Market's split right down the middle on what 2026 holds.

Fundamental analysts are bullish as hell. Their thesis? The new Fed chair will play ball with the administration's agenda—rate cuts incoming, accommodative stance locked in. Easy money environment means risk assets pump. Simple math.

But technical traders aren't buying it. They're seeing momentum fade hard. Price action screams distribution—smart money quietly rotating out while retail chases green candles. Chart structure looking sketchy at best.

So who's got it right? The macro guys betting on policy tailwinds, or the chart readers watching capital flow in real-time?

Both camps have conviction. Both can't be right. 2026 will settle this debate the hard way.

The fundamentals crowd just likes to boast... When it really comes to 2026, how to cut the leeks will still depend on the market sentiment. --- Retail investors are still chasing green, while large investors have already left. Charts don't lie about this. --- Whether policy dividends are reliable or not, first ask how capital flows are indicating it. --- Both sides are stubbornly fighting, but everyone already knows how the market will finally move. --- Wait, why is no one mentioning the risk premium in this logic? --- The hawkish rate cut joke—does anyone actually believe it? Let's see how long they can hold on until . --- Talking about 2026 is too far ahead now. Let’s see how Q1 goes before discussing that. --- "Smart money is distributing," in simple terms, it means you haven't bought in yet. --- Is it safe to buy based on fundamentals? Technicals are all singing a different tune. --- When two factions start fighting, the market usually goes somewhere else—that's just how frustrating it is.

Why are those fundamental guys always so optimistic? Talking about rate cuts and liquidity like it's all real... But when I look at the candlestick patterns, it's actually a bit scary—the distribution is so obvious.

Hmm... so fundamentally, rate cuts look promising, but technically, it looks bearish with selling pressure. That's a bit awkward, huh.

The macro camp and the technical camp are tied—doesn't that make for the most normal market? --- Wait, if the rate cuts really come, can my short positions survive until 2026? --- Hey, those who went long earlier should be getting nervous now. Isn't the distribution so obvious? --- To put it simply, whoever exits first wins. Forget fundamentals or charts—liquidity is king. --- This kind of stalemate is the most dangerous. Once a side is chosen, it's either an endless drop or endless rise. --- Technical analysts must be going all-in on shorts now—takes real guts. --- Wait, will this new Fed chair really cooperate? I kind of doubt it. --- Retail investors always chase limit-ups, institutions already left—this was clear as early as last year. --- If you can just survive until 2026, that's good enough—don't overthink it. --- Hedge funds are already reallocating. Those who can spot the signs may have made money early.
