20:01 11/06 UTC — Mixed
Financial markets saw mixed and choppy price action during Friday power hour as traders navigated high 0DTE options flow. Selective momentum pushed names like NVDA, APP, and LUNR higher, while broader index sentiment remains guarded due to AI valuation debates and recent tech route pressures.
Major equity indices like SPY and QQQ exhibited range-bound intraday action during power hour following recent technology sell-offs. Traders are heavily divided between viewing current levels as a dead-cat bounce or an oversold buying opportunity. High options volume and 0DTE trading activity are keeping market volatility elevated into the weekend.
