Google parent Alphabet will be added to the Dow Jones Industrial Average beginning Monday, the index’s operator, S&P Global, said Tuesday. The company represents the fifth of the so-called Magnificent Seven growth stocks to enter the price-weighted index, which has historically been less vulnerable to tech swings than the Nasdaq Composite Index or the S&P 500. “Adding Alphabet will broaden and strengthen the DJIA’s exposure to these dynamic areas of the U.S. economy,” S&P said in a written statement.

The change will take effect before the market opens on June 29, said S&P Dow Jones Indices, which manages the index.

Wall Street Shaken as AI Spending Fears Trigger Broad Market Selloff

Saturna Capital Chief Investment Officer Scott Klimo joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the Saturna Global Equity ETF, the principles of Shariah-compliant investing, and how the rapid growth of artificial intelligence is reshaping valuations and opportunities across global markets. Klimo explained that the actively managed ETF applies Islamic investment guidelines that exclude sectors such as conventional banking, insurance, gambling, tobacco, alcohol, and weapons. In addition to those sector screens, the strategy also emphasizes companies with low debt levels, a factor Klimo said can signal strong cash generation, disciplined capital allocation, and durable business models. The conversation also focused on the impact of AI on technology investing. Klimo noted that major technology companies such as Alphabet, Amazon, and Microsoft are evolving from traditionally asset-light businesses into far more capital-intensive operators as they commit massive sums to AI infrastructure, data centers, and compute capacity. Beyond the large-cap AI leaders, Klimo highlighted a broader group of companies benefiting from the AI buildout, including ASML, Taiwan Semiconductor, Samsung Electronics, and Japan’s Fujikura, all of which play important roles in chip manufacturing, semiconductor equipment, and data-center connectivity. The discussion also touched on the pharmaceutical sector, where Klimo sees long-term value despite recent market weakness. He said healthcare companies can provide portfolio balance and defensive characteristics, even as investors continue to weigh regulatory uncertainty and shifting sentiment toward the sector. Looking at the broader market backdrop, Klimo pointed to continued geopolitical uncertainty, inflation trends, and energy prices as important factors to monitor. At the same time, he said he remains generally constructive on the market outlook, supported by resilient corporate earnings and the long-term productivity gains expected from AI adoption. #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews #SaturnaCapital #ShariahInvesting #ArtificialIntelligence #ETFInvesting #GlobalEquities #TechInvesting #AIInfrastructure #Semiconductors #HealthcareStocks #MarketOutlook

Stocks could be facing the end-of-quarter reckoning many investors feared when Elon Musk’s SpaceX unveiled plans for its multibillion-dollar initial public offering and Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh took over the central bank’s policy reigns earlier this month. The early signs of a late June “tech wreck” started to formulate Monday, with Google parent Alphabet shedding more than $225 billion in market value, its biggest slump in more than a year, and SpaceX extending its three-day decline to more than $600 billion. Shares in SpaceX were falling 4.3% in premarket trading Tuesday, putting them below $150 a share.

Micron Technology's stock has risen by almost 9x over the past twelve months, taking its market capitalization above $1.2 trillion - among the largest single-year gains in the company's four-decade trading history.

Hyperscalers, including Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOG), and Meta (META), are projected to spend roughly $700 billion on AI infrastructure this year,

It’s a rough day for stocks that have benefited from the AI rally this year. These stocks are among the deepest in the red this morning: Chip makers: Micron Technology is down 12%. Advanced Micro Devices, Marvell Technology and Qualcomm fell between 6% to 9% at the opening bell.
