Anti-Fragile book (Dalio / Gave) Disinflationary boom
AIOil and gold eased while copper, HY and the Nasdaq stayed bid — that is growth-up/inflation-down, not yesterday’s oil+copper inflationary boom. Own TLT again, cut the commodity sleeve, and keep a larger SPLV stub. A WTI close back above $100 would flip the quadrant the other way.
• Trim high-beta memory/tech (SMH/SNDK) to the Trend Follow 50-day
• Rebalance Anti-Fragile toward the standing Dalio/Gave book, do not wait for VIX 25
AI0/4 hard triggers fired. 2 of 10 internals are watch (stock-bond corr +0.32, DXY 5s +1.3%) and none are stress — a surface-calm tape that still pays the standing book. Quadrant flips to disinflationary_boom: copper/equities firm, HY 2.66, gold/copper 9.66 down from 10.15, oil offered. That cuts TLT back in and takes gold/DBC down; crash hedge stays 0 on risk-on.

YESTERDAY'S MARKET RETROSPECTIVE
Tuesday’s S&P 500 was flat at 7,764.64 while the Nasdaq printed another record 27,244 as oil slipped back under $100 on Iran-talk and Saudi pipeline headlines; the Dow lost 0.36% as banks sold the hike tape.
Bridge to Today
Watch whether Connect (23–24 Sep) and Thursday’s Tokyo reopen extend the memory/tech bid, or whether a crude bounce puts the 10-year back on 5%.

Glossary
backwardation
A term structure where nearer maturities cost more than later ones, often a stress signal for VIX.
basis point
One hundredth of a percentage point (0.01%).
yield curve
Yields of government bonds across maturities; an inverted curve (short above long) has often preceded slowdowns.
conviction
The desk’s 0-10 score for how strongly the evidence supports an idea; not a probability.
contango
A term structure where later maturities cost more than nearer ones.
drawdown
Peak-to-trough decline of a price or portfolio.
breadth
How many stocks participate in a market move (for example % above their 200-day average).
Sharpe
Excess return per unit of volatility; higher is better.
2s10s
The 10-year yield minus the 2-year yield, a common curve-shape gauge.
beta
Sensitivity of a stock to market moves; 1.0 moves with the market.
VIX
CBOE Volatility Index: the options market’s price for 30-day S&P 500 volatility; higher means more expected turbulence.
RSI
Relative Strength Index: a 0-100 momentum gauge; above 70 is often read as overbought, below 30 as oversold.
P/E
Price-to-earnings ratio: share price divided by earnings per share.
OAS
Option-adjusted spread: the extra yield of a bond over a risk-free benchmark, adjusted for embedded options.
RRG
Relative Rotation Graph: plots relative strength and its momentum to show leaders and laggards.
ATH
All-time high.
TWR
Time-weighted return: performance that removes the effect of cash flows in and out.
