📊 Expensify +30% & GPUS Chaos

Good Morning Investors,

Progress toward a potential U.S.–Iran agreement helped pressure oil prices, reducing support for energy producers and exploration companies. Lower energy prices can ease inflation concerns, but they also create a less favorable environment for commodity linked stocks that had benefited from elevated oil prices earlier in the year.

The key takeaway is that leadership remains concentrated. Semiconductors, AI infrastructure, and technology related names continue to attract the strongest flows, while other sectors lag behind. As long as earnings expectations remain strong, tech linked names may continue to outperform, but investors should closely monitor bond yields, Fed communication, and commodity markets for signs that the current risk on environment is becoming less supportive.
