BLUE COLLAR AND BOUJIE — AFTER THE BELL
Tuesday, August 25, 2026
On this day in 1987, the Dow closed at an all-time high. Two months later came Black Monday. Tuesday's market gave us a much smaller version of the same lesson — twice in one week.
THE SESSION
A genuinely broad rebound — the Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq all higher, breadth healthy across both exchanges, yields easing for a second straight day. Almost the exact mirror image of Monday.
THE BIG STORY
The same chip stocks that got hit hard Monday came roaring back Tuesday. Nvidia ended a seven-session losing streak heading into Wednesday's earnings — the actual test everything this week has been positioning around.
THE MOVERS
Dick's Sporting Goods had its worst day in years — down roughly 31% after its Foot Locker bet went sideways, even as its core business kept growing. AMD and Moderna both had real days for real reasons. And Canada didn't just object to new U.S. tariffs — it built a list.
THE QUESTION WE ACTUALLY ASK
Monday's selloff made sense. Tuesday's rebound also made sense. Which means neither one was really a verdict — just two rational reactions to incomplete information, with the real answer landing after tomorrow's close.
