From the Desk · RECOVERY Day 8 (prev. close)
“The market remains in a Recovery regime for the 8th day, with the S&P 500 down 0.83% and Nasdaq down 1.34% on the previous close, as bond yields surge with the US 30-Year Yield hitting its highest level since 2007. Worth watching is the divergence between the Dow's relatively muted 0.26% decline and the Russell 2k's 1.63% drop, as sector rotation appears to favor defensive plays amid inflation angst.”

Nasdaq 100 Falls on Chipmaker Rout as Yields Rise: Markets Wrap
BBG 16h ago
The recent fall in the Nasdaq 100, led by chipmakers, suggests that rising yields are putting pressure on growth stocks. If yields continue to climb, we may see a sector rotation out of tech and into value stocks or bonds. Keep an eye on upcoming tech earnings reports and Fed speeches for potential market catalysts. A sustained increase in yields could lead to economic growth concerns.

US 30-Year Yield Hits Highest Since 2007 on Inflation Angst
With the 30-year US yield hitting its highest level since 2007, investors are increasingly worried about the impact of higher borrowing costs on the economy. If inflation continues to rise, we may see further increases in yields, which could put pressure on equities. Monitor inflation reports and central bank meetings for clues on the future direction of interest rates. A significant stock market decline could be on the horizon if yields remain elevated.

AllianzGI’s Zeng on US Rates & Bond Yields (Correct)
Expert opinions on US rates and bond yields suggest that upward pressure on rates is expected due to inflation concerns. While this doesn't directly impact markets, it may influence investor positioning and strategies. Keep an eye on upcoming economic data releases and central bank meetings for potential rate changes. This could lead to adjustments in portfolios towards higher-yielding assets or hedging against potential rate increases.

Bond Yields Near Two-Decade High Open Rift Among Investors
The surge in bond yields to near two-decade highs is causing a rift among investors, with some expecting a significant economic slowdown and others seeing a continued growth trajectory. This division could lead to market volatility, with potential branches including higher yields and economic slowdown or lower yields and relief rally. Monitor economic data releases and market positioning indicators for clues on the future direction of yields.

US Treasury Secretary Bessent: Expect European partners to support Iran sanctions by blocking Iran's financiers, shuttering its bank branches, and unmasking its shell companies
The US Treasury Secretary's comments on Iran sanctions have increased geopolitical tensions, which could lead to higher oil prices and inflation. If sanctions lead to oil supply disruptions, we may see a significant price spike and global economic impact. Keep an eye on OPEC meetings, international responses to sanctions, and oil inventory levels for potential market catalysts. A sustained increase in oil prices could lead to rate hikes and a market sell-off.

US Treasury Secretary Bessent: Countries in Middle East and Asia also need to root out Iran's shadow banking networks.
The call for global efforts to combat Iran's financial networks has similar implications to the sanctions, with potential for higher oil prices and geopolitical tensions. If global efforts succeed in reducing Iran's economic and financial influence, we may see reduced economic and geopolitical risk. Monitor concrete actions from countries or international bodies and oil market reactions for clues on the future direction of this story. A significant disruption in oil supplies could have far-reaching economic implications.

Ondas has pulled forward its OAS adjusted EBITDA profitability target to Q1 2027, but rising costs and near-term losses raise questions on execution, with Q1 2026 operating loss at $42.7 million and operating cash burn at $51.3 million. The acquisition of Omnisys adds AI-powered defense planning and coordination tools to Ondas' autonomous systems portfolio. Can the company deliver on its profitability target amidst high spending and cash burn?

Important Disclosures
The MOS Regime Inference is powered by a proprietary quantitative engine utilizing a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) Hidden Markov Model ensemble. It combines Bayesian probabilistic state detection with deep learning sequence models across dozens of cross-asset features to identify structural market shifts and early-warning crisis indicators. This model is experimental and subject to inherent statistical uncertainties.
Timing. The issue date above is the publication (send) date. The regime badge, regime_latest.json snapshot, and embedded regime timeline chart are produced when this issue is built: we run hmm_validation_suite.py --inference at the start of that pipeline using the latest trading rows then available in the price cache (often through the prior U.S. session close when today’s full session bar is not yet in the panel). Running inference again later the same day can change SPY, VIX, PBT, and leverage readouts. The timeline chart is a rolling ~90-day view frozen at send time; back-to-back archived issues can look very similar when history overlaps.
This newsletter is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, a recommendation, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security. Options trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance, including backtested results, does not guarantee future returns. Backtested performance has inherent limitations: it is constructed with the benefit of hindsight, does not reflect actual trading, and may not account for all market conditions, transaction costs, or liquidity constraints. The author may hold positions in securities mentioned. All data is believed reliable but accuracy is not guaranteed. Consult a licensed financial advisor before making investment decisions.
