Benzinga examined the prospects for many investors’ favorite stocks over the last week — here’s a look at some of our top stories.

Both the S&P 500 and Dow broke their six-week winning streaks, with the S&P 500 down nearly 1% and the Dow falling 2.7% for the week. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq marked its seventh consecutive weekly gain, rising 0.2% and reaching an all-time high, driven by strong performances from megacap tech stocks.
