Market depth in "futures parents" shows E-mini contracts moving with tight bid-ask spreads, favoring algorithmic trading strategies. With Treasury yields hovering near 4.1%, futures market liquidity remains strong, drawing in both speculative and risk management trades. Analysts caution about potential volatility if economic surprises disrupt this balance. "No constant reminders to marry and have kids. Marriage isn't for everyone.

Cases of whooping cough, or pertussis, for instance, used to be rare, but are now a monthly occurrence, she said. In 2024, pertussis sickened over 700 Floridians, up from just 85 cases in 2023. The state has also seen several measles cases over the past year, as the US battled its worst outbreak of the infection in decades, leading to three deaths, including two children in Texas. Volatility indexes linked to "futures parents" have dipped slightly, signaling reduced near-term risk expectations. This often encourages leverage increases among short-term speculators. However, analysts stress the importance of monitoring Fed commentary, which can rapidly shift futures market tone.
