Subject: SPR Market Update: Daily Stabilization Continues While Weekly Upside Becomes Increasingly Limited

Dear SPR Premium Subscribers,

Following Tuesday's announcement by President Trump and Treasury Secretary Bessent that an agreement between the United States and Iran regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz was imminent, market sentiment shifted sharply, triggering a strong rally driven by aggressive buying pressure.

However, since then, no tangible progress has been officially confirmed. As time has passed without a concrete agreement, the market has gradually entered a rebalancing process, with buying and selling pressure normalizing after Tuesday's distorted surge. As a result, price action has transitioned into a period of volatile consolidation with a modest downward bias.

Although officials continue to state that negotiations are progressing positively, the situation remains similar to previous rounds of negotiations, where optimistic announcements were followed by prolonged delays without meaningful results.

As this remains one of the market's most significant external variables, future developments could once again trigger rapid shifts in investor sentiment and substantial market volatility.

Based on the price action observed so far, our daily outlook remains largely unchanged. We expect the market to continue its current supply-and-demand stabilization process through today (Friday) and into Monday, with additional consolidation and modest downside fluctuations.

Provided no major external developments emerge, we expect buying momentum to gradually recover beginning around Monday or Tuesday next week, allowing the daily trend to attempt another upward move that could extend into the latter part of the week.


The more important consideration now, however, is the weekly trend.

In last week's weekly market outlook, we noted that the market had a high probability of maintaining a gradual recovery through mid-to-late August, with the potential to temporarily re-enter the Bullish Zone.

However, this week's rally advanced much more rapidly than originally anticipated. Our projected upper target for the expected weekly recovery was approximately 7,781 points, yet the market has already reached approximately 7,811 points during this week.

As a result, while the broader weekly rebound remains intact, the remaining upside potential now appears significantly more limited than previously expected.

Even if additional gains occur, they are likely to be temporary rather than the beginning of a sustained bullish advance. Over the next one to two weeks, we expect the market to remain within an upper trading range, maintaining a constructive but increasingly limited upward bias.

As the market moves into mid-to-late August, however, upward momentum is expected to gradually weaken, increasing the probability of another downside reversal.

At that stage, we believe the weekly trend is likely to turn lower from within the Bearish Zone, potentially marking the beginning of a much stronger downside phase than the market has experienced in recent weeks.

For this reason, we believe investors should begin preparing their strategies with greater emphasis on risk management rather than expecting substantial additional upside from current levels.

By the end of next week, we expect to have significantly greater clarity regarding whether this outlook is unfolding as anticipated, and we will provide a further update accordingly.

If you have any questions regarding our analysis, please feel free to contact us at any time.
