    Risks
    • Crowded positioning may already reflect the move
    • Counter-catalyst could neutralize the thesis before window closes
    • Fed officials or competing data may reframe the print
    Invalidation
    • TAIEX closes below pre-catalyst level on rising volume
    • Catalyst narrative is officially walked back or contradicted
    • Cross-asset confirmation (rates / FX / vol) reverses direction
    Monitor
    • TAIEX price vs. pre-event level
    • TAIEX volume vs. 20-day average
    • 2Y/10Y Treasury yield direction
