The price was very, very wrong when four contestants on “The Price Is Right” tried to guess the retail value of Apple’s Vision Pro headset. And it wasn’t that everyone overbid — the guesses were all more than $2,000 below the actual cost.

In a case of opposite day, the lesser-runs of the S&P 500 powered the market higher while the heavyweights broadly retreated on Thursday. The benchmark US stock index closed up 0.4%, the Nasdaq 100 eked out a 0.1% gain, and the Russell 2000 led the way with a 0.5% advance.

Contrary to Wednesday, the S&P 500’s advance-decline line was tilted decidedly to the upside, with gainers outnumbering fallers by 247. Every S&P 500 sector ETF traded higher, save for consumer discretionary, with defensive sectors like utilities and consumer staples topping the leaderboard.
