Americans are increasingly anxious about their job security:

Consumers aged 18–34 now see roughly a 33% chance of losing their job in the next 5 years, the second-highest level ever recorded.

The 3-month moving average for this group has climbed by about 10 points over the past 3.5 years and is now higher than its 2008 peak.

For Americans aged 35–54, the 3-month average has reached around 30%, the highest level on record.

Even those aged 55+ are more pessimistic than ever, with their perceived likelihood of job loss now near 15%.

Meanwhile, 68% of Americans expect unemployment to rise over the next year, close to the highest share since 2008.

Job security is looking shaky at best.

Crypto’s liquidity problem:

Friday and Sunday nights consistently deliver outsized volatility.

Just now, Bitcoin plunged -$4,000 within minutes—no headlines, no catalysts, simply thin liquidity.

With leverage across markets at record highs, even a sudden burst of selling volume triggers a chain reaction: forced liquidations cascade, amplifying the move.

This dynamic underscores why the current crypto “bear market” is structural in nature. It reflects fragile liquidity conditions and excessive leverage, not a fundamental deterioration in the asset class itself.
