Comments
At the same time, sectors sensitive to rising costs came under pressure. Airlines were hit hardest, which explains the weakness in U.S. Global Jets ETF, while profit-taking also dragged on tech ETFs such as Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund and VanEck Semiconductor ETF.
For me, this highlights how fast sector rotation can happen when macro risks rise. Energy and gold gaining while tech and bonds soften shows the market briefly prioritizing safety and inflation hedges — something traders should keep an eye on this week. 🐯
