What to watch
With the policy rate at 3.63% and headline CPI at 3.5%, the current risk-on environment is supported by a modestly easing curve and a contained VIX at 16.5, though highly defensive breadth—125 Holds against just 27 Buys—suggests broad market participation is unusually thin beneath the surface. Institutional capital is concentrating in secular growth and discretionary leaders, with INTU, GOOGL, ALL, and BKNG emerging as top buy signals, while the underlying 125-to-30 Hold-to-Sell ratio warrants close monitoring for any early cracks in macro dispersion.
