A coincidence is not purely clock-triggered. It is often query-triggered or pattern-triggered: mouse + keyboard, bond tick + macro signal, agent drift + rule update, review finding + future error suppression.

Markets already produce dense event streams, and bonds are relationship-heavy: rates, credit spreads, duration, macro events, liquidity, issuer risk, curve movement.
