Daily Synthesis
Today's session told a clear risk-off story: defensives attracted capital while cyclicals, industrials, and metals absorbed meaningful selling pressure, with crypto carving out an independent path that diverged from the equity tape. The metals liquidation and semiconductor weakness suggest macro concerns around growth and demand are driving the rotation rather than idiosyncratic events. Tomorrow's setup hinges on whether defensive leadership holds or fades into a broader relief bounce in beaten-down cyclicals.
