Oil is repricing the ceasefire faster than the market is repricing the macro.
Iran ceasefire extended 60 days. Hormuz reopening in 30. Oil fell from $101 to $90 in a week. One risk premium out.
But the macro tail is still there: 30Y above 5%, December hike odds near 50/50, cuts still not back in the tape.
Breadth improved, but narrowly. Cyclicals still haven’t confirmed. Semis at highs, housing weak, same index, different economy.
The bigger story is capital allocation. S&P 500 buybacks were $900B last year. Hyperscalers are spending $200B on AI infra in 2026. That is cash not going to repurchases. At 21x forward P/E, who is the marginal buyer?
SpaceX raise, OpenAI filing prep, low vol, crowded longs. This week matters.
$MRVL Wed.
$CRM Wed. PCE Thu.
