Four large caps closed at 52-week lows with the S&P 500 2.6% from its high

Six large companies closed at their lowest price of the trailing 252 sessions on September 10, 2026. McDonald’s closed at $253.05, 25.8% below its 52-week high and its lowest close since July 26, 2024. Lowe’s closed at $196.56, 31.6% below its high and its lowest since November 13, 2023. Stryker closed at $270.01, 30.6% below its high, its lowest since October 30, 2023 and its eighth straight down close. CRH closed at $87.66, 33.3% below its high; HDFC Bank at $21.84, 41.3% below its high and its lowest since June 2020; Brookfield at $38.05, 22.6% below its high. Royal Caribbean and ELS are each on twelve straight down closes without reaching a 52-week low.

The index they sit inside is in a different place: SPY closed at $757.89, 2.6% below its August 13 high of $777.88, and since July 1 it is up 1.6% while McDonald’s is down 6.1%, Lowe’s 11.4%, Stryker 13.8% and CRH 16.7%. Four of the six are restaurants, home improvement, medical devices and building materials, which is a consumer and construction list rather than a technology one, and the chart is a picture of dispersion under a strong index rather than a call on the index itself.
