Digital Realty Trust led gains after beating Q2 revenue expectations, supported by rising new home sales.

Let's break down the sectors behind the performance.

## **Today's Top-Performing Sector**

Real estate was the top-performing sector, led by a significant rally in Digital Realty Trust (DLR). The real estate investment trust (REIT) was the top performer in the S&P 500 after posting second-quarter revenue growth of 29% to $1.92 billion, topping expectations of $1.66 billion. In addition, real estate stocks also benefited after the U.S. Census Bureau said new home sales rose to an annualized rate of 628,000 in June, marking the first uptick in three months.

Several real estate stocks led the sector's gains, including:

-   Digital Realty Trust (DLR)
-   Equinix (EQIX)
-   Iron Mountain (IRM)
-   CBRE (CBRE)
-   CoStar Group (CSGP)

## **Today's Worst-Performing Sector**

Meanwhile, the information technology sector faced the largest drawdown, with memory stocks coming under heavy pressure. Semiconductor stocks were also hit hard after an earnings report from Intel (INTC) failed to resonate with investors. On the other hand, software stocks rallied, led by ServiceNow (NOW), Adobe (ADBE), and Workday (WDAY).

Notable information technology stocks trading lower include:

-   SanDisk (SNDK)
-   Coherent (COHR)
-   Lumentum (LITE)
-   Western Digital (WDC)
-   Seagate Technology (STX)
