1. Executive summary

What matters today

  • Global equities remain under pressure: S&P 500 is down +12.50% over one month with a 20% risk-off posterior.
  • Growth leadership is still absent: Nasdaq daily move was +1.63% and model volatility is 24.9% annualized.
  • USD/KRW strengthened to 1,476.32, up -2.63% on the month, reinforcing a tighter external backdrop for Korean risk assets.
  • Rates are still the macro stress point: the U.S. 10-year yield sits at 4.31% with Moderate vol conditions.
  • Near-term Bayesian forecast stays defensive: SPX ▲, US10Y ▼, Gold ▲, USD/KRW ▼, Oil ▼.
  • Single-name opportunity remains selective rather than broad: top-ranked long is DLR with score 0.834 and 73.6% 20-day upside probability.

House view

The macro tape still favors selective exposure over broad beta. Risk-off probabilities remain elevated across equities and rates, while FX pressure and high rates volatility keep the overall regime restrictive.

The matrix above is the fastest read on the system: posterior regime conviction is still skewed toward defense, while current volatility remains too elevated to support a clean risk-on chase.

7. Digital assets

Bitcoin trades at 77,527.00, Ethereum at 2,317.27, and the sentiment gauge reads 31 (Fear). That keeps crypto tactical rather than strategic.

8. Bottom line

This is still a preservation-first tape. The sellable setup is not broad bullishness but disciplined selection: keep duration of conviction short, prefer names with strong posterior upside and contained volatility, and treat macro rallies as tactical until rates and FX stress materially cool.
