Cautious Outlook as AI Rotation Continues
- QQQ trend shows bearish price action andema alignment breaking down
- SPY shows slight recovery but remains range-bound near key averages
- VIX edge higher signals elevated uncertainty ahead of FOMC meeting
QQQ shows continued weakness with a sharp drop on July 2 closing near the low of the session, followed by fragile gains that failed to break back above key moving averages. The index closed below its EMA5, EMA9, and EMA20 on July 7, with price trading near the lower end of its recent range. Volume on the decline suggests selling pressure, while technical indicators like RSI are not yet indicating oversold conditions. SPY held better, closing above its 20-day EMA on July 7 and showing relative resilience as value-oriented sectors held ground. The VIX rose slightly on July 7, reflecting persistent cautious sentiment after a jobs report that fueled growth concerns and triggered rotation out of AI and semiconductor names.
