1) Overnight Futures Snapshot
Futures are subdued into the open, with the tape still trading the oil headline more than the index chart.
- SPY: $677.18 (-0.16%)
- QQQ: $607.77 (+0.00%)
- DIA: $477.70 (-0.04%)
- IWM: $253.36 (-0.10%)
Volatility remains elevated and the session was defined by risk-on/risk-off whipsaws tied to the Iran conflict, shipping disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, and the market’s attempt to price an energy-driven inflation impulse before the next rate narrative hardens.
