Pre-Market Briefing for August 11, 2026
오늘 한눈에
Previous Day Recap
Yesterday on Wall Street, the S&P 500 slipped 0.06%, the Nasdaq fell 0.32%, and the Dow lost 0.11%, with all three indexes closing slightly lower. The energy sector surged 4.66% on the back of a sharp jump in international oil prices and was the lone outperformer, while healthcare also added 1.67%. On the other hand, the technology sector declined 0.88%, with Arm Holdings dropping 5.21% and Marvell Technology falling 4.62%, leading the chip complex lower.
Current Market Sentiment
Nasdaq futures are up 0.12% while Dow futures are down 0.09%, pointing in opposite directions. The backdrop is international oil prices jumping more than 3% as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. With higher fuel costs threatening to rekindle inflationary pressures, investors are in no rush to add risk and are instead waiting for the July Consumer Price Index due at 9:30 p.m. Korea time on the 12th. The key question is whether yesterday's pattern, in which energy and cybersecurity names filled the void left by the chip sell-off, carries over into today's session.

Names to Watch
Palo Alto Networks climbed 5.82% yesterday to close at $385.04, pushing its Relative Strength Index (RSI, a momentum indicator that converts recent price swings into a 0–100 reading) to 70.3 and breaching the upper Bollinger Band (a band plotted above and below a moving average to gauge volatility). CrowdStrike also rose 5.05% to close at $225.25, with the same two signals flashing simultaneously. The AI-driven cybersecurity demand story itself remains intact, but on the indicators alone, both names are sitting in short-term overbought territory. Microsoft gained 1.21% yesterday to close at $506.06, posting an RSI of 79.1 and looking the most stretched of the three. For all three names, this looks more like a moment to wait for a pullback than to chase the rally.
Today's Playbook
Stay calm again today, and have a great session.
