Market Regime: NEUTRAL QNTM's regime overlay reads NEUTRAL — no strong momentum or risk-off signal dominating the model, consistent with a market digesting record highs rather than trending hard either way.

Conviction: 55.3/100 A mid-range score with 18.9% of the 1,000-name scored universe in high-conviction territory per QNTM's data — modest bullish tilt, not a broad "all-clear" across the tape.

On the calendar today No major scheduled US data or Fed speeches stand out this morning. The bigger structural event: index-tracking funds began purchasing shares after the market closes on July 6, with SpaceX officially joining the Nasdaq-100 before trading begins on July 7 , with J.P. Morgan estimating roughly $4.3 billion in passive investment flowing into SPCX shares as index funds rebalance .

Overnight & premarket This follows Monday's record session where the Nasdaq (+1.12%) and S&P 500 (+0.72%) saw the biggest leaps on the backs of tech, financials, and industrials . Overnight, sentiment reversed: futures tied to the tech-heavy index were down 0.9%, while S&P 500 futures lost 0.2%; Dow futures edged higher by 0.3% , as Micron was last seen 5% lower in premarket, with KLA and Marvell also weak . Asia sold off hard: South Korea's Kospi led declines, closing 4.91% lower after the Korea Exchange activated a circuit breaker on an intraday drop over 8% . Oil ticked up on renewed Middle East tensions after a tanker was hit near the Strait of Hormuz .

What to watch 1) Whether chip-stock weakness (Micron, KLA, Marvell) spreads or stays contained. 2) SPCX's first day inside the Nasdaq-100 and QQQ flows. 3) Strait of Hormuz tanker incident and follow-through in oil/energy names.
