Escalating conflict in the Middle East and failed ceasefire talks are pushing oil prices and interest rates higher, dampening hopes for lower inflation this summer. Technology, especially software, remains a defensive sector amid growing macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges, with AI optimism still strong despite valuation concerns. The 10-year Treasury yield is expected to rise to 4.75%-5.00%, likely limiting overall market gains and putting pressure on high-valuation growth stocks. While a bear market is not predicted, a market pause or pullback is anticipated as a healthy reset, offering selective buying opportunities in more affordable sectors.
