November 2025 delivered mixed returns to equity investors with nearly two weeks of sideways action preceding a brisk period of risk-off activity, led by a decline in large-cap market leaders. As a result, broad market averages were down nearly 4% over several days, before a rebound late in the month left most indices near all-time highs.
After a volatile start to the month, October turned out generally positive for equities investors. The S&P 500® Index finished the month up 2.27% at 6,840.20 and the Russell 2000® Index gained 1.76% to finish above 2,479. Both benchmarks were just shy of all-time closing highs in the final week of the month.
June 2025 marked a third strong month for broad-based equity indices with gains near 5% for the S&P 500® Index (SPX®) and the Russell 2000® Index (RUT) benchmarks. Implied and realized volatility trended lower despite continued geopolitical situations, including U.S. action against Iranian nuclear sites late in the month.
