BREAKING: Japan’s economy contracted -1.8% in Q3 2025 on an annualized basis, its first decline in six quarters.

This represents a sharp reversal from the +2.3% expansion in the previous quarter.

The downturn was driven by private residential investment and exports, affected by new construction regulations and ongoing US tariffs.

Housing investment dropped -9.4%, the steepest decline since the -9.8% slump in Q2 2009.

Japan’s economy is losing momentum.

It's safe to say that crypto just experienced its "2025 bear market."

Since October 6th, in 42 days, crypto has erased -$1.2 trillion in market cap, or -28% of its entire value.

🛫@MarketMatrixAI

Small caps are being left behind:

Right now, only 25% of the S&P 500’s industry groups are trading above their 10-week moving average, the lowest level since the April sell-off.

That means just 6 of the 25 sub-industries are still above that threshold.

This share has fallen by roughly 60 points over the past few weeks.

As a result, about 44% of S&P 500 stocks are trading above their 50-day moving average, one of the lowest readings since April.

Market participation is deteriorating.

🚫 The internet worldwide went down due to a major outage at Cloudflare — a company that provides a significant part of the global internet infrastructure (CDN, DNS, traffic protection and routing).

Social networks, online games, and various services are massively unavailable — from Twitter and Spotify to OpenAI and AWS.

I guess crypto went down so much it took the internet down too 🤣

To all the crypto investors watching with nerves on edge:

Since 2017, Bitcoin has experienced:

1. More than 10 drops of -25% or deeper
2. Six drops of -50% or more
3. Three drops of -75% or more

Every decline of this size—or larger—throughout Bitcoin’s history has eventually been followed by new all-time highs.

Disruption is demanding, but tuning out the noise is what ultimately pays.

This is a “routine” crypto bear market, and we believe it’s already closer to the end than the beginning.

Volatility creates opportunity.

BREAKING: The Fear & Greed Index has dropped to 9, its lowest reading since April 11th.

This “Extreme Fear” level matches the sentiment last observed at the April 2025 market bottom.

Yet the S&P 500 is only -4% below its all-time high and remains +37% above the April low.

This is simply NOT the type of reading seen before a market crash.

BREAKING: Crypto has turned green, with Bitcoin approaching $94,000 just hours after dropping below $90,000 for the first time in seven months.

US Treasury issuances are skyrocketing:

The US government sold $693.5 billion in Treasuries last week through 9 auctions over 3 days.

Of that total, $549.1 billion came from T-Bills with maturities ranging from 4 to 52 weeks.

At the same time, $144.4 billion in notes and bonds were issued, including $48.5 billion in 10-year notes and $28.9 billion in 30-year bonds.

The total amount of outstanding T-Bills has now reached a record $6.59 trillion, doubling since 2020.

As a percentage of marketable Treasury securities, T-Bills have risen to ~22%, near the highest level since 2021.

US government borrowing is rising at a crisis pace.

The elephant in the room:

What happened to Europe?

While US and Chinese AI companies are announcing trillions of dollars in AI deals, the EU is rolling out a $1.1 billion AI plan to “ramp up AI.”

There is virtually no competition coming from the EU when it comes to AI startups.

How did Europe fall so far behind?
