The case
U.S. labor militancy reached a generational peak in 2024, with 22 major work stoppages recorded by the Bureau of Labor Statistics—the highest count since 2000. Key drivers: catch-up wage demands after inflation, AI and automation anxiety, and successful template-setting strikes (UAW, SAG-AFTRA) that emboldened other bargaining units. 2025 brings massive contract expirations at Boeing, major logistics carriers, and public-sector unions in blue states. This perpetual market lets traders express views on whether labor's bargaining momentum sustains or fades. LONG if stoppages accelerate; SHORT if labor peace prevails and the 2024 wave proves cyclical rather than structural.
