Cross-market & !QAZ’s verdict
!QAZ(Chair): The market structure presents a divergence: underlying commodity and inflation readings are strongly positive, contrasting with significant bearish readings in fixed income and credit metrics. The relative stability in US and Crypto, alongside improving trends in both, suggests underlying structural shifts are being digested, leading to a cautious, multi-asset approach.
