Tel Aviv stocks are trading broadly lower as selling pressure spreads across large-cap, mid-cap and small-cap segments. All eight major benchmarks are in negative territory, while the breadth of declines points to a market-wide weakening rather than isolated pressure in a limited group of shares. The sharpest moves are concentrated in the TA-90, TA-SME60 and banking segments, while the broader TA-125 and TA-200 indices are also under significant pressure.

TA-90 Leads the Decline as Mid-Caps Face Heavy Selling

The TA-90 is the weakest performer among the major benchmarks, falling 1.09% to 3,547.14. Only 12 securities in the index are advancing, compared with 78 declining, creating a strongly negative breadth profile. Turnover reaches approximately NIS 157.3 million, indicating that the decline is accompanied by active trading across the mid-cap segment.

The TA-SME60 is also facing substantial pressure, falling 0.98% to 1,253.63. Fourteen securities are advancing against 37 declining, while turnover reaches approximately NIS 27.5 million. The combination of a decline approaching 1% and strongly negative breadth indicates that weakness is extending into smaller companies.

The TA 90 and Banks index is down 0.84% at 3,818.20, with only 14 advancing securities versus 81 declining. Turnover stands at approximately NIS 365.8 million, showing that banking-related shares are participating materially in the broader selloff.

Broad Market Indices Show Deeply Negative Breadth

The TA-200 is down 0.78% at 3,800.64, with 44 advancing securities compared with 142 declining. Turnover reaches approximately NIS 931.8 million, the highest among the major benchmarks in the current market snapshot. The combination of high trading activity and sharply negative breadth points to significant selling pressure across the broader market.

The TA-125 is declining 0.34% to 4,049.73, but its internal breadth is substantially weaker than the index-level move suggests. Only 27 securities are advancing, while 98 are declining, with turnover of approximately NIS 908.5 million. The TA Sector-Balance index is also lower, falling 0.61% to 4,558.43, with 22 advancing securities and 77 declining and turnover of approximately NIS 880.3 million.

Large-Cap Shares Also Lose Ground

The TA-35 is down 0.13% at 4,218.34, making it the least affected of the eight major benchmarks by percentage terms. However, its breadth remains negative, with 15 advancing securities versus 20 declining and turnover of approximately NIS 751.2 million. The limited index decline compared with the broader market suggests that some large-cap shares are showing relative resilience, although participation remains weak.

The TA-20 is also declining, falling 0.40% to 4,054.61. Its breadth is comparatively balanced, with nine securities advancing against 11 declining, while turnover reaches approximately NIS 657.7 million. The index’s smaller decline does not fully offset the weakness evident across the broader market.

What Investors Should Watch Next

The key issue for the Tel Aviv market will be whether the current broad-based selling pressure stabilizes or continues to spread across market segments. Investors will be watching the TA-90 and TA-SME60 for signs of improvement in breadth, while the TA-125 and TA-200 will indicate whether weakness remains concentrated in mid- and small-cap shares or increasingly affects the broader market. Banking shares and turnover will also remain important indicators of risk appetite. A recovery in advancing securities across multiple benchmarks could signal stabilization, while continued negative breadth and elevated turnover on declining indices would point to persistent selling pressure.
