I used my ICAM background to connect the dots no one else dared to connect concerning AI (following the July 2026 OpenAI/HuggingFace incident) and it seems no humans or AI want the news to spread.

Traders often try to predict the next big market event, but opportunity comes from how markets react.
Midavest takes a different approach.
Instead of forecasting direction in stocks, rates, or currencies, we position for volatility and the inefficiencies created when markets reprice and benefit without relying on stocks rising every year.
Currently up +29% YTD return. The retail market is increasingly taking notice of the advantages it offers.
This week brings many catalysts. Some will matter, some won’t. The mistake is thinking you can already know which ones will move markets. I’d rather be positioned for the move than spend the week guessing it. Catalysts create volatility; positioning determines monetization.
