Good morning. Monday’s report graded CONFIRMED: all three names closed above their pivots on every 15-minute bar. This morning the cushion is thin. SPY and QQQ sit just above their pivots, NVDA sits right on its own, and marks are not closes.

Session Bias: No Trade pre-open, then Need Confirmation. Conditional bull lean, LOW conviction.

What’s driving it: Monday’s rebound was led by tech, but the overnight tape is mixed. S&P futures are +0.13% while Nasdaq futures are –0.14%, and Asia did not follow the U.S. higher (Nikkei –1.30%, KOSPI –3.73%). The 10Y is easing to 5.119%, though Monday’s rise was real-yield led, which is the tougher mix for tech. ADP (8:15 AM ET) and housing (8:30 AM ET) are the only U.S. data before the open, and AI-financing credit worries are still live. Let the first 15-minute closes set direction.
