The S&P 500 closed at a fresh record of 7,798.99 on Thursday, August 13, 2026 (22 Mordad 1405), up 0.65 percent, crossing the 7,800 mark for the first time in its history. The Nasdaq Composite rose 0.81 percent to 26,803.03, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.13 percent, or 69.72 points, to close at 53,839.99.
According to CNBC, the rally followed a softer than expected US producer price index (PPI) reading for July, which, alongside Wednesday's consumer price index (CPI) report, reduced the odds of another Federal Reserve rate hike at the September meeting. A simultaneous decline in global oil prices also helped lift trader sentiment.

According to Donya-e-Eqtesad, citing Fararu, despite recent rumors, a new payment of Edalat (Justice) Shares dividends will not be made in Shahrivar 1405 (roughly late August to mid September 2026).

The main index (TEDPIX) lost the 6.6 million point channel after trying to enter it, then returned to that level minutes later.

Farabourse Iran Reports 16 Companies Improved Their Audit Opinion Within a Year
According to Boursenews, Jalal Baharestan, Farabourse Iran's deputy for issuer oversight, said that of 83 Farabourse listed companies identified in Shahrivar 1404 (August/September 2025) as having qualified audit opinions, 16 companies, or 20 percent, managed to have their auditor's opinion upgraded to "unqualified" by Shahrivar 1405 (August/September 2026) after a year of follow up. He said the total number of audit qualification clauses across these companies fell 30 percent over the same year. Baharestan said that after identifying the 83 companies, Farabourse engaged with issuers on the issues raised in their audit reports and asked their boards to submit corrective plans and clear timelines to resolve the ambiguities. He said the improvement was not limited to companies exiting qualified status, as other issuers have also improved reporting quality by clarifying their accounts and resolving financial disputes.
