Risk Sentiment Softens as Oil Tests Key Support


SPX/USD (S&P 500) – Pullback Extends from Record Highs

Key Highlights

  • Tech and financials weigh on indices
  • Policy uncertainty pressures sentiment
  • Inflation fears resurface via PPI signals
  • Geopolitical risk adds to caution

Market Overview

US equities extended their pullback on Wednesday as sector-specific weakness combined with rising policy uncertainty. Despite solid economic data, investors showed reduced appetite for risk near record valuation levels.

Technical Outlook (H4)

  • Stochastic recovering from oversold
  • Price below the 20-EMA
  • Stabilization attempt underway

Key Levels

Resistance: 6961.08; 7002.25
Support: 6891.83; 6851.02

Fremora Takeaway

The S&P 500 is digesting gains rather than breaking structure. Holding above 6891 keeps the broader uptrend intact, but bulls must reclaim the 20-EMA to restore confidence. Near-term direction hinges on macro clarity and policy tone.


USO/USD (WTI) – Geopolitical Premium Fades

Key Highlights

  • Oil retreats on Iran de-escalation signals
  • Risk premium unwinds quickly
  • Fundamentals remain oversupplied
  • $60 level becomes key battleground

Market Overview

WTI crude reversed sharply on Wednesday after initial strength, as comments suggesting reduced Iran tensions triggered aggressive profit-taking. The move highlighted how dependent oil prices currently are on geopolitical headlines rather than supply fundamentals.

Technical Outlook (H4)

  • Stochastic falling from overbought
  • Price pressure near the 20-EMA
  • Momentum clearly weakening

Key Levels

Resistance: 61.26; 62.48
Support: 58.56; 57.23

Fremora Takeaway

Oil’s failure to hold above $61 signals fading conviction behind the recent rally. As long as geopolitical risk cools, downside pressure may persist toward the high-$50s. Sustained strength requires renewed tension or supply disruption signals.
