The market dodged the oil shock, but the rate trap is still set.
Monday's move was relief, not confirmation. Oil pulled back from the geopolitical cliff, tech found some support, and risk assets stabilized, but the end-of-day fade showed that conviction is still weak.
• The real threat is no longer just the escalation in the Middle East. It's the possibility that stronger labor data, stubborn CPI, and renewed inflationary pressure could force the market to price in a Fed that remains hawkish for longer.
• The 10-year yield, hovering around 4.5%, is the main trigger point. If rates rise while AI chipflation and oil risk take a backseat, the market's favorite growth trades could start facing a much tighter valuation regime.
