US stocks edge higher as WTI drops more than 3% and 10-year yield slips to 4.65%
AI Market Summary
Equities edged higher as WTI fell over 3%, easing inflation expectations and pulling US 10-year yields down ~5 bp to ~4.65%, providing a supportive macro backdrop for risk assets. The oil drop was tied to reports of reduced near-term Middle East escalation risk, though Iran-related sanction rhetoric keeps tail risks elevated. Softer US new home sales and consumer confidence tempered gains, while chips rebounded ahead of Nvidia earnings.
