Summary

Markets stay resilient as strong earnings and AI driven growth support sentiment, even as geopolitical tensions and energy shocks add pressure. Plus, investors rotate beyond big tech into energy, defense and commodities while watching inflation trends. Later, Fed policy uncertainty, labor market shifts and the impact of AI on growth and jobs keep risks elevated for markets.
