Markets traded sideways today with the S&P 500 essentially flat and the Dow lagging slightly, suggesting cautious sentiment despite a Greed-skewing Fear & Greed Index. Oil gained momentum with WTI rising 0.85%, while tech remained under modest pressure with the Nasdaq 100 down 0.31%. The 10-year Treasury yield sits at 5.22% with CPI holding at 3.71% and unemployment stable at 4.2%, leaving Fed policy assumptions intact.
Watch today: Monitor crude oil's sustained strength above $95.50 and track whether this inflationary pressure tests the Fed's yield ceiling at 5.22%, particularly ahead of any economic data that could challenge the current rate-hold consensus.
