1. Executive summary

What matters today

  • Global equities remain under pressure: S&P 500 is down +3.39% over one month with a 96% risk-off posterior.
  • Growth leadership is still absent: Nasdaq daily move was +2.59% and model volatility is 28.1% annualized.
  • USD/KRW strengthened to 1,425.42, up -5.18% 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 4.63% 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 ROKU with score 0.777 and 61.1% 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 64,086.00, Ethereum at 1,867.74, and the sentiment gauge reads 27 (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.
