## Resource

Markets remain trapped in a tight consolidation pattern, but the technical picture has not materially changed. The S&P 500 once again found support at the closely aligned 20-day and 50-day moving averages, preserving the current buy signal while investors wait for a decisive breakout. Semiconductor stocks continue to lead the Nasdaq as money rotates back into the momentum trade, even as geopolitical tensions with Iran create headline risk. We'll discuss why the market appears comfortable with the current environment, what could trigger a 3% to 5% pullback, and why oil prices remain a critical variable. We'll also examine the surge in the U.S. dollar following renewed Middle East tensions, what a potential reversal could mean for commodities and precious metals, and why Treasury yields may be approaching an important turning point after becoming technically overbought.
