๐Ÿ”ฎ Nightly SPY / SPX Scenarios for August 8, 2025 ๐Ÿ”ฎ
๐ŸŒ Market-Moving News ๐ŸŒ

๐Ÿงพ Tariff Shock โ†’ Day 2 Positioning
Markets are still digesting the new tariff regime (10%โ€“41% on broad imports) and the proposed 100% levy on imported semiconductors with carve-outs for firms investing in U.S. production. Expect continued dispersion: U.S.-capex-heavy names bid; globally exposed hardware, autos, and consumer electronics face margin risk until rules are clarified.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Policy Signaling Risk
Fed speakers are leaning cautious on growth and inflation pass-through from tariffs; Bostic flagged skepticism that tariff-driven price effects fade quickly. Translation: donโ€™t count on a rapid dovish pivot because of tariffs alone.

โ›ฝ Energy & Positioning Into the Weekend
Oil beta in focus: Baker Hughes U.S. rig count (1:00 pm ET) and CFTC COT (3:30 pm ET) hit this afternoonโ€”both can nudge energy, USD, and risk appetite into the close.
