What Markets Are Watching

The themes that matter right now

A short, curated list of the variables actually moving prices, with no commentary noise.

  • Rates

    Fed rate expectations

    The path of policy rates remains the single largest driver of equity valuations and fixed-income performance. Track CME FedWatch for the implied probability of upcoming cuts.

  • Yields

    10-year Treasury yield

    The 10Y is the discount rate used across most equity models. Sustained moves above 4.5% historically pressure long-duration multiples; moves below 4% have eased them.

  • Inflation

    CPI & PCE prints

    Headline and core inflation releases drive rate expectations directly. The Fed targets 2% PCE; monthly readings shape the timing of the next policy move.

  • Earnings

    S&P 500 earnings season

    Aggregate revenue, margin, and forward guidance trends determine whether current index multiples are supported by fundamentals.

  • AI Capex

    Hyperscaler infrastructure spend

    Capex from the largest cloud and AI buyers continues to anchor demand for semiconductors, networking equipment, and power infrastructure.
