Go Long, Go Short… The Market Won’t Stay Still Much Longer
My Market View: Pressure Is Building
Right now we are seeing one of the most unusual setups in modern market history.
The S&P 500 has been stuck in a 5% range since November 2025, more than three months without a real directional move.
Even more extreme, the first 41 trading days of 2026 have traded in just a 2.7% range, the tightest start to a year since records began in 1928.
Markets do not stay compressed like this for long.
When pressure builds like this, the move that follows is usually violent.
And right now the macro environment is getting worse.
The Bad News Piling Up
Recent layoffs announced:
US Government: 300,000 jobs
UPS: 78,000
Amazon: 30,000
Intel: 25,000
Nissan: 20,000
Nestlé: 16,000
Microsoft: 15,000
Bosch: 13,000
Verizon: 13,000
Dell: 12,000
Accenture: 11,000
Ford: 11,000
Novo Nordisk: 9,000
PwC: 5,600
Dow Chemical: 4,000
At the same time:
Oil just posted its largest weekly gain on record, up +34.5%
The Dow dropped 1,500 points this week, the worst week in almost a year
Inflation risks are rising again if energy continues higher
The Iran Risk
Everything right now revolves around Iran and the Strait of Hormuz.
About 20% of global oil flows through that corridor.
If tensions escalate and oil moves above $100, markets will likely enter correction territory.
Higher oil means inflation fears return quickly.
My Prediction
The next 2–3 weeks will decide the direction of the market.
If the conflict with Iran ends or de-escalates, uncertainty disappears and the market could break out of this historic compression.
In that case, April could be a strong up month and the S&P 500 could push to new all-time highs.
But if tensions escalate and oil spikes above $100, the market likely breaks down into a correction.
One More Factor: Midterm Elections
Historically, the president’s party loses seats in midterm elections almost every time.
That political uncertainty will add another layer of volatility to markets as we move into 2026.
The Bottom Line
The market is sitting in one of the tightest ranges in history while bad macro news continues to build.
Layoffs are rising.
Oil is surging.
Geopolitical risk is increasing.
Periods of extreme calm like this rarely last long.
The market is coiled like a spring, and the next move will likely be big. 📈📉

🚨💣🇺🇸📉📈🫡
For those wondering why I anticipate a market downturn, here are 17 reasons why….
1- US banks witnessed their largest weekly deposit outflows since the SVB collapse, with a $70 billion drop in total deposits.
2- The Fed's emergency bank funding facility usage surged to a record $108 billion, despite claims of the regional bank crisis being over.
3- Credit rejection rates are on the rise, particularly for auto loans (14.2%) and credit card limit increases (30.7%), while consumers seek more debt.
4- Global liquidity has dwindled by $1 trillion in the last 10 weeks, reaching pre-pandemic levels.
5- Existing home prices are set to surpass new home prices for the first time since 2005, signaling shifts in the real estate market.
6- The US corporate default rate doubled to ~2% since the Fed began raising rates in March 2022.
7- Student loan payments are resuming, impacting 45 million borrowers and consumer spending by approximately $100 billion per year.
8- Small banks face a record-high credit card loan default rate (7.5%) and must refinance $1.5 trillion in commercial real estate loans by 2025.
9- Revolving credit in the US hit a record $1.27 trillion in August, despite a declining personal savings rate (3.5%).
10- Excess savings have been depleting by $100 billion monthly since January 2022.
11- Debt-to-income ratios for US homebuyers reached 40%, driven by rising household debt and record credit card debt.
12- The average interest rate on a 30-year mortgage stands at 7.62%, impacting mortgage demand and home sales.
13- US deficit spending, with $1 trillion of bonds to be issued this quarter alone, is pushing bond prices down and rates up.
14- A record $7.6 trillion of US debt is set to mature in the next year, accounting for 31% of all outstanding government debt.
15- Monthly payments for new cars hit an all-time high of $733, with interest rates reaching 9.5%.
16- Bankruptcies in 2023 are surpassing 2022 levels, approaching a level not seen since 2010.
