    60% confidence
  • The conflict in Iran could keep gas prices high for at least the next several months

    60% confidence
  • Following April economic data, it seems unlikely the Fed will be able to cut interest rates this year or possibly next year

    60% confidence

    60% confidence
  • The market does not expect the Fed to cut rates this year (2026) or in 2027

    60% confidence
  • When bond yields are lower, future cash flows in DCF models are higher, leading to higher stock valuations; when yields are higher, future cash flows are lower

    60% confidence
