U.S. equity markets slumped this week - while interest rates tumbled to multi-year lows- as investors weighed unresolved AI questions and a flight to safety sparked by escalating Middle East tensions. The defensive "risk-off" posture took sharper relevance over the weekend after a dramatic U.S.-led strike of Iranian leadership that sought to topple the Islamic regime. The S&P 500 slipped 0.6%, while Small-Caps slid nearly 2%. The policy-sensitive 2-Year Treasury Yield dipped to the lowest level since August 2022. Oil prices swelled to seven-month highs.

U.S. equity markets climbed to fresh record highs in the Christmas-shortened trading week, buoyed by surprisingly solid GDP data, positive holiday spending trends, and a pullback in global interest rates. The delayed GDP report released this week showed a modest reacceleration in U.S. economic growth in the third-quarter to the strongest pace in two years alongside a cooler-than-expected inflation reading. Precious metals stole the show. Gold, silver, and platinum extended a historic rally fueled by a combination of easing rates, central-bank buying, end-market demand, and investor appetite for hard assets.
