Equities showed mixed momentum today with the Nasdaq 100 outperforming on a 1.04% gain while the Dow lagged with a 0.14% decline, suggesting a rotation toward growth and technology. The S&P 500 edged up 0.58% amid persistent inflation at 3.95% YoY and a 10-year yield holding steady at 4.48%, keeping rate expectations anchored. Bitcoin slipped 1.61% despite broader market stability, while the Fear & Greed Index remains in fear territory at 34, indicating underlying caution despite equity resilience.
Watch today: Monitor the 10-year Treasury yield at 4.48% for any moves through key resistance; if yields push higher on continued inflation concerns, it could pressure the tech rally and weigh on equity multiples. Watch for any Fed commentary that hints at rate trajectory shifts given CPI persistence above the 3% target.
