  • ·CRAI at 59: risk appetite neutral — no strong directional bias
  • ·Yield curve flat (0.38%): transition signal — positioning shifts typically follow
  • ·Real rates at 2.15%: restrictive — headwind for gold and growth stocks

Methodology

Positioning data sourced from CFTC Commitments of Traders (Legacy Futures-Only report), published weekly. Percentile ranks computed against 52-week rolling history. Conviction labels reflect positioning extremes: ≥90th or ≤10th percentile = extreme, ≥75th or ≤25th = crowded.

Divergence alerts are computed algorithmically using z-score analysis across correlated market pairs and CFTC positioning vs price action. No editorial judgment or AI-generated narratives are used on this page.

Regime context uses Convex Intelligence Indices (CVRP, CRAI, CNLI) plus yield curve and real rates data from FRED.
