Regime reasoning

Fact: Realised volatility on NAS100 sits in the 22nd percentile of the last twelve months, and the 5-day range is the narrowest since March.
Interpretation: Compression before a scheduled catalyst usually reflects positioning being reduced, not conviction.
Scenario: An expansion is more likely than continued compression once CPI lands, in either direction.
Uncertainty: Compression can persist for days. Volatility percentile is descriptive, not predictive, and says nothing about direction.
