Key Points
- Equities remain on downgrade watch; the market is entering a 'second phase' of sell-off, looking past inflation to recessionary consequences.
- Cross-asset moves (gold rallying, 2-year yields dropping, oil rallying) signal a shift in market focus towards recessionary fears.
- If the conflict lasts 4 more weeks, the S&P 500 could enter a bear market, and oil could reach $150/barrel due to a 10 million barrel/day supply hole, leading to 600 million barrels of lost global inventory in two months.
