What You NEED to Know About This "Normal" Down Day

Hey there, Brandon Chapman here.

We're seeing something almost foreign in today's markets - what appears to be a "normal" down day.

After the recent volatility storm, this feels like a welcome breath of fresh air.

But is this the calm before another storm... or the beginning of a reversal?

• How the S&P managed to claw back to near FLAT today after the weekend's China tariff announcement sent futures plummeting overnight...

• The SHOCKING reason Treasury bonds are selling off during market hostility (hint: it involves foreign countries and their desperate need to defend their currencies)

• Why the Chinese yuan's surprising STRENGTH today might actually be a RED FLAG for global markets...

• The "90% day" capitulation signal we just triggered for only the THIRD time in the last year — and what happened the previous two times this rare pattern appeared...

• DANGER AHEAD: How rising Treasury yields could transform a tariff-triggered selloff into something much more SERIOUS for corporate America...

• The ONE metric I'm watching that could determine if this becomes a short-term bounce like December 18th or a potential bottom like August 5th...

• PLUS: The "risk spreading" phenomenon happening right now in corporate bonds that nobody's talking about (but could be the REAL threat lurking beneath the surface)...

I've laid out all the critical details - including specific ETFs I'm watching and potential trade setups - in today's market update video.

With the VIX still at 46% and the administration seemingly welcoming this market turmoil, now is NOT the time to be complacent. The moves you make in the next few trading days could determine how your portfolio performs for the rest of 2025.

Stay sharp,

Brandon Chapman
