Tuesday premarket context is more defensive than Monday’s close: Reuters reported that U.S. stock-index futures slipped as crude prices and Treasury yields rose, while a separate source-reported capture put the 10-year yield above 5%; no signed numerical futures or live Treasury quote was returned. The working transmission is oil supply risk → inflation and discount-rate sensitivity → pressure on growth and cyclicals, with Energy relative strength. Official August CPI was +0.4% month over month and +3.4% year over year; core CPI was +0.3% month over month and +2.4% year over year. August PPI was +5.4% year over year, and official H.15 data through Sep. 11 showed a 4.96% 10-year nominal yield and 2.60% 10-year real yield. Energy is the primary focus, Industrials a repair-versus-breakdown case, and Materials a conditional watch. The Sep. 15–16 FOMC and Sep. 16 EIA G.17 releases are the next hard checkpoints.
