S&P 500 Opens Up 0.41% at 7,805.96; Nasdaq Gains 0.60%

A broad-based open with the Nasdaq outpacing the S&P and Dow suggests leadership is tilting toward growth and technology names rather than defensives or cyclicals. That composition matters more than the headline percentages, which are modest in absolute terms. For crypto and RWA watchers, the relevant question is whether this risk-on tone in equities carries into digital assets or stays siloed within traditional markets; the two have often decoupled on any given session. Whether the Nasdaq's relative strength holds through the close, rather than fading as it did in prior opens, is the open question.
