According to the Benner cycle framework, 2026 shapes up as a pivotal year—characterized by prosperity, elevated price levels across assets, and a critical window for offloading equities and various asset classes. This projection aligns with the broader Financial Conditions Index and the current phase of the Macro Liquidity Cycle, suggesting market dynamics that demand strategic positioning. As financial conditions tighten and liquidity patterns shift, investors may need to reassess portfolio allocation. The convergence of these cycles points to 2026 as a year when timing entries and exits in both traditional and digital assets could prove decisive.
