SIGNAL SCAN — March 11, 2026

TLT: $85-87 (-4-1%)

PAXG shorts $15.2M underwater -$480K as gold rallies through resistance

IMPLICATION
Tactical long crypto/commodities vs bonds as stagflation regime favors hard assets over duration. Energy premium creates tactical short opportunity if geopolitical tensions ease while maintaining inflation hedge exposure.

MARKET WRAP — Mar 11, 2026

Markets retreated across risk assets as stagflation concerns intensified, with the VIX climbing to 24.23 while both equities and crypto sold off in tandem. The dollar's strength near 99.25 pressured commodities including oil, reflecting growing unease about persistent inflation amid slowing growth. Flight-to-quality flows into bonds provided little relief as TLT remained subdued.
