CAPITAL CONDITION
The index is calm. The machine rooms are under pressure.
Dollar liquidity reads 51/100 with deteriorating momentum and a 11.6% cash buffer. The S&P 500 stands -1.6% from its high, Nasdaq 100 -7.8%, and semiconductors -22.7%. Capital still moves, but mission budgets, route access, logistics, and expansion now reward directorates that can hold the thinner channels.
