These Were the S&P 500's Best-Performing Stocks at the Halfway Mark of 2026. Can They Still Go Higher This Year?
These stocks were up by more than 270% at the mid-point of the year.
Overview
The stock market has continued to perform well in 2026, despite seemingly high valuations for many stocks entering this year. As of the end of June, the S&P 500, which features the top 500 stocks on U.S. markets, was up 9% since the beginning of the year. And since 2023, it has now risen by 95%.
This year, tech stocks have once again dominated, with a heavy focus on memory and storage providers. The three best-performing stocks on the S&P 500 as of the halfway mark of 2026 were Sandisk (NASDAQ: SNDK), Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU), and Intel (NASDAQ: INTC). Here's a look at how much they were up as of the halfway mark, and if they can still rise much higher in the second half.
