- S&P 500 notched a record close on August 13, 2026, according to Barron's market coverage of the session.
- Larry Kudlow stated that 156.4 million American adults "love" the new S&P 500 record high, per Fox Business.
Why it matters: A confirmed record close on August 13, 2026 extends the benchmark's all-time-high trajectory, and Kudlow's framing — tying 156.4 million adults to the milestone — positions the rally as broadly popular rather than concentrated among a narrow group of investors.
