The CPI Wait-and-See: Why Institutional Sellers Faded Monday’s Rally

The Monday session closed mixed as a "hollow" rally met a wall of institutional selling. Here is why the "Smart Money" is fading the tape ahead of the February CPI print. 🔔**The Scoreboard:**🚀 Winners: Utilities ($XLU) and Healthcare ($XLV) lead a defensive rotation.📉 Losers: Tech and Semiconductors (NVDA, AMD) suffer a classic "Bull Trap."💸 Volume: Ghost town action with aggregate volume 14% below the 30-day average.**The Look Ahead:** 📊Watch the 6,800 Gamma Wall. If the S&P 500 holds this "Line in the Sand" at Tuesday’s open, expect a magnet effect toward 6,900. If it snaps, the trap door opens toward 6,600. Stay nimble.
