The tech sector remains mixed, with some companies showing positive momentum while others face bearish sentiment. The recent PPI data showing a 5.4% year-over-year increase has heightened inflation concerns, pressuring the Federal Reserve's rate decision. The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield remains at 4.9%, reflecting ongoing inflation concerns and rate hike expectations. The energy sector has shown resilience amid the escalating Middle East tensions, with oil prices surging past $100 per barrel due to the intensifying hostilities. This has led to increased volatility in energy markets, with Brent crude prices hovering around $105 per barrel. The situation has also affected the aviation sector, with airlines facing pressure due to the increased risk of disruptions.
