Oil at war-time highs while stocks near ATH -- is the market just ignoring macro risk or is this actually healthy rotation?

Watching oil and the 10yr climb together while the broader market just kind of shrugs has me thinking. Historically that combination has been a headwind for equities -- higher energy costs compress margins, higher yields compress multiples. But the market seems to be treating this as fine. My read is either the market is pricing in a soft landing where oil demand rising is actually a SIGN of healthy global growth, or we're in late cycle where everyone knows a correction is coming but nobody wants to be first out. Curious what others are seeing -- are energy names starting to look interesting as a hedge here, or is oil at these levels already priced in for most energy stocks?
