NEW YORK—Big Tech stocks once again carried Wall Street to a record Friday, even though the majority of stocks fell amid worries about the downside of a hot economy.

Big gains for Meta Platforms and Amazon helped drive the S&P 500 index up by 1.1% to its latest all-time high. It’s in a torrid run where it’s climbed in 13 of the last 14 weeks. The Big Tech stocks, which are two of Wall Street’s most influential, also vaulted the Nasdaq composite up by 1.7%.
