📊 U.S. China Talks Spark A Major Tech Rally.

Good Morning Investors,

Cooling inflation and rising odds of deeper rate cuts kept traders positioned for a supportive macro backdrop heading into earnings season. Optimism around U.S. China trade negotiations fueled risk taking across major indices, though volatility in commodity linked equities persisted as rare earth stocks reacted sharply to new export control headlines.

A structural rotation toward infrastructure and reshoring continues to highlight under the radar beneficiaries in industrials and materials. Analysts note that these trends could provide longer-term upside for niche operators if policy support and capital spending momentum hold.

Yesterday’s trading reinforced the divide between high growth technology sectors and trade sensitive resource plays. Investors should watch the upcoming Fed decision, U.S. China talks, and corporate earnings cadence for the next meaningful catalysts in small and mid sized equities.
