Markets are already red and liquidity is thinning. This is just Phase One, not the bottom. This current selloff isn’t fear; it’s sequence—BIG MONEY is dumping into thin liquidity now. Liquidations are fueling moves: over $650M in positions wiped out in a few hours. Large transfers to exchanges after spikes signal rapid risk-off dynamics. Geopolitics could be the real catalyst. A Trump escalation against Iran would press markets in multiple channels at once. ENERGY, RATES, FX, and GLOBAL LIQUIDITY would all be impacted. In a collision of geopolitics with fragile markets, there’s effectively no bid. What we’re watching next. If this selloff continues to break support, risk is skewed to the downside rather than a quick rebound. The current phase is not a macro-evaluation of value—it’s a liquidity-driven cascade. Expect price gaps lower rather than “priced-in” risk gradually.
