Wednesday, Sep 9, 2026, then tomorrow

Broad selling hit nine of eleven sectors, with the Russell 2000 leading losses at -1.36% and the Dow dropping roughly 400 points for a third consecutive down session. The twin catalyst was clear: Brent crude topped $101 a barrel after Iran's IRGC claimed strikes near the Strait of Hormuz, and the 10-year Treasury yield rose 6 basis points to 4.85%, its highest since October 2023. Rate-sensitive sectors bore the worst damage: Industrials -1.50%, Consumer Staples -1.17%, Utilities -1.16%, Consumer Discretionary -1.33%. Energy (XLE, +0.83%) and Technology (+0.01%) were the only green sectors, with AI-related names catching a bid on AMD's data-center commentary, Nebius reporting 15-20% auction premiums for Nvidia (NVDA) Blackwell compute, and SK Hynix memory news. The Hormuz tension and yield pressure carry directly into tomorrow.

Tomorrow

Thursday, Sep 10, 2026

What is scheduled, with ET times. Not a forecast of how it lands.

PPI prints at 8:30 AM ET, a high-impact release that front-loads volatility into the open; the 10-year already at 4.85% makes any upside PPI surprise acutely risk-negative. Adobe (ADBE) and Oracle (ORCL) both report after the close at approximately 4:05 PM ET, bookending the session with a second volatility window. CPI follows Friday Sep 11 at 8:30 AM ET, and the Fed decision lands Sep 16 at 2:00 PM ET (press conference 2:30 PM ET) alongside Retail Sales at 8:30 AM ET that same day. Watch whether PPI validates or softens the yield move; the tape's reaction to PPI will set the tone for Friday's CPI positioning.

What in the report would support or undermine our published research.

  • ADBEMulti-month rating on holdThu 09-10-2026 ยท after the close

    Confirms: Firefly ARR commentary showing accelerating AI monetization and digital media net-new ARR growing above prior-year comps would support the durability thesis.

    Breaks: A deceleration in digital media net-new ARR below prior-year comps, or operating margin falling toward or below the low-30s range, would validate AI-disruption concerns.

Session structure

How the calendar shapes each holding period. Descriptive only: not advice, and not a recommendation to trade anything.

โšก ScalpTomorrow's session has two defined volatility concentrations: the PPI release at 8:30 AM ET and the ADBE and ORCL earnings reports beginning around 4:05 PM ET. Bid-ask spreads and order flow tend to be least stable immediately around high-impact economic prints and major after-close earnings.
โ˜€๏ธ Day tradeThe PPI print at 8:30 AM ET structurally front-loads the session's price discovery, particularly for rate-sensitive sectors that were the sharpest decliners today. The day's second bookend is after the 4:05 PM ET close, when both ADBE and ORCL release results, which can affect software and broader tech sentiment heading into Thursday's overnight.
๐ŸŒŠ SwingAny position held across the next several days sits inside a dense macro calendar: PPI on Sep 10 at 8:30 AM ET, CPI on Sep 11 at 8:30 AM ET, and the Fed decision on Sep 16 at 2:00 PM ET with a press conference at 2:30 PM ET and Retail Sales also on Sep 16 at 8:30 AM ET. Today's breadth reading of 2 of 11 sectors positive and a VIX move from 15.72 to 16.46 describe the current risk environment for multi-day holders.
๐ŸŒฒ Long termThe 10-year Treasury yield at 4.85%, its highest since October 2023, is the macro variable most relevant to long-duration equity valuation. The sequence of CPI on Sep 11 at 8:30 AM ET and the Fed decision on Sep 16 at 2:00 PM ET are the next scheduled inputs that bear on where rates settle over the coming months.
