Medium-term scores range from -3 to +3. Row color reflects the Combined score. Mini-bars show individual force pressure on one shared scale; the adjacent number is the force count.

How pressure is calculated

Force pressure is a signed evidence-strength measure, not a probability or expected return. Event impact = direction x event strength x exposure relevance x mechanism share. Weighted pressure = event impact x factor importance x 100. Exposure relevance combines 50% affected-symbol coverage, 30% causal directness, and 20% transmission strength. Green bars are tailwinds, red bars are headwinds, and every mini-bar uses the same scale across all assets. Exact inputs are available inside each asset's Market-force scorecard.

Market context

The equal-weight medium-term Market Lens is favorable at 0.5, with 7 positive, 3 neutral, and 1 negative asset classes. Developed Pacific Equities, Energy, and US Equities rank among the leading opportunities, while China & Hong Kong Equities is the most cautious result. Crypto shows the clearest Technical versus News & Events conflict, with cautious technical conditions offset by favorable external evidence. Treasury long-end liquidity support is the broadest retained positive cross-asset force, while Fed inflation concerns and Middle East energy-supply risk remain important offsets.

Methodology and disclosures Scoring, timestamps, and analytical limitations i

Medium-term opportunity: Technical/Pricing receives a 60% weight and News & Events receives a 40% weight when both branches are usable. Technical, News, and Combined scores range from -3 to +3 and are not expected returns.

Single-day lens: Daily direction combines 60% technical price/breadth direction and 40% fresh-event direction. Daily opportunity combines 60% risk-adjusted technical opportunity and 40% fresh-event direction. Daily risk combines 60% technical move/volatility risk and 40% event disruption risk. Unavailable branches are never treated as zero.

Pressure: A signed measure of verified evidence strength. Event impact combines direction, event strength, exposure relevance, and any mechanism allocation. Weighted pressure multiplies event impact by the asset's fixed factor importance and by 100. It is not a probability or expected return.

Divergence: The absolute difference between the Technical and News opportunity scores. Daily/medium-term divergence separately identifies whether the single-day market action confirms or challenges the broader regime.
