The Silk Risk Dashboard
- Interest Rates↗Yields are likely to drift modestly higher over 20 sessions as rate-vol stays elevated and the OLS prior points up +3.0%.
- Financial↗OLSExpect choppy, downward-biased equities as thinning breadth and real-yield pressure weigh, though mega-cap resilience limits the drawdown.
- Commodity→Grain and energy momentum is likely to partially mean-revert within the 4-day window (77% [n=1686]) but the broad PDBC prior remains up over 20 sessions.
- Currency→The dollar is likely to hold firm-to-slightly-softer over 20 sessions with the OLS UUP prior weakly down; treat as near-flat.
- Crypto↗The mechanical LONG block is expected to persist as correlation stays positive; unless a boundary falls inside 20 sessions the sign would need to turn negative to flip FLAT.

Risk
Geopolitical Risk
Diplomatic signaling in Ukraine and restrained proxy responses in the Middle East limit near-term transmission to energy and funding channels, though Indo-Pacific patrols sustain FX and risk-premia sensitivity; second-order cascades remain contained absent orthogonal market confirmation.
Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire holding amid sporadic proxy incidents
Russia-Ukraine ceasefire talks showing incremental progress
Chinese naval patrols near Philippines and Taiwan
Unexpected strike on Gulf energy infrastructure
Invalidate if: Continued adherence to informal red lines, verified de-escalation signals via backchannels, or mutual restraint by regional actors
