Michael Reinking breaks down a volatile week marked by tariff headlines, rising global yields, and a sharp tech‑led selloff that quickly reversed. Early weakness gave way to a rebound as shifting rhetoric on Greenland and tariffs helped small and mid caps hit new highs. Macro uncertainty persisted with delayed Supreme Court action, ongoing Fed Chair speculation, and surging natural gas prices. Earnings season remained mixed as margin concerns surfaced while crypto news took center stage with BitGo’s NYSE debut. With earnings, the FOMC decision, and geopolitical risks ahead, markets enter next week with a packed agenda.

Eric Criscuolo, NYSE Market Strategist, breaks down a week defined by Supreme Court uncertainty, shifting sector leadership, and the kickoff of earnings season. Cyclicals led the tape as tech lagged early, helping small and mid caps outperform while financials slid on policy pressure and mixed bank results.

With a heavier earnings slate, key inflation data, and global events ahead, markets head into next week with a full macro calendar.
