Market Summary

Market & SentimentBroad weakness, with the Russell 2000 down 1.64% versus roughly 0.35% for the large-cap indices. Breadth was poor: 380 decliners against 120 advancers, though 68.1% of stocks remain above their 50-day average. Nvidia's 4.34% drop after CEO Jensen Huang's resignation drove the tech tone, while renewed Middle East shipping risk pushed crude higher and lifted yields.

Sectors & StocksEnergy led at +1.51% as oil gained over $1 on Strait of Hormuz disruptions, with Valero up 3.09%. Communication services rose 0.80%. Materials lagged at -1.47% as gold fell 3% to a one-year low, dragging Newmont down 4.92%. Chip names split: AMD rose 5.86% and Broadcom 5.54% on custom-AI-chip appeal, while Nvidia fell 4.34% and Sandisk 4.11%. Moderna dropped 6.97% on 2027 cash-cost guidance.

Rates, FX & CryptoThe 2-year rose 13bp to 4.86% and the 10-year 12bp to 5.10%, leaving 2s10s at 24bp. The move fits oil-driven inflation concern as Middle East peace hopes faded. EUR/USD fell 0.41% and USD/SGD rose 0.26%. Crypto weakened: BTC fell 3.36% to about $71.4k and ETH 1.79%.

Earnings & AnnouncementsCisco beat and said AI infrastructure revenue will double this fiscal year. Cerebras jumped 13% on a revenue beat and a new Microsoft deal. Microsoft bought $1 billion of Anthropic shares in its IPO placement; Amazon's stake was valued at $271.8 billion. SpaceX plans over $74 billion in AI supercomputing spending across Texas and Arizona. FinDog moved Gartner from Neutral to Bullish.
