Eric Criscuolo, Market Strategist at the NYSE, reviews a market shaped by continued AI-driven volatility, rising Treasury yields, and renewed uncertainty following the Federal Reserve meeting. While semiconductor and AI hardware stocks remained under pressure, the equal-weight S&P 500 reached a record high, highlighting resilience across the broader market. Investor concerns over AI spending, funding models, and a high-profile hedge fund liquidation added to tech sector turbulence. At the same time, cooling inflation data and strong consumer spending pointed to a healthy economic backdrop. Looking ahead, markets will focus on major tech earnings, labor market data, and whether AI leadership can regain momentum.
