TechnologyOne (ASX:TNE), dragged down the technology sector the most, plummeting 17% after reporting revenue which fell short off expectations, and declining to provide FY26 guidance.

Wall St saw a pullback to open this week, with the losses once again lead by the recently struggling tech sector. The Dow Jones lost 1.2%, the S&P500 dropped 1% while the Nasdaq slipped 0.9%. Nvidia was a big factor weighing down the market, dropping 3% ahead of its Q3 results which are scheduled for Thursday morning Sydney time, as investors remain anxious about stretched evaluations. The results are expected to shape the trajectory of the entire sector for the next few weeks.In other overseas markets, Europe and Asia saw similar results to the US, with a sea of red across all the major indexes, including the European Stoxx600, Chinese CSI and Hong Kong's Hang Seng which all dropped over half a percent.Locally yesterday, the ASX technically did buck the global trend and close in the green, although it was only 1.9 points or 0.02% up.

In the wake of Chevron (CVX) and Exxon Mobil (XOM) earnings, Carley Garner provides her perspective on the energy market. She says technological improvements are helping oil exploration companies extract more product despite rig counts falling. She wouldn't be surprised to see gas fall between $40-$50 by the end of the year. Anecdotally, she points to lower foot traffic in her hometown of Las Vegas as a potential red flag for travel demand — and the fuel needed to travel. Later, Tom White provides example trade strategies for XOM and CVX.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
