Implication

Mid-session flow is concentrated in semiconductors and broad tech — chase the strength there cautiously but watch for mean reversion given the magnitude of moves. Metals and energy weakness is real; avoid fading those dumps intraday. Crypto is riding equity risk-on coattails, but ETF outflows suggest conviction is uneven. Stay long growth, light on commodities into the close. api.agentcanary.ai/api/docs npm i agentcanary-mcp Not financial advice
