AI Morning Briefing

Equities finished slightly lower across major indices, with the Nasdaq lagging at -0.54% while the Dow held relatively steady, suggesting a mild rotation away from technology. Oil surged 2.66% to $90.84, reflecting supply concerns or demand optimism, while the broader market remains cautious with the Fear & Greed Index at 31. Treasury yields remain elevated at 4.66% amid persistent inflation readings of 3.73%, keeping pressure on growth-sensitive stocks and cryptocurrencies alike.

Watch today: Monitor crude oil's momentum above $90 and any follow-through at the open — if energy continues climbing while equities weaken, it could signal stagflation fears resurfacing and pressure the Fed's policy outlook.
