U.S. credit spreads just hit their tightest levels since 1998. That's a pretty wild signal when you think about it—we're talking about a 27-year low.
When credit spreads compress like this, it typically suggests investors are pricing in either rock-solid economic confidence or underestimating tail risks. Either way, it's worth monitoring for anyone exposed to traditional markets. The crypto space tends to react when these macro indicators swing hard, so keep an eye on how this plays out.

Lowest in 27 years? Now it's time to worry, or maybe we're just being too optimistic.

27-year low, it looks confident, but I always feel this is the market's last silence before lying
History repeats itself, we've seen this play many times before. The truly smart people should now be quietly reciting survival rules in the corner

27-year low? That’s quite optimistic, feels a bit too good to be true.

Lowest in 27 years... Is this really different this time, or is it just another crash?
