Streamflation, Data Gaps, and a Market Searching for Clear Signals
Markets continued to digest mixed labor data and the first signs of normalization after the government reopened. The tone remains cautious: policy uncertainty is easing, but the data vacuum created by the shutdown has left investors without clear signals on labor slack, inflation path, and the timing of rate cuts. Positioning is rotating toward earnings durability, liquidity strength, and away from sectors most exposed to valuation sensitivity.
U.S. equities opened softer, led by a pullback in tech and small-caps as investors reflect on stretched valuations and a shift toward defensive sectors. Europe followed the same tone, with the FTSE and DAX giving back recent gains, while Asia held firmer on steady earnings momentum. The divergence between falling equities and rising crude suggests energy positioning remains sensitive to supply signals. Meanwhile, gold’s slight decline reflects a market that is cautious but not yet seeking full safety.
