Opening read
A flat tape: SPY is up 0.1% and QQQ down 0.09% at 8:15 AM ET, with the 10-year yield at 5.24%.
Blockhaven's Transition Macro read (Risk Appetite near neutral, Liquidity below neutral, computed Sunday, before Monday's session) is context rather than a test this morning.
Overnight / pre-market tape
At 8:15 AM ET, SPY is up 0.1% and QQQ is down 0.09% versus the prior close. The 10-year Treasury yield rose 2 bp to 5.24% on Friday, the VIX closed Friday at 14.84, and Bitcoin trades at $83,281 (+0.3% over 24 hours).
Blockhaven Macro
Regime read: Transition
Blockhaven's read, computed Sunday, Oct 11, 8:20 PM ET, is Transition. Risk Appetite 52 (inside its neutral band, up 1 over 5 snapshots); Liquidity 30 (below its neutral band, down 2 over 5 snapshots); Crypto 47 (inside its neutral band, down 17 over 5 snapshots). Its Market Stress and Vol Event Risk engines are elevated.
Neither score gives a clear directional signal, so the individual readings matter more than the label. The regime read, Risk Appetite, Crypto and the three engines (Market Stress, Upside Expansion and Vol Event Risk) are only partly verified against public data, so treat them as provisional.
