Oil, yields, and FOMC pivot signal bearish equities
The author argues that oil above $100, 10-year Treasury yields over 5%, and an FOMC shift from rate cuts to rate hikes form a bearish macro setup. The causal mechanism is that higher energy costs and borrowing costs pressure equities while a hiking pivot historically precedes poor market outcomes. The stated catalyst is the FOMC pivot itself, with no explicit time horizon given. Main risk is that markets may already have priced in these conditions.
