Market reaction during earnings season, noted point by point

Don't use last week's rate-cut story to explain today's market.

To see who's leading and who's lagging by sector, look at the gains and losses—not the stories.

Dow 51,655 (5-day +0.93%, Yahoo)
Nasdaq 27,366 (5-day +0.64%, Yahoo)
VIX 14.84 (5-day -4.38%)

Assessment: The 10-year yield is at 5.24%, down -1.26% over 5 days. Falling rates give risk assets a window, but what matters is whether it lasts—not what happens in a single daily candle.

Capital flows: BTC 83035 (+0.80%). ETH +1.17% is outperforming BTC +0.80%, with the exchange rate at 0.0302. This looks like risk appetite spilling over—not BTC acting alone.

On the crypto side, I'm watching just one thing: can BTC close above the 24h high of 83173? If it can't, talk of it following the rally is just hot air.

My positioning: I only buy pullbacks; I don't chase breakouts. If the structure holds, I can keep a core position. Any additions have to wait for a pullback level.

When memes aren't outperforming BTC, are you still holding them?

Useful takeaway: Around mainnet upgrades, gas and bridge failures show up before price narratives do.
Idea: As the 10-year yield rises, valuation narratives take a back seat; for spot, stick to pullback levels.

For context: People are discussing “"bitcoin OR stock market OR US stocks" - Google News.” I treat it only as background; my conclusions are still based on the figures in the main text.

Just my personal view; figures are from the sources listed in the main text. This is not a trading instruction.
