Happy Monday. This is TheStreet’s Stock Market Today for Jan. 26, 2026. You can follow the latest updates on the market here in our daily live blog.

Update: 9:34 a.m. ET

Opening Bell

The U.S. markets are now opened. The Russell 2000 (+0.59%) is back out in front after a disappointing close to the week, joined by all three major large cap indexes — the S&P 500(+0.43%), Dow (+0.39%), and Nasdaq (+0.34%).

Out of the gate, the market is fairly even this morning. 48.1% (2,660) issues are advancing against 47.5% (2,627) in decline. The balance comes even after weekend trading in crypto, commodities, and eventually futures paled mixed reactions.

Tech stocks in the Nasdaq are finishing last as investors continue to digest Intel’s disappointing coming-quarter earnings, which had the stock down more than 17% on Friday. Today, it’s down another 3.6%, weighing on shares of similarly-situated firms.

Here’s the S&P 500 at last glance (15 min delayed):

At the same time as markets continue last week’s rebound, traders in the currency and commodity markets are appreciating a chaotic time. The Dollar continued recent declines this week amid unrest in the U.S., along with European pensions divesting Treasurys. Adding to concerns today, the U.S. is reportedly weighing some form of intervention with Japan’s Yen, which has played a significant role in the recent moves in the U.S. currency.

Speaking of Treasurys, the 10Y is down 2.8 bips to 4.211% today, even after Swedish pension fund Alecta were said to have sold “most” of its Treasury holdings after a report said that Northern European nations might divest America’s government debt amid a surge in geopolitical uncertainty.

Speaking of uncertainty, those commodity safe havens are still running, too. Analysts at Societe Generale and Morgan Stanley upgraded gold after the precious metal surpassed $5,000 on Friday. Continuous futures in gold (+2.27% to $5,092.80) and silver (+9.71% to $111.175) both rose to record highs today amid a tenuous backdrop for U.S. politics and global affairs.

Here are some of the other notes from the day:

Winter Storm Check-In

This morning, more than 814,000 U.S. households are still without power, with the leading sums coming out of states like Tennessee, Mississippi, and Louisiana. These states — plus others in the southeast, midwest, and northeast — were particularly hard hit by this weekend’s Winter Storm.

That storm has since moved northeast, leaving remaining pockets of the original warning in the northeast (in pink). In its stead, an Extreme Cold Warning (in dark blue) has been issued for large swaths of the U.S. population, which are contributing to higher natural gas prices.

It also contributed to a banner day for U.S. air travel — in a bad way. Over a dozen U.S. airports were shut, while over 40% of commercial flights were cancelled. The country has not seen a the worst day for U.S. since Mar. 2020, when airlines cleared their schedule amid the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Earnings Today: Nucor, Ryanair, Brown & Brown

This week, we continue to digest results from the fourth quarter, starting with Nucor Corp., Ryanair, and Brown & Brown, among others. Here are the 20 largest earnings reports today, sorted by market cap:

Economic Data + Events: Durable Goods, Chicago Fed Nat’l Activity

Today’s economic reports were largely out before the opening bell, including Durable Goods for November, which were shown to rise by 5.3%, impressing investors. However, the strength of that number is likely to be scrutinized because of the government’s recent shutdown. In addition, the Chicago Fed National Activity Index for October and November was also out, leaving just the Dallas Fed Manufacturing for January to come later this morning. Here is the slate:
