What to watch
With the Fed funds rate at 3.63% and CPI moderating to 3.5%, the supportive risk-on regime is underpinned by a constructive upward-sloping yield curve and subdued volatility at a 15.8 VIX. However, tracked breadth of 26 Buy / 126 Hold / 30 Sell signals a highly selective market where investors are concentrating flows into secular growth and quality defensive names, as evidenced by top rotational buys in NEM, INTU, GOOGL, and ALL. Watch for sustained breadth expansion beyond the current narrow leadership as the key confirmation that institutional risk appetite is broadening rather than merely rotating.
