SPY closed at $758.54, clinging to its 90-day high, while the 10-year yield sits at 4.47% – unchanged from yesterday. With VIX at 16.19, still near its lows, the market is pricing in continued calm as earnings season officially kicks off. Breadth remains positive, indicating tech’s momentum is still broad-based, not just confined to mega-caps.
Technology (XLK +1.2% 5d) continues to lead, underpinned by AI-related names and strong momentum in semi-conductors. The XLK/SPY ratio is pushing to new highs, signaling outperformance. Health Care (XLV +0.8% 5d) is also showing strength, benefiting from defensive positioning and consistent demand.
We're watching CRDO (earnings tonight — sector tone setter), AMD (testing $527.20 resistance — breakout potential), and CSCO (making new highs — momentum play). Also, ALAB is showing strength with no overhead resistance.
