Daily Synthesis
Today's dominant story was a sharp rotation into semiconductors and growth tech, with the sector posting outsized gains that dragged the broader equity complex higher. Defensives and industrial names were left behind, suggesting the market is pricing in a growth-friendly regime rather than hedging for uncertainty. Tomorrow's setup hinges on whether crypto momentum sustains overnight and whether the tech bid broadens or begins to consolidate.
