📉 1:01 p.m.: Dow 51,582.71, −0.38% — S&P 7,623.19; Nasdaq −0.11%; Brent $99.20

The pit is open. The averages have not closed. 6:43 was a future.

Yahoo Finance, Friday 1:01 p.m. ET: Dow Jones 51,582.71, down 195.33 from Thursday’s 51,778.04, −0.38%. S&P 500 7,623.19, down 14.57, −0.19%. Nasdaq Composite 26,389.74, down 28.56, −0.11%. Reuters, 9:36 a.m. ET: the Dow opened at 51,826.78, +48.7, +0.09%. That open is retired as a draft. 4:00 p.m. is still the grade. This is not a close.

Brent $99.20. WTI $96.01. Morning Reuters 1008 GMT had Brent $103.17. Thursday evening MarketWatch oil futures were $101.91. Tuesday’s Brent settle remains $108.75. $99.20 is none of those. Funds are 3.75–4%, 12–0. Triple witching — stock, index-option, and futures expirations — is on the calendar today. A calendar is not 4:00. A red 1:01 print is not a cut. Truth Social “One percent, or less” is still a post.

Morning’s Dow E-minis +62 at 6:43 are retired. Buffett as chairman emeritus already sat in that futures file. Hormuz four already ran. We will not promote 1:01 into Thursday’s 51,778.

What this means for you

If you needed 6:43, that was a future. If you needed the open, it was 51,827. If you needed the close, wait for 4:00. Not investment advice.

Bottom line: Dow 51,583 at 1:01. Not a close. Brent $99.20. Not a cut.
