Something big is changing in the market, and while price is still holding near all-time highs, there are clear signs beneath the surface that conditions are shifting. We’re starting to see rotations that typically show up late in market cycles, with money flowing into materials and energy while consumer discretionary lags. At the same time, volatility is compressing across major indexes, creating one of the tightest Bollinger Band setups we’ve seen in years. Markets move through periods of contraction and expansion, and when things get this tight, it usually means a larger move is coming.

From an intermarket perspective, there’s a lot developing. Copper continues to push higher while oil struggles to keep pace, a divergence that has historically mattered. The dollar is also sitting near the bottom of a long-term channel, and seasonal tendencies suggest it may be trying to find a floor. If the dollar starts strengthening from here, that could add pressure to equities, especially with yields already elevated. These relationships don’t give exact timing, but they do help frame risk when multiple pieces begin lining up.

We’re also seeing signs of exhaustion in key growth areas like semiconductors, where momentum is slowing and bearish divergences are starting to form. These stocks tend to experience meaningful pullbacks every year, and given their weight in the indexes, any weakness there can ripple through the broader market. Add in record moves across silver, extreme volatility readings, and unusually stretched positioning, and it’s clear that speculation is elevated while risk is quietly building.

On top of that, the structure of the market itself continues to evolve. With more zero-DTE options and new expirations rolling out across major names, price is becoming increasingly driven by short-term flows and expected moves. That makes levels more important than ever. Gamma positioning, implied ranges, and volatility bands now play a major role in how far price can travel in either direction, and we’re approaching areas where the reward-to-risk profile starts to skew.

This doesn’t mean the market has to crash tomorrow. It simply means adaptability matters more than stubbornness right now. Preparation isn’t about predicting disaster, it’s about recognizing when conditions are changing and adjusting before volatility forces your hand. In this video, we break down the rotations, intermarket signals, volatility compression, key expected move levels, and what to watch as we head into a busy week with major data and the Fed on deck.

If you’re trading or investing in this environment, understanding where risk is priced and how structure is shifting can make all the difference.
