# Alerts Double, Feeds Disagree

## Executive Summary

DEWS ALERT names jumped four to eight overnight, driven by cross-source divergence, not insolvency; apxUSD's peg healed to 953 bps even as its stress light flipped on.

## Extended

DEWS doubled its ALERT roster overnight, from four names to eight. ALUSD, apxUSD, and AZND all dropped out of WATCH, leaving a band table of 130 CALM, 100 WATCH, and 8 ALERT against yesterday's 144, 92, and 4. The common thread is not insolvency but disagreement: cross-source divergence scored a maximum 100 on nearly every name that moved.

apxUSD is the tell. Its peg has been healing since June's STRC drawdown, tightening from 1,184 to 953 basis points below a dollar, yet DEWS flipped it to ALERT anyway on price confidence and that same divergence. A recovering peg tripping a stress light is a reminder that the feeds moved, not the reserves. PSI holds at 93.3, its 42nd straight BEDROCK day, unbothered by the noise.

The yield tape carries the same ambiguity: USDT flashed 12.1% APY against a 1.48% seven-day average, USDC 12.8%, both tagged opportunity-evidence-missing, a reward nobody can source. pmUSD stayed critical, widening to 5,237 basis points off peg at $0.476. If USDT's best rate falls back near 1.8% next session, the anomaly is cooling; if the ALERT band pushes past eight, the divergence is signal, not static.
