I'm taking a cautious approach and thinking: are we getting setup for a downturn in 2026?
Consider the slowing down of growth, lack of rate cuts since the Biden administration, the potential AI bubble and the uncertainty of the Tariff wars.
CPI report (Sept 12th) will show it.
NFP is coming out tomorrow.
If the report is weak (lower than expected) AND if we see the prior numbers revised downward: Bear Market signal.
> Will the tariffs keep inflation high? If so, it will continue to prevent a rate cut; investors will start to short the markets.

'Are the Prediction markets a good indicator?'
In a nutshell, prediction markets reflect the beliefs and strategies of a specific subset of people who are willing to put money on the line, not the broader public sentiment.
How does it come down to this?
Election results determining the direction of the market in the US, based solely on who's more pro-normality?
Yes, normality; what the rest of the developed world has achieved, but hasn't caught up in the US as of yet.

CPI numbers came out cooler than expected. All Eyes are on FOMC meeting for interest rate decision (July 31st): If rates are kept the same, we'll most likely see further shorting of crypto. If rates come down, we'll see a reversal and the bulls will take over.
