In this week’s episode
Markets staged a relief rally in a volatile, headline-driven week, but the bigger picture hasn’t changed. Geopolitics and rising oil prices remain key risks, keeping pressure on inflation and rates, while the rebound looks more like an oversold bounce than a confirmed bottom.
Under the surface, pockets of strength are emerging, but this remains a trader’s market. Two-way volatility favors smaller size and active management, with relief rallies offering a chance to rebalance as choppy, sideways conditions likely persist.
