IEX premarket price against the prior close.

Indexes rebound premarket after a selloff on oil and yields.

Tone

The S&P 500 fell 0.6% yesterday and the Nasdaq 100 fell 1.06%. The Dow lost 0.6% and the Russell 2000 1.02%. Premarket, the S&P 500 is up 0.67%, the Nasdaq 100 0.77% and the Russell 2000 0.73%. Dow premarket prices are not in yet. The structure score of 51 is balanced: the medium trend is rising, which is the bigger picture, but the index sits near the bottom of its recent range and below its short-term trend.

Yesterday's drop came as oil spiked 6% and yields hit a 19-year high. Fitch warned an AI bust could crash US stocks 35% and trigger a recession. Nvidia dominates the company news and matters because it is a proxy for AI sentiment. Its stock edged higher on a report of Microsoft data center expansion.
