Or, will the long-term effects of the Fed tightening finally show up with a lower than expected number, and incite the promise of Trump’s 100 basis point cut? Potential big moves either way. It sort of feels like a coin flip, which is not how I like to invest.
In addition, the VIX is way down. So Charlie’s vol toggle is spring-loaded right now. That’s with gunpowder on the streets of L.A. and Putin poised for payback in Ukraine.

H-Man, call me crazy but China (via REE control) has the upperhand. Our military has told Trump without samarium our guidance systems, nuclear rods, missiles and jets don’t work including stealth technology.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see China bail on the 30 year auction in order to tighten the noose.
