📌 Key Intraday Drivers (What Actually Moved Things)
🔴 High impact
AI/tech rebound (
$MU continuation +
$NVDA strength) dragged indexes higher.
BoJ hike led to global yields increasing + yen volatility, keeping macro desks active into the close.
🟡 Medium impact
Consumer shock (
$NKE +
$LW) capped the everything rally and kept staples/utilities heavy.
Triple witching inflated volume and likely exaggerated some moves.
🟢 Lower impact
Housing + sentiment data: incremental, didn’t change the day’s direction (tech did).
