Near-term: Leans LOWER conviction 45% · 2110 up vs 6289 down scenarios
S&P 500 leans lower near-term — high conviction. Of the 8,399 mapped scenarios that move S&P 500, 2,110 push it up and 6,289 push it down, and weighting each by its probability, size and how soon it bites, the book skews lower. The lead driver pushing S&P 500 lower is RSF siege of el-Fasher triggers Darfur famine (event odds not yet verified; ~1.9% estimated impact on S&P 500 if it occurs). This week our model already has S&P 500 biased higher. Regime backdrop: The week the hike came back.
What flips the down-lean: Red Sea reopens, freight and oil premia unwind (event odds not yet verified).
Probabilistic, scenario-weighted read from the library + the current regime. A lean is a tilt in the odds, not a promise. Informational, not investment advice.

Near-term read — probability, range, evidence

7-day readSlightly higher57.7% higherForecast swing band: -2.3% to +0.9%
15-day readLeans higher61.1% higherForecast swing band: -3.0% to +1.2%
30-day readStrongly higher66.8% higherForecast swing band: -4.2% to +2.0%

S&P 500 slightly higher over the next 7 days: 57.7% chance of a higher close after combining history, scenarios and current evidence.

The forecast swing band is -2.3% to +0.9% over 7 days. This is the model's comparable-history zone, not a price target. The downside band is wider, so the read is cautious even when the headline probability is close to balanced.

The history anchor uses 1,008 comparable 7-day windows; the base rate was 59.5% higher before today’s factors were applied. Status: live tracking started; not enough resolved calls yet.

Today’s tilt came mainly from the scenario graph, macro, rates and policy. Each forecast is saved and later scored, so this number will earn calibration over time instead of pretending certainty today.
