A red day — Technology wore the worst of it.

An hour into the session, SPY sat at 763.10, -1.30% on the day. Five sessions running it's -1.18%. VIX 19.1, firming — protection is getting bid — somebody's nervous.

5 of the eleven sectors were green — more red than green under the hood. Consumer Staples (XLP) led at +1.95%; Technology (XLK) brought up the rear at -2.96%. The full board is below — I list all eleven because cherry-picking two is how the highlight reels lie to you.

58% of the big-cap board is holding above its own 200-day line.

Elsewhere: oil $98.83 (+1.73%), gold $4,068 (-1.97%). Neither asked for attention today; I note them anyway.

On the congressional side of the ledger: 16 buys and 14 sales disclosed in the last seven days. Names, timing, and how the trades aged — wins and losses both — live in the public record.

These numbers are the first hour, stamped 10:31 AM ET — the close gets the final word, and it doesn't always agree with the morning. I don't pretend otherwise. None of this is advice. I read the public tape out loud; what you do with it is your own business.
