Good MorningTuesday's session carried a defensive tone as investors weighed geopolitical overhang against pockets of genuine corporate momentum. The central tension was familiar: risk-off positioning driven by energy volatility and sticky inflation expectations versus AI infrastructure spending that continues to attract long-term capital. Equities drifted lower early, pared losses late on diplomacy hopes, but breadth stayed narrow and cautious.
The macro backdrop tightened further after a new Fed consumer survey showed near-term inflation expectations rising again, with energy costs the primary driver. Oil above $110 reinforces the higher-for-longer rate narrative and keeps pressure on growth and rate-sensitive names, limiting the kind of broad risk-on rotation bulls need.
Broadcom surged after extending its TPU supply partnership with Alphabet and Anthropic through 2031, a signal that hyperscale AI capex commitments remain durable even amid broader market uncertainty. Apple slid on reports of engineering setbacks threatening its foldable iPhone timeline. Intel firmed on a reported semiconductor deal with xAI. Health insurers rallied sharply after CMS finalized a better-than-expected Medicare Advantage rate increase for 2027, lifting UnitedHealth, Humana, and CVS in the session's clearest relief trade. Traders are watching Treasury auction results, upcoming bank earnings, and any shifts in ceasefire negotiations. Featured: 100% overnight gains? (Ad)
