Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Macro headwinds (CPI, rate trajectory, geopolitical risk) heighten risk aversion, pressuring capital-intensive firms. IREN’s crypto proxy narrative still dominates despite the pivot, suggesting near-term downside risk if sentiment lags. Historical analogs show sentiment mispricing can persist until fundamentals reprice, creating volatility.
