For most of the past two years, investors have focused on the stock market’s resilience.

The Treasury selloff takes a break, causing yields to fall slightly as markets worry about the inflationary consequences of the U.S.-Iran standoff. Oil futures slip, but remain high enough to keep policymakers on their toes.

Although the lawsuit means it’s possible you could get some cash from Amazon, don’t expect two-day shipping.

The selloff in U.S. government bonds has paused for now, but it’s gotten Wall Street to ask: How much more turmoil would it take to push President Trump to soften his stance on Iran? The textbook example took place in April last year, when a messy sell-off in the bond market led Trump to pause sweeping tariffs on dozens of countries. “Judging by the post-'Liberation Day’ episode last spring, market conditions might need to get considerably worse to generate a similar full-scale retreat,” Capital Economics wrote in a research note Tuesday.

AI’s big bucks go mostly toward computing gear like chips and servers in data centers. Should that trend persist, it could come to bite suppliers including chip giant Nvidia which reports quarterly results after the bell today. Nvidia can insulate itself from cost inflation by expanding offerings that don’t require as much in-demand memory, by passing on higher prices to customers and by inking longer-term deals with its own suppliers at lower prices.

What inflation? Despite rising costs and economic uncertainty, consumers are showing resiliency. Trader Talk host Kenny Polcari breaks down the true state of this with PwC Consumer Markets Industry Leader Ali Furman and Wall Street Alliance Group Partner Aadil Zaman.

Conflicting signals could make things even more confusing for investors.

Stocks looked set to edge higher on Wednesday as Wall Street waited for earnings from Nvidia, which could end a recent rough spell for the market by signaling that the artificial-intelligence investment boom still has legs. The indexes have all dropped for three straight sessions as investors fretted about rising bond yields. The worry is that the Iran war has triggered a flare-up in inflation that will strengthen the case for the Federal Reserve to hike interest rates later in 2026.

Stock futures edged higher and global bond yields stabilized following a sharp selloff in government debt.
