A Rush for the Exits Has Begun
Delivering World-Class Financial Research Since 1999
Volatility reigns… The week Greg Diamond says stocks will top… The latest about Iran and oil… Rushing for the exits in private equity… The next credit crisis may be starting… An opportunity, eventually…
First up today, in case you missed it…
This morning, Ten Stock Trader editor Greg Diamond went live in his 2026 Market Crash Summit. In this event, Greg revealed what could be the best way to take advantage of the extreme volatility we’re seeing in the market right now…
“The future is but a repetition of the past,” Greg said. He was quoting the man who, 118 years ago, developed a controversial trading strategy that has proved prescient and profitable time and time again.
Greg laid out the evidence for this strategy – one he has used with subscribers for years now. Viewers also heard why Greg believes history is again repeating itself right now… and not in a good kind of way. Well, at least not good for the unprepared…
The volatility we’re seeing from the war in Iran? Greg says it’s just the beginning of a wild period for stocks… He shared the exact week in the months ahead that he says the market will “top.”
But the good news? Greg also revealed a little-known way to leverage big market moves in stocks, oil, gold, and silver… He also shared his favorite trade for what lies ahead, one that he has traded before with a 100% win rate and an average gain of around 50%.
Be sure to check out the full event before it goes offline soon. If you missed it, click here to watch a replay now.
The latest about the war in Iran…
Oil-driven volatility continued today as the market reacted to reports from the Middle East.
First comes some “less bad” news for oil prices, in the short term at least. Representatives from the Group of Seven (“G7”) nations met for a second straight day. And while they again decided not to tap global strategic oil reserves, they did move the ball forward somewhat…
The G7, which includes the U.S., kicked the issue over to the International Energy Agency (“IEA”). The IEA is an energy-policy association of 31 nations that account for about 75% of global oil demand. The G7 asked it to assess the situation and needs, and the IEA members were to meet later in the day.
If they did, no word came out of the meetings before the markets closed for the day…
Either the G7 countries really want more information before acting, or the IEA is working out details, or everyone is waiting to see if using oil reserves will be necessary… or all of it.
It’s hard to know for sure, but signs point to global oil reserves helping stabilize supply and prices. At least the market is anticipating just that… or that the war actually may be close to finished, as President Donald Trump said was the case yesterday.
As we go to press, oil prices have fallen roughly 8% in the past 24 hours, with West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) trading around $87 per barrel and Brent crude, the international benchmark, around $91.
And energy stocks, which we alerted you yesterday could be due for a drawdown given extremely “overbought” conditions, were down more than 1%, the most of any major S&P 500 Index sector, and the U.S. benchmark index finished slightly lower on the day.
Folks still want their money out of private equity and credit…
We first covered this story in the February 19 Digest, when private-equity company Blue Owl Capital (OWL) was “permanently halting redemptions” from one of its private-credit funds. As we wrote at the time…
“Permanently halting redemptions” is code for not getting your cash back. And the “you” in this case is retail investors who hopped aboard the private-equity investing buzz via Blue Owl’s first private retail debt fund that launched in September 2025.
That trend has not gone away in the past few weeks. BlackRock (BLK), the world’s largest asset manager, similarly limited redemptions from its HPS Corporate Lending Fund after too many investors asked for their money back. The redemption requests came to 9% of shares.
BlackRock limited the redemptions to 5%, barely half that requested volume. And Blue Owl and now BlackRock are just two examples.
As Illiquid Insights shared on the social platform X yesterday, redemption requests have soared in the past six months for private equity and credit funds – or non-traded business development companies (“BDCs”)…
This jump in redemption requests shows a lot of fear in private credit and private equity right now.
What this means for the broader credit market…
The concerns about private credit are starting to trickle into the broader credit market.
High-yield credit spreads, the difference between the average yield on high-yield bonds and the yield of similar-duration “risk free” U.S. Treasurys, have risen steadily off their lows in January.
Remember, low spreads indicate complacency from investors. It means they see corporate bonds as so safe, they’ll own them with yields that are only slightly better than a risk-free Treasury bond. Today, at a level of 319 basis points, high-yield credit spreads hit a four-month high.
These spreads are still low historically, but they’re trending higher.
And the rush for the exits in private credit could soon flow over into the high-yield bond market. We checked in with our colleague and Stansberry’s Credit Opportunities editor Mike DiBiase this morning, and he wrote in a private note…
These private credit loans are considered risky loans. The entire high-yield credit market is based on confidence. Because private credit is so illiquid, when that confidence starts to evaporate, the entire foundation can collapse fast.
The high-yield spread is still below the 550-basis-point level that Mike believes will trigger a credit crisis. But based on the recent move in credit spreads, credit investors are starting to wake up to the deeper risks in the markets.
And the more pressure investors put on these private-credit funds, the more fear will trickle into the broader credit market.
At some point, credit markets will reach their breaking point. We’re not there – yet. But this is something we’ve got our eye on to be the catalyst for the next market leg lower.
The better news? There is opportunity ‘on the other side’…
As redemption requests surge, private-credit firms will either have to try and sell their illiquid assets or limit the withdrawals from investors. For now, they’ve done the latter. But the concerns are creating opportunities for folks with capital to put to work.
One legendary investor is getting started…
Saba Capital’s Boaz Weinstein has begun buying up stakes in certain private-credit funds at steep discounts. (Stansberry’s Investment Advisory subscribers can read more about Weinstein’s history in the August 2023 issue.)
Last week, Saba Capital launched a tender offer (together with Cox Capital Partners) to buy about 7% of Blue Owl’s OBDC II fund. But folks who want out won’t get their full money back… Saba’s offer represented a 35% discount to the value of the shares.
Here’s how Saba described the redemption issues in the press release…
OBDC II shareholders face increased liquidity risk, as evidenced by the fund’s terminated merger, which could have forced investors to take losses of approximately 20% and would have restricted shareholders from redeeming until the deal closed.
Essentially, Weinstein and Saba Capital are offering investors an “out” in a classic contrarian trade. Plenty of folks are asking for their money back out of these private-credit funds.
Saba will give them the exit they’re looking for. And it’s buying up stakes in the funds that will last beyond the noise. As Weinstein said in an interview with CNBC’s Inside Alts this week…
We’re long the stocks of these companies on the idea that, in case this is overdone, these are the guys that are going to be the winners at the end, when the smoke clears and their stocks may represent good value.
Similarly, as Mike DiBiase wrote back in an October special report for Credit Opportunities subscribers, he has been expecting a “fire sale” in the bond market. As pressure builds in the credit market, big investors can be forced to sell assets, too.
“[Corporate bond] prices can fall fast and hard,” Mike wrote.
When this happens, many investors will unload good investments just to get out of the sector. That can lead to solid assets trading at “bargain-bin prices.”
These are exactly the kind of investments Mike and his analyst Bill McGilton will be recommending to Credit Opportunitiessubscribers when the next credit crisis reaches a fever pitch. When everyone else is panicking, they’ll be alerting subscribers to buy.
In the meantime, we’ll keep tracking the private-equity story and watch for signs of growing weakness in the credit market.

Iran Conflict Reveals Trump’s Most Powerful Weapon
Editor’s Note: I have a message for you from Adam O’Dell at Money & Markets. I thought you might find it interesting – check it out here or read more below.

Iran Conflict Reveals Trump’s Most Powerful Weapon
Dear Reader,
The Iran conflict just exposed something most people missed.
America holds a monopoly over the single material every enemy nation needs to build advanced technology.
Semiconductors. AI chips. Military electronics.
Telecommunications. Drones.
None of it gets made without this material — and 80% of the world’s supply comes from one tiny North Carolina town.
For years, we’ve handed it over freely.
That’s about to end.
Trump is expected to ban all exports — cutting off China, Iran, and every hostile nation overnight.
The New Yorker warns: “Without it, the global economy might well unravel.”
When Trump pulls that trigger, foreign tech infrastructure collapses. And every major chipmaker is forced to rebuild on American soil.
Morgan Stanley estimates the reshoring boom could trigger a $10 trillion economic transformation.
A handful of U.S. companies are positioned to capture most of it.
To Your Profits,
Adam O’Dell

Oil’s Plunge Sends a Market Signal
Is the war in Iran nearing its end?… tracking the volatility in oil… what happens if oil prices remain near $100… how will all this impact the Fed… the three signals to watch now
As we were going to press yesterday afternoon, President Donald Trump suggested the fast-moving U.S.–Iran conflict could soon wind down – though his comments also made clear the military campaign may not be finished.
Speaking at a press conference on Monday, Trump said the U.S. is closing in on its objectives after more than a week of strikes coordinated with Israel:
We’re achieving major strides toward completing our military objective…
We could call it a tremendous success right now… or we could go further, and we’re going to go further.
The president struck a careful balance in his remarks, signaling that the war may end soon while also warning that the U.S. could escalate further if necessary.
At one point, Trump described the conflict as “very complete, pretty much.” But moments later, he hinted the mission could continue beyond the initial military strikes. After being asked why Pentagon officials say the conflict is just beginning, Trump replied that “it’s the beginning of building a new country.”
So, while the military phase of the conflict may be nearing its end, the geopolitical consequences could drag out much longer.
The market reaction to Trump’s comments Monday was immediate – and enormous
Wall Street had opened in full risk-off mode as investors grappled with the possibility of a longer war, a deeper oil shock and another inflation scare.
But sentiment flipped after Trump suggested the conflict could be nearing its end, helping spark a sharp reversal in stocks. By the close, the S&P 500 had rebounded from an intraday drop of as much as 1.5% to finish up 0.8%, while the Dow rose 239 points and the Nasdaq gained 1.4%.
The gains are holding as I write on Tuesday in the early afternoon. All three major indices are in the green and were recently trading at their intraday highs.
But the far bigger reaction yesterday and today has come from oil.
As I noted in yesterday’s Digest, at its high on Sunday, crude surged above $115 a barrel.
Yesterday, prices initially eased when G7 energy ministers signaled they were preparing to step in if necessary.
Let’s go to our hypergrowth expert Luke Lango in yesterday’s Innovation InvestorDaily Notes:
The G7 convened an emergency summit to discuss a coordinated SPR release – specifically, a 400-million-barrel release from their collective strategic reserves, a jaw-dropping 33% drawdown of the total 1.2 billion-barrel G7 stockpile (which would be the largest coordinated release ever).
Oil fell from $120 to $100.
The next leg lower in prices came later in the day after Trump’s comments – he even floated the possibility that the U.S. might take control of the Strait of Hormuz to secure shipping lanes.
By late Monday afternoon, crude had plunged dramatically from those weekend highs.
And as I write on Tuesday, West Texas Intermediate Crude (WTIC) has fallen to $84 while Brent Crude is down to $88.
Part of the decline reflects this morning’s meeting between G7 energy ministers. They confirmed they’re ready to release strategic oil reserves if necessary, though they have not yet triggered a final decision to open the tap.
Meanwhile, the International Energy Agency (IEA) will hold a meeting later today to discuss the release of oil stockpiles.
In short, some of the panic that gripped energy markets over the weekend is beginning to fade.
Stepping back, the speed of the recent price changes in oil underscores just how sensitive global markets remain to developments in the conflict – and why oil, more than any other asset, has become the real-time barometer of how serious investors believe the crisis could become.
And that’s exactly why what happens next in the oil market matters so much…

“The Next 1,000% Winners Are NOT Big-Name Tech Stocks”
To save his followers from losing all their money in the dot-com bust, Eric Fry rotated into non-tech stocks that went up 2,159%… 1,737%… and 11,237%. Today, he’s found non-tech AI Survivor stocks positioned to soar just as high when the AI Bubble pops in 2026. Watch his free video for a list of names and tickers.
What if this war doesn’t end soon
While markets are currently betting on de-escalation, a lot is riding on how quickly this conflict actually winds down.
If oil doesn’t keep falling – or worse, reverses and heads higher – the economic consequences could spread far beyond energy markets.
To see why, let’s go back to Luke from yesterday’s Daily Notes.
He ran the numbers on what sustained triple-digit oil could mean for inflation. His conclusion isn’t pretty:
By my analysis, if oil prices stay around $100 and flow through into higher commodity prices across the whole supply chain (measured by Bloomberg’s Commodity Index ex Gold staying around $80 to $90, versus sub-$70 just a few weeks ago), then we are looking at potential 4-5% inflation in the coming months.
That’s the nightmare scenario policymakers – and investors – desperately want to avoid.
Remember, the Federal Reserve has spent the past two years trying to push inflation back toward its 2% target. A sustained oil spike would reverse much of the progress we’ve made.
Energy is one of the fastest ways inflation spreads through the economy. Higher oil means higher gasoline prices, higher shipping costs, higher airline fares, and more expensive goods across the entire supply chain.
Plus, if inflation suddenly starts climbing again, potentially moving into the 4%-5% range, the Fed might be forced to raiserates. That’s not a scenario Wall Street is pricing for the next 12-24 months. So, if that becomes a real possibility, we’re likely in for a violent market reaction.
Back to Luke:
It is SO IMPORTANT that oil prices get back below $80.
Because sustained oil prices >$100 and inflation back at 5% in this environment would lead to multiple “bubbles” popping at once (AI spending would slow, housing market would break, PE market would break, consumer credit market would break, etc.).
That’s how you kill a bull.
So, with crude back to $84, investors are breathing easier. But from here, it’s follow-through that matters.
Target on the Fed
Heading into this latest flare-up in the Middle East, the market had been steadily pricing in the next phase of the Fed cycle – interest rate cuts.
But sustained triple-digit oil prices would dramatically complicate that outlook.
As I write, the CME Group’s FedWatch Tool shows that traders are betting on a July rate cut – the probability of at least a quarter-point reduction is roughly 59%.
These probabilities have shifted significantly. One month ago, traders put nearly 85% odds on at least a quarter-point cut in July.
Much of that shift reflects the spike in oil prices and renewed fears that inflation could reaccelerate if the conflict drags on.
Right now, the chief concern is “higher for longer.” In other words, if inflation reaccelerates due to sustained higher oil prices, the Fed may have very little choice but to keep monetary policy tighter for longer.
But as we noted earlier – and what Luke fears – oil at $100+ puts hikes on the table.
The key point here is that markets aren’t pricing that outcome right now.
Despite the geopolitical turmoil of the past week, investors are currently betting that the spike in oil will prove temporary – not the start of a new inflation cycle.
That’s why the sharp drop in crude prices over the past 48 hours has mattered so much.
If oil stabilizes somewhere in the $80–$90 range, the broader inflation outlook probably doesn’t change much. The Fed can stay on its current path, rate cuts later this year remain plausible, and the bull market likely stays intact.
But if crude suddenly reverses and pushes back toward $100, that’s when things could change quickly.
And the past few days have shown just how quickly sentiment in the oil market can swing.
Three signals investors must watch…
First, whether the conflict itself actually begins to cool…
It’s one thing for political leaders to talk about winding the war down. It’s another thing entirely to see the violence truly de-escalate – fewer strikes, calmer rhetoric, and a clear path toward ending the fighting.
If bombs keep falling and tensions remain high, markets will likely continue pricing in the risk of supply disruptions.
Second, oil prices themselves…
If crude keeps trending toward $80, the inflation scare fades quickly. The bull comes roaring back. If not, uncertainty lingers, and today’s market gains reverse.
Third, inflation data in the weeks ahead – but not with tomorrow’s CPI report, which won’t reflect this oil spike.
Bottom line: If higher energy costs begin bleeding into broader commodity prices and transportation costs, we’ll start seeing it show up in inflation reports – and the Fed will notice. For now, though, markets appear to be betting that the worst-case scenario won’t happen.
So, oil is falling… stocks are rebounding… and investors are cautiously returning to risk assets.
The next few weeks will determine whether that bet proves right.
We’ll keep you updated here in the Digest.
Have a good evening,
