by

The markets, like a weary traveler, stumbled into the morning with a heavy heart, their steps faltering as Meta and Microsoft, the titans of tech, plunged into the abyss, while Wall Street, ever the skeptic, watched the dance of Trump and Xi with a mix of hope and dread. 😬📉

  • The S&P 500 and Nasdaq, like two weary horses, stumbled down the hill as Meta and Microsoft, their hooves slipping on the icy path of uncertainty. 🐴
  • The Dow Jones, rising in the morning, then dipped like a tired runner, its breath short and its stride uncertain. 🏃‍♂️
  • Investors, like farmers in a drought, clung to the promise of tech earnings, Powell’s warnings, and a U.S.-China truce, hoping for rain. 🌧️

The markets, burdened by the weight of earnings reports and the whispers of Powell’s words, cast off their gains like a man shedding a heavy coat in the heat. Yet, the fog of uncertainty lingered, thick and unyielding. 🌫️

The Dow, once bold, now hovered like a moth near a flame, its wings trembling at the edge of a precipice. 🦋

Market observers, with eyes squinted against the haze, whispered of certainty, but the road ahead was long and winding. 🛣️
