U.S. equities edged lower today with the S&P 500 and Dow Jones declining 0.58% and 1.18% respectively, while the Nasdaq proved more resilient at -0.12%. Despite the modest equity pullback, market sentiment remains constructively tilted toward greed at 66 on the Fear & Greed Index, with the VIX holding steady at 16.41. Energy led the move higher as crude oil climbed 1.10% to $95.22, while Bitcoin also gained ground at +0.62%, suggesting selective risk appetite in pockets of the market despite equity pressure.
Watch today: Monitor the 10-year Treasury yield holding at 4.81% through the close; if it moves decisively above 4.85%, it could signal renewed concerns about inflation stickiness (CPI at 3.54%) and weigh further on equities into tomorrow's trading.
