Cross-market & !QAZ’s verdict
!QAZ(Chair): The macro picture presents conflicting signals, notably bearish readings in liquidity and FX contrasting with stable credit strength. While regional equities show neutral readings, the improving trend in crypto suggests some underlying directional shift in risk assets. The overall tape suggests a period of consolidation amidst varied underlying pressures.
