Bitcoin has a market cap of $1.5TN. In the big picture that's chump change. Anyway in the growing crypto space in derivativeland if there are significant pools of shorts....   Well, we all know what happens then.

As accidents go the short covering rally in long dated Treasuries is a fun one. 

[That Sinking Feeling 7/25/24]

The end of the world? Talking about the liquidity world which is the topic here then hell, the Fed isn't even printing yet. They haven't even paused QT yet. There is no way we let asset bubbles deflate if China doesn't. Period.

Well I started to run from a shower the other day and realized I can't run anymore.  I'm thinking Musk might go into Crypto. If Jerry and the boys won't inflate things then he will. Obviously Tesla is the biggest con of all history.

It might be hard to get the mind around but this inflation of assets is, according to plan, just getting started. How else can we get to Mars? When hasn't this monetary mania gone according to plan. Hard to bet against it.

The current low took out yesterday's low by one whole point. They may pop it back up here, but that usually means they'll break it by more later. It's how the pro bros signal each other. 

I'm thinking AI using data on every millisecond will pretty much be able to keep the averages rising forever.

You don't see that too often. On my feed anyway.  A gap on the ES 1 minute chart between 8:29 an 8:30.  4 points or so. Probably an   error.

At what time are Treasury auctions trades executed?  Ideally rates rise into auction and fall after. If your a dealer that is and it often works that way but I have no scorecard.

[My Work Says Higher for Longer 5/20/24]

Well some problem is needed so the Fed can start printing, expanding its balance sheet, again. The world is begging for more money.  It will get it sooner or later. Make that sooner.

The Feds balance sheet is a polite fiction. Believing in balance sheets is so yesterday. So Enlightenment. That's over.

That was Kitty Carlisle but she was on To Tell the Truth.  It was Dorothy Kilgallen who was on What's My Line.

Tomorrow we can cover Gisele MacKenzie and Anna Maria Alberghetti.  Unless you want to delve into Kilgallen's odd link in Kennedy assassination theories.
