Magnificent Seven Back, Lead Market Higher

The article says the Magnificent Seven helped keep the market moving sideways this year, with no stock trading above the S&P 500 at one point during 2026. The key message is one of extreme market concentration and weak relative breadth rather than a discrete earnings or policy event. The tone is informational and suggests positioning/market-structure concerns more than a directional catalyst.
