The Market feels like it is holding its breath right now...

Futures were all over the place this morning, but to be honest it just feels like everyone is waiting. Right now, the entire market is basically watching the Middle East, as well as every post on reddit right now. If peace talks keep moving forward, risk appetite probably comes back. If not… different story. What’s interesting is underneath all that noise, there are still some strong signals: AI keeps winning, Broadcom just expanded its chip deal with Meta, GitLab is teaming up with Alphabet on cloud stuff, & Big banks like Bank of America and Morgan Stanley are quietly posting strong trading numbers. Meanwhile, the 10-year yield is creeping back up (\~4.27%), which usually isn’t great for stocks. So now we’ve got this weird mix of: geopolitics driving short-term moves, AI + earnings still strong underneath, and rates slowly rising in the background. Feels like the market wants to go higher… it’s just waiting for a reason. Curious what everyone on here thinks, are we about to break out, or is this just a pause before another drop??
