Economic Observer Network According to market information on February 23, 2026, Smith & Wesson (SWBI.OQ) stock price fell 4.00% to $11.53, mainly due to the overall market environment and the performance of its sector.

Recent Stock Trends

On that day, the three major U.S. stock indices showed mixed performance, but technology stocks generally came under pressure. The Nasdaq Composite declined by 2.46%, and the S&P 500 dropped by 0.77%. Market volatility was mainly influenced by former U.S. President Trump’s announcement to raise global import tariffs to 15%, which heightened concerns about inflation and global economic growth, leading to a decrease in investors’ risk appetite. As a stock sensitive to market sentiment, Smith & Wesson was dragged down by the overall risk-averse atmosphere.

Sector Changes

The aerospace and military industry sector to which Smith & Wesson belongs declined by 1.07% on February 23. The sector’s performance was related to the overall decline in tech stocks and uncertainties caused by tariff policies. Although aerospace stocks rose due to specific news, the military industry sector did not receive support.
