Equities retreated across the board today, with the Nasdaq 100 leading declines at −1.08% as tech took the heaviest hit, while the S&P 500 and Dow fell around −0.7%. The VIX held steady at 15.89 despite the selloff, suggesting measured risk appetite, and the Fear & Greed Index remains firmly in Greed territory at 73—indicating markets haven't panicked despite the pullback. Crude oil slumped 2.52% to $91.75 amid demand concerns, while the 10-year yield held firm at 5.24% as inflation data continues to influence rate expectations.
Watch today: Monitor the 10-year Treasury yield for any movement above 5.30%—a sustained break could signal renewed rate-hike expectations and pressure equities further, particularly high-growth tech names already down sharply today.
