Cross-market & !QAZ’s verdict
!QAZ(Chair): The macro picture presents a divergence: while volatility suggests underlying stability and bonds lean bullish, credit, liquidity, and commodities all point toward bearish conditions. This suggests caution is warranted across asset classes, despite some regional strength noted in Korean consumer and materials sectors. The market appears to be digesting conflicting signals between cyclical strength and systemic caution.
