Bade themes jo abhi Dow ko drive kar rahe hain: 

1. Semiconductor selloff — Samsung ke Q2 results expectations pe khare nahi utre, aur reports aayi ki China ka DeepSeek apna AI chip bana raha hai — isse Nvidia jaisi companies ko competition ka darr, aur poore chip sector (Micron, KLA, Marvell, Broadcom) mein bikwali. 

2. Oil/geopolitics — Iran ne Strait of Hormuz ke paas tankers pe attack kiya, US ne Iranian oil license revoke karne ka bhi sanket diya. Brent crude 5%+ chadh gaya — yeh yields aur inflation worries badhata hai. 

3. FOMC Minutes aaj shaam (2 PM ET) — Sabse bada event. New Fed Chair Kevin Warsh ne apna khud ka rate dot nahi diya tha June meeting mein, toh yeh minutes September rate-hike ke baare mein sabse important clue denge. 

4. Corporate news mix: 

1. Microsoft 4,800 jobs cut kar raha hai (Xbox division sabse zyada affected) 

2. Amazon $25 billion bond sale plan kar raha hai 

3. Rivian stock 10%+ gira ek naye share offering ke announcement ke baad 

4. SpaceX Nasdaq-100 mein officially join kar chuka hai 

5. Big picture: S&P 500 ne first half 2026 mein 10.2% return diya hai — history batati hai ki jab pehla half itna strong hota hai, second half bhi positive rehta hai (89% cases mein, since 1980)
