,257.20, suggesting an early attempt to recoup ground lost in the preceding session. However, the index was unable to sustain the recovery, ultimately unofficially closing down 148.93 points, or 0.57 percent, at 26,076.21. In the latest session, the index opened lower by 157.13 points, or 0.60 percent, to 25,933.61, and extended those losses further to unofficially close down 233.06 points, or 0.89 percent, at 25,857.68, reinforcing the continued selling pressure that has characterised recent sessions.

The NASDAQ Composite Index closed the latest session in negative territory, ending lower by 42.01 points or 0.16 percent at 25,796.93. This decline reversed the early optimism seen at the open, when the index had gained 42.82 points or 0.17 percent to reach 25,881.76, ultimately surrendering those gains as the session progressed.
