Futures rip higher on falling oil and cooling yields, but breadth metrics still flash bearish for a second straight session. The hosts break down the Fed’s hawkish hike, Warsh’s rate-conflict comments, and why narrow chip-and-hardware leadership means traders should wait for the open before chasing the gap.

Action Code: FHP and Trade Scenarios
The hosts lay out a wait-for-confirmation game plan with gap-up and gap-down scenarios for the session.
Key points
Breadth remains bearish (28.38% above 40-day average, down two sessions) even as futures surge, signaling a conflict traders should let the open resolve.
Falling oil prices and a potential Iran diplomatic catalyst are easing the inflation narrative that drove yields sharply higher after Wednesday's Fed hike.
Market leadership is dangerously narrow — concentrated in semiconductors and hardware — while financials and energy remain under pressure.
The continuation scan is chip-heavy (ALAB, Dell, Lumentum) with a standout surprise in Generac on an $8B AI-data-center generator deal with Amazon.
Action code is FHP (wait for open to confirm); if it holds, selectively buy quality chip pullbacks, but stand aside on any fade given weak breadth.
