Equities posted modest gains today with the Nasdaq 100 leading at +1.19%, while the S&P 500 and Dow trailed with smaller advances. The VIX sits at 15.48 and the Fear & Greed Index remains in fear territory at 30, suggesting underlying caution despite the rally. Treasury yields hold firm at 4.66% with inflation at 3.73% and unemployment stable at 4.10%, creating a backdrop of steady but cautious market sentiment.
Watch today: Monitor the 10-year Treasury yield at 4.66%—any material movement higher could pressure equities, particularly the interest-rate-sensitive Nasdaq that led today's advance. Watch for any economic data releases that could signal inflation persistence or labor market shifts.
