U.S. stocks edged modestly higher pre-market Friday (SPX +0.1%, NDX +0.4%) as tech partially recovered from Thursday’s AI-spending rout, the Nasdaq’s worst day since June. Brent crude rose 0.9% to $114/bbl and the 10-year Treasury yield ticked up to 4.97%. S&P 2026 EPS estimates of $368 imply a 20.8x P/E and 4.8% earnings yield—below Treasuries, an inversion last sustained in the late-1990s. I expect treasury yields to retreat as the Iran war ends. I remain cautious on Tesla (220x 2026 P/E, PEG 5x) amid negative revisions, the continued commoditization of autonomy, and its stretched valuation.

Investors are on pace to pour a record $1.3 trillion into global stock funds in 2026, the biggest annual intake ever, per BofA
That would smash the previous record set in 2021, which came in under $1 trillion, based on EPFR fund flow data in BofA's latest Flow ShowUS equity funds are on a record $636 billion pace, and tech funds are on track for a record $196 billionIn the week through Oct 14 alone, $64.5 billion flowed into stock funds while $53.1 billion left cash fundsNow that money is getting tested. The Nasdaq 100 fell 2.9% on Thursday, its worst day since June 23, and $SOXL dropped 20.5%South Korea's KOSPI is down another 2.6% early FridayRecord inflows mean a lot of fresh money bought in near the highs. Even BofA's Michael Hartnett says he's leaning risk-off for the next 3-4 weeks while the cash keeps pouring in, and days like today show how fast crowded trades can unwindSource: StockMarket.News
