Labor market weakness flashes recession warning as QQQ slides after hours.
QQQ is down 0.28% to $718.45 in extended trading, underperforming while risk assets show mixed signals. MARA leads the group at +2.72% ($9.68) and IONQ holds gains at +1.67% ($43.44), suggesting selective risk appetite despite macro headwinds. AMD at $474.32 and QBTS at $20.23 are barely green — not the broad strength you want to see if this is a genuine risk-on move.
Watch: QQQ $718.45 — a break below this level overnight accelerates defensive rotation. Track whether MARA and IONQ fade into close; divergence from QQQ widens if macro fear deepens into Wednesday's open.
