Market News:

 

·        U.S. stock futures are lower: Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures are under pressure ahead of the Federal Reserve decision.

·        Fed meeting starts today: The FOMC begins its two-day meeting, with markets focused heavily on the interest-rate decision and Powell/Warsh guidance.

·        Rate-hike expectations rising: Recent market pricing and economist surveys have increased expectations for a Fed rate hike, adding pressure to equities.

·        Treasury yields above 5%: The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield has moved above 5%, the highest level in many years, increasing pressure on high-valuation growth stocks.

·        Oil remains a major concern: Brent crude is above $107/barrel, while WTI is around $102–103, as Middle East supply disruptions continue.

·        Energy/inflation risk: Higher oil prices are raising concerns that inflation could remain elevated and make it harder for the Fed to ease monetary policy.

·        AI/technology stocks under pressure: AI-related stocks are facing renewed selling as investors question valuations and the potential impact of an AI slowdown.

·        Big Tech still relatively strong: Apple and Microsoft remain near record levels, while Amazon and Alphabet continue to benefit from strong cloud/AI expectations.

·        Market resilience remains: Despite rising yields, oil prices and AI concerns, the S&P 500 remains relatively close to its recent record high, supported by strong earnings expectations.

·        Bond-market volatility is the key risk today: Rising yields, inflation concerns and the Fed decision are likely to drive U.S. market direction more than individual company news today.
