Don’t dive in headfirst next week. Both markets have a ticking time bomb—take the weekend to plan your moves. Stocks: Friday (8/7) brings the non-farm payroll data, the only major event of the week. The strength or weakness of the data will directly influence rate cut expectations, and all risk assets will be at its mercy. Crypto: Early August sees a wave of large token unlocks (SUI, PROVE, etc.), flooding the supply side. Weak tokens will feel the pressure first. One is a macro variable that makes 'both sides shake,' and the other is a structural variable that 'crypto has to bear on its own.' The real danger is when the two collide. Which one worries you more?
