Proflex Market Update - Wk 30
All Eyes on Earnings | Fed Signals Awaited | Bitcoin Holds Steady
Markets made new all-time highs last week, with the S&P 500 briefly pushing above 6,320. But the tone remains undecided—chop, not conviction. With earnings season heating up and multiple macro catalysts on deck, the next two weeks will likely dictate the rest-of-year trajectory.
 While monetary signals remain supportive—rising M2, softening global policy, and still-positive ETF flows into hard assets—equity valuations now rest on fragile foundations. The rally now hinges on two parallel pivots:
Meanwhile, geopolitical overhangs remain. Trump’s aggressive August 1 tariff deadline is fast approaching. And over the weekend, Japan’s ruling coalition lost majority control, leading to volatility in JGB yields and Yen carry trades—adding a new global tail risk to already jittery FX markets. Insights from the Proflex Macro Call“All-Time Highs Are the Beginning, Not the End.” “Fear of heights in markets is irrational—liquidity, not gravity, drives the next leg.” — Proflex Macro Discussion This time is no different. With global M2 rising and cross-asset highs in stocks, gold, and Bitcoin, the macro setup suggests it’s liquidity—not valuations—fueling the rally. Key Drivers This Week💻 Tech Earnings Hold the Key to S&P’s Premium The AI narrative has carried the S&P to stretched valuations (~22x forward), but now the real test begins: This week:
The top 10 tech names now account for ~35% of the S&P’s market cap. That means a single earnings miss can derail the index—even if fundamentals elsewhere stay intact.
“This is a belief test. AI can’t just deliver growth. It must deliver upside above expectations.” 🧭 Fed Meeting – The Global Policy Chessboard Tightens The upcoming FOMC meeting (July 29–30) is arguably more important than any single data point. Why? The Fed is now an outlier.
Yet U.S. futures are still pricing no cut in July, despite growing pressure from the Trump camp to ease and rising political incentives ahead of the election cycle. Free Weekly Insights
