Market Summary

Market & SentimentA risk-off session: the Russell 2000 fell 1.84%, the Nasdaq 100 0.84% and the S&P 500 0.72%. Breadth was weak, with 326 decliners against 165 advancers and only 28.6% of stocks above their 50-day average. Just 10 new highs versus 39 new lows. The 10-year Treasury yield at 5.11%, its highest since 2007, and a nearly 2% oil rise on Iran tensions drove the selling.

Sectors & StocksEnergy was the lone gainer, up 1.02%, as oil rose almost 2% on Iran's vow not to surrender. Communication services fell 2.53% and utilities 1.87%. Cybersecurity broke away: Palo Alto Networks rose 5% on its Unit 42 AI defense launch, CrowdStrike 4.97% to a 52-week high, and Palantir 3.68% after an FAA AI flight-management vote. Travel names were hit hard as Meta's Muse agent threatened to bypass aggregators: Airbnb fell 7.56% and Booking Holdings 5.07%. McDonald's dropped 4.81% on its $8.5 billion franchisee support plan.

Rates, FX & CryptoThe 10-year yield jumped 15bp to 5.11% and the 2-year rose 14bp to 4.85%, leaving the 2s10s spread at 26bp. The dollar strengthened to a near two-month high on Fed hike expectations and rising oil; USD/CNY rose 0.11% to 6.7074, a weaker yuan, while EUR/USD fell 0.45%. Crypto sold off with the broader risk move: Bitcoin dropped 2.02% to $84,443 and Ether 2.43% to $2,685.

Earnings & AnnouncementsCintas raised its full-year outlook after a fiscal first-quarter beat, with revenue up 10.9% to $3.01 billion. Microsoft pledged $10 billion in Gulf cloud and AI investment by 2030. Eli Lilly slipped as a $6.5 billion plant backs oral GLP-1 scale. Oracle dropped on a 37bp premium for AI-related debt.
