The plumbing has a fat tail
The board reads STRAIN. VIX at 16, credit spreads near their tightest on record. The pipes and the price screens disagree — and extreme value theory says the disagreement has no ceiling.

This fallback stays inside the source summary; the mental model below explains the mechanism without adding a market claim.
01 / COMPARISON
What changed
This source record does not publish a like-for-like prior observation, so MyQuant treats it as a cross-sectional snapshot and does not infer a trend.
02 / MECHANISM
Why this matters
evidence-backed desk finding. In a funding record, separating plumbing, market prices, and dated events prevents one headline from standing in for the whole system; the result remains context for investigation, not a market forecast.
03 / NEXT TEST
What to check next
Compare the next published letter’s composite, regime, plumbing-versus-price gap, dated reserve contribution, and event reading. A changed combination—not one isolated number—would alter this interpretation.
04 / BOUNDARY
