Equities advanced across the board with the S&P 500 gaining 0.73% and the Nasdaq 100 outperforming at +1.00%, driven by tech strength and sustained investor appetite reflected in a Fear & Greed reading of 70. Treasury yields held firm at 5.28% while inflation remains elevated at 3.71% year-over-year, keeping the backdrop for rate policy uncertain. Bitcoin rallied nearly 1% to $86,129, signaling continued risk-asset demand, though oil's modest 0.27% gain suggests measured energy sentiment.
Watch today: Monitor the 10-year yield for any break above 5.30%—sustained pressure here could challenge the equities rally and signal shifting expectations around Fed policy and terminal rates. Combined with CPI still sticky at 3.71%, any hawkish commentary today could quickly reverse today's gains.
