Conclusion
Leveraged equity products led the day, with quantum-computing single-stock funds dominating gains while inverse Nasdaq exposure lagged. Rotation favored growth-heavy and financial-linked products, and cross-asset leadership skewed toward equity index and industry funds rather than commodities or bonds. Commodities showed split action, with inverse gold and oil-levered funds diverging, and bond ETFs posted modest, income-led advances. Dispersion between leveraged longs and inverse strategies was pronounced, reflecting the session’s risk-on equity bias.
