About this video

Geopolitical tensions, elevated energy prices, rising yields and private credit concerns weigh on some parts of the market, but the tech stocks continue to play in their own league.

At the same time, today's US jobs report could reinforce the narrative that the economy remains resilient despite growing concerns about AI-driven job losses and slowing growth.
