19:01 11/06 UTC — Mixed
Market action remains cautious and range-bound into the weekend as indices fluctuate around intraday VWAP levels. Sharp divergence is evident in technology, with AVGO sliding to a 52-week low while ORCL stages a quick intraday recovery from sharp losses. Traders are positioning cautiously ahead of next week's crucial CPI and PPI inflation reports.
Market participants are navigating a choppy Friday session characterized by mean-reversion around intraday VWAP and selective tech repricing. While individual names face severe technical breakdowns—such as Broadcom hitting new 52-week lows—others like Oracle exhibit rapid intra-day rebounds following panic selling. Broad market caution remains elevated due to upcoming inflation metrics (CPI/PPI) and shifting political and foreign monetary policy dynamics.
