🏛 Central Banks & Macro risk-off · 1–3 years
A what‑if from the future

What if Reserve managers rotate from USD into euros and gold?

Diversification flows favor euro-denominated assets and bullion over dollars, modestly lifting EUR and gold while widening the US term premium.

The butterfly cascade

How this trigger trickles across markets, left → right — the root shock, its first‑order moves, then the ripple effects. Drag any node; tap a market for its real price history.

Resolution timeline — how this probability is moving

Our model's odds (gold) over time vs the crowd's (Polymarket, blue), from the past toward the 1–3 years horizon. Each dot is a real macro event that nudged the probability — green pushed it up, red pushed it down. Tap a dot for the source. The gold path is an illustrative reconstruction anchored to today's estimate — real dated events, not a live re-estimate history.

What it would mean

If this plays out, it is a risk-off shock. Diversification flows favor euro-denominated assets and bullion over dollars, modestly lifting EUR and gold while widening the US term premium. The trigger decomposes into signed root‑shocks — US dollar (DXY) ▼ · Gold ▲ · Dollar/reserve confidence ▼ · Real yields ▲ — which propagate through our causal graph to the markets below.

If it happens — the markets it would move

Biggest moves first. Projected moves are cascade-model priors; hist A–B% = what comparable past events actually did (measured abnormal returns), and model prior · unmeasured marks markets with no analogue backing yet. Tap any market for its price history.

Historical precedent — what analogous events actually did

Across 13 analogous events (overlap‑weighted), as abnormal returns — market beta stripped, so it's the event's own effect, not the market backdrop. Shown at 20 days (persistent) and 5 days (immediate); ↺ fades = the two horizons disagree. Confidence = consistency × sample × significance.
