U.S. Jobs Data Lift Wall Street, but Financial Markets Remain Uncertain

U.S. labor market data are giving Wall Street a positive session, but overall sentiment in financial markets remains neutral and investors, awaiting U.S. inflation data (due tomorrow), continue to show limited directional conviction in their decisions. This morning, futures indicate a broadly uncertain opening for Europe and a positive one for Wall Street.

Financial markets today display a neutral/slightly positive sentiment. Intermarket analysis highlights a Market Health Score of 50/100 (neutral). Looking at our intermarket dashboards, we are still unable to identify a clearly positive turning point regarding risk-on positioning. The S&P 500/VIX ratio, highly volatile, maintains a short-term bearish bias and is once again testing the support of its long-term moving average. Weakness in the technology sector continues, while gold remains broadly stable.
At the same time, the three main asset classes show no signs of deterioration in their medium-term trends. Correlations remain close to zero, making the current environment favorable for diversification.

Pre-Market Futures: Global futures point to a moderate risk-off sentiment (-0.03% on average), with the U.S. slightly positive (+0.31%), Europe slightly negative (-0.05%), and Asia slightly negative (-0.46%).
