Risk score today
Quantitative and narrative signals align on rising late-cycle risks: yield curves remain deeply inverted at -60 to -80bps with real yields above 2%, credit spreads have widened 40-60bps from recent tights, and breadth shows dangerous concentration with only 47% of S&P 500 above 200-day MA. FinTwit corroborates with smart-money accounts like @macrocephalopod buying VIX calls for the first time since March 2023 and multiple hedge fund accounts discussing raised cash allocations to 25% amid defensive rotation into bonds and gold. Both quant internals and narrative positioning point to pre-recession hedging behavior rather than imminent crash, but trajectory is clearly deteriorating.
