🔥🚨GM 🫶US stock futures are basically frozen. Everyone’s holding their breath for the latest notes from the Federal Reserve, hoping for some real clues on where rates are headed. And Friday’s PCE inflation print is looming like a final exam nobody studied for 📉.
Yesterday wasn’t dramatic, just quietly tense. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite all inched higher. Nothing heroic. Just enough green to pretend things feel stable while AI anxiety still hums in the background.
Banks are loving the idea of “higher for longer.” JPMorgan Chase jumped 1.5 percent, Citigroup nearly 3 percent after Fed governor Michael Barr signaled policy could stay tight. Translation: fat margins, happy bankers 💸.
Meanwhile, the AI kings keep getting picked. Nvidia, Apple, and Broadcom moved up as money piles into the obvious winners. But overpriced software names are getting dumped without mercy. Salesforce, Intuit, and Oracle took hits.
So here we are. Markets stuck. Banks grinning. AI giants flexing. And everyone pretending they’re calm while waiting for the Fed to blink.
