Because the indicator has historically led the S&P 500 by roughly six months, the shift is being closely watched as a potential warning of increased downside risk for U.S. equities if liquidity continues to deteriorate.

IRANIAN OP-ED: LEBANON-ISRAEL FRAMEWORK RISKS CIVIL WAR, FAVORS ISRAEL
The commentary argues that the U.S.-brokered Lebanon-Israel framework prioritizes Israel’s security while undermining Lebanon’s sovereignty by linking Israeli withdrawal to Hezbollah’s disarmament. It contends the agreement could weaken Hezbollah, increase U.S. influence, pave the way for normalization with Israel, and heighten the risk of internal conflict or civil war in Lebanon.
