⚡ SUGGESTED ACTION
SKIP THIS TRADE. While Google's Anthropic data center financing is strategically positive, the market is in acute risk-off mode (VIX +12.72%). Any GOOGL bounce will likely be temporary and reversed by broader selloff. Wait for market stabilization before trading on this catalyst. [MOVE:0.8%]
