What we drew from this source

The claims Via News extracted from this document. We point to the source; we don't replace it.

  • The reported U.S. proposal to end the conflict is one-sided and unfair

    60% confidence
  • The S&P 500 breaking below 6,500 suggests stocks want to go lower and may be headed towards a 10% correction at 6,280. This may be one of the most attractive entry points for new money since Liberation Day.

    60% confidence
  • The semiconductor sector had a less bad week than the S&P or the Nasdaq, closing well above the lows put in the week of 9 March. The indices all made new cycle lows today. The reversal, when it comes, will be violent, but there will be time to catch it when it happens. Patience is the name of this game.

    60% confidence
  • Talks with Tehran are going very well

    60% confidence
