Market Comment
Risk appetite is firmer this morning. The strongest signal is coming from Asia, where Korea is sharply higher and Japan/China are also positive. US futures point to a modestly higher open, helped by AI/IPO enthusiasm and a lower VIX. Oil is weaker despite continued Middle East headlines, suggesting markets are treating the latest geopolitical news as contained for now. Treasuries are little changed, though the long end is slightly softer with the US 10-year at 4.558%.
