What is pushing the current reading.
The convergence of global leaders at the Black Swan Summit in India to discuss AI, FinTech, and InsurTech underscores the potential for these technologies to disrupt traditional economic structures in unforeseen ways. The significant selloff in software and services stocks, as investors debate AI's existential threat, further indicates the market's sensitivity to these developments.
