Markets showed modest divergence today as the broad S&P 500 slipped 0.07% while the Dow managed a small 0.32% gain, reflecting a rotation toward defensive sectors. The Nasdaq 100 declined 0.45%, signaling weakness in large-cap tech despite stable Bitcoin near $76,800. Energy led with crude oil gaining 0.92% to $103.82, while the Fear & Greed Index flashed extreme fear at 25, suggesting investor caution amid persistent inflation at 3.95% and a 4.62% 10-year yield.
Watch today: Monitor the 10-year Treasury yield's response to any economic data or Fed commentary—a break above 4.65% could amplify equity pressure, while a hold below 4.60% may ease the extreme fear sentiment and support a tech rebound.
