Near-term: Leans LOWER conviction 54% · 1460 up vs 5985 down scenarios

High-yield credit leans lower near-term — high conviction. Of the 7,445 mapped scenarios that move High-yield credit, 1,460 push it up and 5,985 push it down, and weighting each by its probability, size and how soon it bites, the book skews lower. The lead driver pushing High-yield credit lower is Syndicator bridge-loan implosion (43% likely, ~1.4% on High-yield credit). Regime backdrop: Hawkish Fed (3.50–3.75%, dot-plot leans to a HIKE), firm dollar, active US–Iran/Hormuz conflict, AI-led equity pullback.

What flips the down-lean: Vietnam FTSE EM go-live triggers $6bn+ passive inflow wave (78% likely).

Probabilistic, scenario-weighted read from the library + the current regime — informational, not investment advice. A lean is a tilt in the odds, not a promise.
