The Hub's call

Made at 9:00 AM ET, after the 8:30 data

BULLISH· high confidence✓ Right — SPY closed +0.55%

Bullish session with tech and energy leadership expected

Trend long bias, premarket risk on, futures slightly up; sectors neutral but other inputs bullish

Futures point to slight gains in tech stocks. Oil down may pressure energy, but lower yields support growth. Expect SPY to test 777.75 resistance.

Macro read: Oil down pressures energy; gold up suggests risk-off; yields down favors long-duration stocks. Dollar down, VIX down reduces volatility.
