New York Session Market Analysis

1. Header

• Date: Friday, July 10, 2026
• Report timestamp: Friday, 10 July 2026 at 18:10 WIB / Friday, 10 July 2026 at 11:10 UTC
• Coverage window: Asia session, London session, U.S. pre-market, and the setup for the New York cash session into early after-hours.
• Data freshness note: Report timestamp 2026-07-10 18:04 WIB / 2026-07-10 11:04 UTC. Cross-asset prices are approximate live/pre-market snapshots; official U.S. Treasury constant-maturity yields are the July 9, 2026 close (2Y 4.16%, 10Y 4.54%) and may lag intraday trading.
• Session bias: Mixed with selective risk-on pockets in semis and crypto, but still defensive against geopolitical headline gaps.

2. Executive Summary

• The biggest global driver into New York is a partial unwind of the oil-and-inflation panic after Washington signaled negotiations with Iran could continue.
• The U.S. setup is mixed rather than impulsive: NAS100 futures 29,841.5 (-0.32%), ES futures 7,588.0 (-0.01%), Dow futures 52,866 (+0.20%), Russell 2000 futures 3,005.7 (-0.09%).
• The USD/yield theme is softer on the margin: DXY 100.83 (-0.11%), U.S. 2Y 4.16% and 10Y 4.54% on the official July 9 Treasury close, while intraday bond tone remains firmer than mid-week highs.
• Europe mostly held Asia's relief tone rather than fully fading it; FTSE, DAX, and CAC are only slightly positive, so the handoff is calm but not conviction-heavy.
• Gold eased to $4,117.4 (-0.32%) and WTI steadied near $72.23 (+0.21%); BTC/ETH/SOL are firmer, with derivatives data showing active but not yet crowded positioning.
• Friday's U.S. calendar is light. That makes Fed's Lorie Logan at 09:30 ET, oil/geopolitical headlines, and cash-session breadth more important than scheduled data.
• Best alpha is in selective USD shorts, tactical gold support, and only buying index beta after confirmation instead of front-running a broad risk-on extension.
• The main risk to this view is a sudden geopolitical re-escalation or a hawkish rates repricing that pushes DXY back above 101 and 10Y yields back toward 4.58%+.

3. What Happened Before New York

• Asia session: Risk appetite improved unevenly. Nikkei 225 +1.20% and Hang Seng +0.60% outperformed, while Shanghai Composite -1.00% lagged. IHSG/JCI +0.20% closed modestly firmer. A key Asia macro driver was Japan's June PPI at +7.1% y/y, faster than expected, which kept BOJ hike expectations alive and helped pressure USDJPY lower.
• London session: Europe kept the relief tone but did not add much momentum. FTSE 100 +0.05%, DAX +0.07%, and CAC 40 +0.07% suggest that London broadly confirmed Asia's calmer tone, but without an aggressive chase.
• European equity and FX moves: EURUSD and GBPUSD stayed bid versus a softer dollar, while European autos remained pressured by China delivery weakness. That matters because it caps enthusiasm for pure cyclical Europe-led upside.
• U.S. futures movement: Tech beta is softer than the broad tape, with NQ lagging ES and Dow futures. That points to a selective rather than universal risk bid into the U.S. open.
• Rates and bond reaction: Official U.S. Treasury close for July 9 showed 2Y 4.16% and 10Y 4.54%, both lower versus the prior day as crude retreated and de-escalation hopes cut some inflation premium.
• Commodities: Gold $4,117.4 (-0.32%), silver $59.91 (-0.78%), copper $6.261 (+0.74%), WTI $72.23 (+0.21%), Brent $76.49 (+0.25%). Oil has not collapsed; it is simply off the most panic-driven highs.
• Crypto: BTC $64,399 (+1.91%), ETH $1,797 (+3.02%), SOL $79.35 (+1.67%). Alternative.me shows Fear & Greed at 23 (Extreme Fear), so the price bounce is happening against still-cautious sentiment, not euphoric positioning.
• News and macro flow: Internal Metavulus feed flagged easing U.S.-Iran fears, a softer dollar correction, persistent BOJ pricing after Japan PPI, and more focus shifting toward next week's U.S. CPI plus the start of major-bank earnings on July 14, 2026.
• Did London confirm or fade Asia? London mostly confirmed Asia's direction, but in a lower-energy way. The move became a stabilization handoff, not a fresh momentum impulse.

4. New York Open Market Snapshot

• NAS100 futures: 29,841.5, -0.32%. Tech still has buyers, but the open likely needs confirmation above 29,900 before extending.
• S&P 500 futures: 7,588.0, -0.01%. Broad market is flat and waiting for headlines.
• Dow futures: 52,866, +0.20%. Old-economy and defensives are holding up better than pure growth beta.
• Russell 2000 futures: 3,005.7, -0.09%. Small caps are not confirming a full risk-on restart yet.
• DXY: 100.83, -0.11%. Dollar strength is fading, but not fully broken.
• EURUSD: 1.1438, +0.14%. Still grinding above 1.14 as yields cool.
• GBPUSD: 1.3436, +0.30%. Sterling benefits from softer USD rather than a unique domestic catalyst.
• USDJPY: 161.78, -0.47%. Lower U.S. yields and hot Japan PPI both support further downside if Treasuries stay calm.
• AUDUSD: 0.6951, +0.21%. Pro-risk FX is firmer, but not enough yet to declare a broad breakout.
• USDCNH: 6.7784, approximately flat intraday. CNH is stable, but China-growth headlines still matter.
• USDIDR: 18,050, -0.41%. Mild EM FX relief while the dollar softens.
• U.S. 2Y / 10Y yields: 4.16% / 4.54% using the official July 9 close. Lower than the prior day, but still elevated enough to limit index multiple expansion.
• VIX: 15.89, +0.32%. Vol is contained, which helps equities, but it also means markets may be underpricing headline gaps.
• Gold: $4,117.4, -0.32%. Safe-haven premium is easing, not gone.
• WTI crude: $72.23, +0.21%. Oil remains geopolitically sticky.
• BTC / ETH / SOL: $64.4k / $1.80k / $79.35, all green on the day. Crypto is following the softer-dollar/lower-yield pocket.
• Mega-cap / sector tone: AMD +5.66%, Apple +0.90%, Microsoft +0.27%, NVIDIA -0.66%, TSM flat versus previous close. Semis still lead tactically, but leadership is not perfectly uniform.

5. Key Macro and Geopolitical Drivers

• U.S. macro and Fed expectations: Internal market-wire pricing shows roughly 32 bps of Fed tightening still priced by year-end and a 78% probability of no change at the next meeting. Inference: this is a softer stance than during the worst oil spike, but not a clean dovish reset.
• Treasury yields and liquidity: The decline in oil from peak-war pricing let the Treasury market recover modestly. Still, a 10Y at 4.54% and a 30Y above 5% mean duration is not easy enough to unleash a broad small-cap or unprofitable-tech chase.
• Earnings and sector leadership: Traders are already looking ahead to the July 14-16, 2026 kick-off from JPMorgan, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, Citi, Morgan Stanley, BlackRock, ASML, TSMC, UnitedHealth, and Netflix. That caps willingness to add indiscriminate equity beta today.
• European carryover: European indices were stable but not explosive. China-linked auto weakness kept a lid on cyclicals, so New York inherits calm, not euphoria.
• China / Japan / Asia risk: Japan's producer inflation surprise keeps BOJ repricing alive and matters directly for USDJPY and indirectly for global carry risk. China demand weakness remains visible in European auto headlines, which is a drag on global growth optimism.
• Oil and geopolitical risk: The market is trading a contained-conflict base case, not a solved-conflict base case. WTI above $72 and Brent above $76 keep inflation sensitivity alive.
• Crypto-specific risk: Metavulus OI data shows BTC OI/volume 0.68x, ETH 0.55x, SOL 0.73x, with funding rates still low and classified as mixed, not crowded. That argues against an immediate liquidation cascade, but also says crypto does not yet have a euphoric breakout engine.
• Positioning / volatility / liquidity: VIX is subdued, but MOVE index, credit spreads, dealer gamma, and ETF flow dashboards were unavailable at publish time. Treat the positioning read as incomplete rather than fully confirmed.

6. Asset-by-Asset Analysis

A. Forex

• Current bias: Mild USD softening versus EUR, GBP, AUD, and JPY.
• Key levels: DXY 100.50 / 101.20; EURUSD 1.1400 / 1.1500; GBPUSD 1.3380 / 1.3500; USDJPY 161.20 / 162.50; AUDUSD 0.6900 / 0.7000; USDCNH 6.75 / 6.82; USDIDR 17,950 / 18,150.
• Bullish scenario: If oil stays contained and Treasuries stay bid, EURUSD and GBPUSD can extend higher while USDJPY grinds lower toward 161.20.
• Bearish scenario: If Logan sounds hawkish or geopolitics re-escalate, DXY can reclaim 101 and reverse the G10 rebound.
• Invalidation: DXY above 101.20 with 10Y yields back above 4.58%.
• What to watch: USDJPY sensitivity to both U.S. yields and BOJ repricing; CNH reaction to China-growth headlines; whether AUDUSD can actually clear 0.6950/0.7000.

B. U.S. equities

• Current bias: Selective risk, not broad risk-on.
• Key levels: NAS100 29,700 / 30,000; ES 7,540 / 7,620; Dow futures 52,600 / 53,100; Russell 2000 2,980 / 3,030.
• Bullish scenario: NQ reclaim above 29,900 with VIX below 16.5 and yields stable opens the door for a retest of 30,100-30,150.
• Bearish scenario: If semis fade and small caps fail to confirm, the tape can roll into a range or shallow reversal.
• Invalidation: ES below 7,540 or NQ below 29,650 on expanding breadth weakness.
• What to watch: Cash-open breadth, equal-weight confirmation, semis/AI leadership, and whether small caps or banks participate.

C. Global equities summary including IHSG/JCI

• Current bias: Asia constructive, Europe calm, China still the laggard.
• Key levels / references: Nikkei strong above this week's recovery base; Hang Seng holding relief gains; Shanghai still heavy; JCI modestly firmer at 5,924.36.
• Bullish scenario: Asia relief plus stable oil lets U.S. equities extend without needing Europe to lead.
• Bearish scenario: China-growth disappointment or geopolitical headlines erase Europe/Asia calm.
• Invalidation: A sharp reversal in Nikkei/JPY or a renewed China selloff that drags cyclicals.
• What to watch: JPY, China delivery headlines, and whether JCI/EMFX can hold firmer tone if DXY rebounds.

D. Crypto

• Current bias: Constructive but tactical.
• Key levels: BTC 63,000 / 65,500; ETH 1,760 / 1,825; SOL 77 / 81.
• Bullish scenario: Softer DXY plus stable yields allow ETH and SOL to outperform BTC into New York.
• Bearish scenario: If equities wobble and DXY bounces, crypto can give back gains quickly because sentiment is still fragile.
• Invalidation: BTC back below 63,000 or ETH below 1,760 with funding turning sharply positive on weakness.
• What to watch: OI expansion without overheated funding, ETF-flow headlines if they surface, and cross-asset correlation with NAS100.

E. Metals

• Current bias: Gold structurally supported, but near-term cooling after safe-haven spike.
• Key levels: Gold 4,090 / 4,145; Silver 59.0 / 61.0; Copper 6.18 / 6.32.
• Bullish scenario: Another yield drop or renewed geopolitical stress quickly reactivates gold demand.
• Bearish scenario: If de-escalation holds and real yields back up, gold can consolidate lower.
• Invalidation: Gold below 4,090 with DXY and yields rising together.
• What to watch: Real-yield direction, oil headlines, and whether copper strength confirms growth resilience.

F. Energy

• Current bias: Headline-supported, range-trading upside risk.
• Key levels: WTI 71.00 / 74.50; Brent 75.00 / 78.50; Nat gas 2.90 / 3.10.
• Bullish scenario: Any renewed Strait of Hormuz or U.S.-Iran escalation pushes crude back through the weekly highs.
• Bearish scenario: Further diplomatic easing keeps crude capped and removes inflation pressure from the rest of the tape.
• Invalidation: WTI below 71 on clear de-escalation headlines.
• What to watch: Oil headlines first, EIA/nat-gas reaction second.

G. Rates / bonds / macro risk

• Current bias: Yields easing, but still high enough to matter.
• Key levels: U.S. 2Y 4.10 / 4.22; U.S. 10Y 4.50 / 4.58.
• Bullish scenario for risk assets: 10Y holds below 4.55 and 2Y below 4.18, allowing FX beta, gold, and growth to stabilize.
• Bearish scenario: Oil re-accelerates and pushes inflation premium back into the curve.
• Invalidation: 10Y above 4.58% or 30Y re-accelerating materially above 5.10%.
• What to watch: Logan remarks, front-end auction demand, and whether next-week CPI risk gets repriced early.

H. Volatility and positioning

• Current bias: Low-vol surface, incomplete positioning read.
• Key levels: VIX 15.5 / 17.0.
• Bullish scenario: VIX stays contained and breadth improves after cash open.
• Bearish scenario: Headline shock with low starting vol creates a fast air pocket.
• Invalidation: VIX above 17 with indices losing opening-range support.
• What to watch: Opening breadth, semis versus defensives, and whether calm crypto funding remains intact.

8. What To Watch During New York

• Lorie Logan at 09:30 ET / 20:30 WIB.
• Any fresh U.S.-Iran, Strait of Hormuz, or broader Middle East headlines.
• Whether 10Y yields stay below 4.55% and DXY stays below 101.
• Cash-open breadth: can advancing issues, equal-weight, and semis agree?
• Semiconductor / AI leadership, especially AMD, NVIDIA, TSMC, and the broader chip basket.
• Bank and small-cap participation; without them, index upside is narrower-quality.
• Gold's reaction if headlines worsen while equities stay calm.
• Oil's reaction around WTI 72-74.5 and Brent 76-78.5.
• Crypto OI and funding: do BTC/ETH/SOL extend with calm leverage or start overheating?
• Technical pivots: NQ 29,900, ES 7,620, DXY 101.20, Gold 4,090, BTC 63,000.

9. Event Calendar for the U.S. Session

• EIA Natural Gas Stocks Change (already released before New York open) — United States — 14:30 WIB / 03:30 ET — Medium — Assets: nat gas, energy equities. Actual: +61 Bcf. Bullish for gas if materially tighter than expected; bearish if storage keeps building comfortably.
• 4-week and 8-week U.S. bill auctions (passed pre-open) — United States — 15:30 WIB / 04:30 ET — Low — Assets: front-end rates, USD. Consensus: not applicable. Strong demand is mildly risk-supportive; weak demand can nudge front-end yields higher.
• Fed's Lorie Logan speaks — United States — 20:30 WIB / 09:30 ET — Medium — Assets: USD, Treasuries, gold, equity futures. Consensus/previous: not applicable. Bullish risk if she sounds comfortable with stabilization; bearish risk if she reinforces sticky-inflation or higher-for-longer concerns.
• Federal Reserve balance sheet — United States — Saturday, July 11, 2026 04:30 WIB / Friday, July 10, 2026 17:30 ET — Low — Assets: rates, USD, liquidity-sensitive risk assets. Previous: $6.736T. Usually low immediate impact, but a liquidity surprise would matter at the margin.
• Forward-looking risk just beyond today's session: U.S. June CPI on Tuesday, July 14, 2026 at 08:30 ET / 19:30 WIB and the major-bank earnings kickoff on Monday, July 14, 2026 remain the next real volatility anchors.

10. Trader and Investor Playbook

For short-term traders

• Preferred stance: Selective risk, not broad chase.
• Stronger-looking assets: EURUSD, GBPUSD, gold support, ETH, and USDJPY downside.
• Weaker-looking assets: broad USD rebound attempts above DXY 101, lower-quality small-cap beta, and any late oil-sensitive equity chase.
• Where not to chase: index longs before NQ reclaims 29,900 or while Russell remains non-confirming.
• Where to wait: gold at 4,090-4,100, EURUSD above 1.1400, USDJPY rallies into 162.20-162.50.
• London-versus-New-York read: New York is more likely to continue the calmer London tone if headlines stay quiet, but it can reverse much faster than London if oil or Fed rhetoric turns.
• Risk management: keep size smaller around Logan, geopolitics, and any sudden repricing of next-week CPI expectations.

For medium-term investors

• Preferred stance: Selective risk-on with hedges.
• Stronger areas: high-quality AI/semis leadership, selective gold exposure as a macro hedge, and core crypto only if BTC stays above 63k.
• Weaker areas: low-quality cyclicals that need a bigger yield drop, China-sensitive Europe without demand improvement, and anything purely dependent on oil staying low.
• Where not to chase: late-day momentum in semis after outsized squeezes.
• Where to wait for better entries: broad indices if yields retest lower after next week's CPI, or gold on pullbacks that hold support.
• Continuation or fade? Medium-term, the London move looks like stabilization, not a final all-clear. Investors should demand confirmation from earnings and inflation data.
• Risk management: keep hedges or dry powder into July 14-16, 2026 because CPI and earnings can reset cross-asset correlations quickly.

11. Risks and Invalidations

• Surprise U.S.-Iran or broader Middle East escalation.
• Hawkish Logan comments on inflation, oil, or the balance-sheet/liquidity backdrop.
• Treasury auction slippage that pushes front-end and long-end yields higher together.
• A sudden rebound in DXY back above 101.20.
• 10Y yields breaking back above 4.58%.
• Oil shock that revives inflation panic.
• Semiconductor leadership failing after the open.
• Crypto liquidation cascade if equities roll and BTC loses 63k.
• Volatility spike from a low-VIX starting point.
• Late-session liquidity reversal as desks de-risk ahead of the weekend and next week's CPI.
