Pre-Open 10/18/25

COMMENT: Key drivers today:

Seasonal tailwind: November/December historically strong, especially after an October gain.

Markets are digesting recent pullbacks in tech (Nvidia, Palantir, Meta, etc.) amid valuation concerns and profit-taking after the 2025 AI rally.

No major high-impact US data releases today (light calendar: mostly minor items like import/export prices or housing indices if any delayed reports drop). Focus shifts to tomorrow’s Nvidia earnings, which could dictate direction for the entire market.

Fed speak is quiet; odds for a December rate cut have slipped but still >50% in many models. Inflation remains sticky but trending lower.

For the open, wait 6 minutes for the counter trend pop, then look to short with a downside objective of 46197.
