What Drove the Market
Across corroborating market coverage, the session was shaped by several macro and sector drivers. Inflation and Federal Reserve expectations remained an important part of the session's macro setup. Large-cap technology and semiconductor shares were an important index-level influence during the session. Attention also turned toward major retailer earnings for a read on consumer demand and margins.
