Trail

Connection thesis

Synchronized reversal across all mega-cap tech and broad indices after 5 consecutive weeks of stagflationary selling. The uniformity of gains (NVDA +5.59%, GOOGL +5.14%, AMZN +3.64%, QQQ +3.39%, SPY +2.91%) mirrors the inverse of the prior selloff pattern—this is macro re-risk-on, not earnings-driven. The 10Y-2Y spread holding at +0.51 (no inversion, no flight-to-safety) combined with VIX at 30.61 (elevated but not crisis) suggests narrative shift rather than fundamental resolution. This matches the prior cycle pattern: geopolitical risk premium being repriced *down* after de-escalation signaling (Trump Iran messaging from Cycle 447). Risk-on reversals after acute selloffs typically persist 2-4 sessions if the narrative holds.
