Homebuilder stocks rally on the back of D.R. Horton's results
D.R. Horton's big earnings beat before the bell boosted homebuilder stocks, with D.R. Horton posting its best gain since November. Lennar gained over 2%, while smaller KB Home and Toll Brothers gained 1%. The iShares U.S. Home Construction ETF (ITB) is currently tracking for its best weekly gain since early February and closed today at a 52-week high. The ETF is trading around 10% away from its 2021 all-time high.
AT&T's sharp slide
AT&T's 10% drop today was its worst since 2000. It and rivals T-Mobile and Verizon are among the worst performers in the Communication Services sector so far this year, though T-Mobile is in positive territory and sits roughly 5% away from its recent high. As of today's close, AT&T is 18% away from its January high and Verizon is over 30% from its high. The Communication Services Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLC), by comparison, is around 13% off its recent high.
XPO shares power higher
XPO soared 18% today after appointing a former Old Dominion Freight Line executive as chief operating officer of its North American less-than-truckload operations. XPO had been trailing its larger rival, Old Dominion, so far this year. But with today's move, both are up over 20% year to date and around 9% away from their respective 52-week highs.
Coinbase ending the week with a whimper?
Coinbase heading for its worst week since early March, down 13% so far. The move comes as bitcoin has fallen around 7% week to date and amid regulatory scrutiny. Still, the stock is up over 70% in 2023. Smaller crypto players like Marathon Digital and Riot Platforms have fallen almost 20% this week.
