What to watch

With the Fed funds rate at 3.63% and CPI moderating to 3.5%, the supportive risk-on regime is intact as evidenced by a subdued VIX at 17.1 and an upward-sloping curve, though the heavily defensive tracked breadth of 127 Hold versus 24 Buy names suggests institutional positioning remains cautiously selective rather than aggressively pro-cyclical. Against this backdrop, watch the top buy signals in INTU, CF, ALL, and BKNG for confirmation that capital is rotating into quality growth and resilient consumer exposure, but treat the outsized hold weighting as a warning that breadth must broaden beyond isolated leaders to sustain the equity rally.
