What It Shows
The day's biggest moves came from commodities and crypto, not stocks: the silver fund fell 3.45% and the gold fund 2.68%, while Ether lost 3.27% and Bitcoin 1.51%. Natural gas bucked the trend, rising 3.37% and lifting its five-session gain to 14.13%. The metals selloff gave back part of last week's run, when silver had gained 3.66% and gold 2.81% over five sessions. Equities were calmer: all four major indexes closed lower, with the Nasdaq 100 down 0.68%, yet 6 of 11 sectors finished higher. On a day with October inflation data on the calendar, money pulled back from both safe havens and speculative assets at once. Watch whether the selling in metals and crypto deepens in the coming sessions.
