$POET — Stocks closed mixed as a tech-led retreat weighed on growth names while utilities and materials outperformed. The S&P 500 gave back ground modestly, the Nasdaq saw a sharper pullback, and Russell 2000 small caps lagged on a day of sector rotation and headlines ranging from Pfizer earnings to POET options flows.

Renewables, grid upgrades and AI demand buoyed utilities, materials and technology, while regulatory uncertainty, geopolitical strain and inflationary pressures kept healthcare, finance and energy under pressure. Key moves — Ford’s grid play, a $29B grid upgrade plan, and rising air freight costs — underline a market balancing structural investment with short‑term risk.
