US Open Setup

The overnight setup favors defensive positioning into the US open. Defense and biotech are absorbing flows while semiconductors and copper miners bear the brunt of the risk-off rotation. Watch whether volatility sustains its spike or fades into the cash session open, as that will determine whether the selloff broadens into financials or stabilizes around existing sector leaders.
