Could we be mid-way through a super-cycle in gold? Could we? Judging by the news we are seeing a slow decline in the PetroDollar, which is a fiat currency built on trust and the number of nuclear weapons. This military power is denominated in Dollars, which used to be tracked in gold. Regardless of what the Crypto fanboys call out, there is only one money, and...
The 10year is confused! will 2023 be bullish or bearish for earnings? We won't know until probably Q1 earnings, so until then markets will be volatile. If 10Yr heads to 5% you can bet earnings will continue to go higher, and S&P will become cheaper even at around 4000. if 10yr sells off and heads to 1.5% means the fed are cutting rates and earnings are dropping...

Commodities by themselves are not deflationary! They are dug out of the earth, and that both needs technology and people!

I am convinced the Fed cannot go beyond 4.25% interest rates, which they will hold for a year and then drop to 3.5% The ECB have yet to get to their terminal rate, probably around 1.5-2% and they start QT! Which means more tightening and support for EURO in the coming month....
Like it or not! There are not many places advertisers can go! And if you don't believe in digital advertising or if you don't believe our lives are affected by the digital world then you can go buy Mall/retailers stocks. but for the people who believe that more of our decisions and influence will involve in the digital space, then META is the only place to be!...
Fed will pivot in the next meeting! We are AT or very close to PEAK rate hikes, certain at the end of '22 all the increases are priced in. Earnings is a different questions, since 70% of earnings are coming from overseas earnings, could see a 10% drop! But EURUSD could be a beneficially as ECB has just started raising rates
2023 could be really ugly, especially for Europe. Considering EUROPE Is now in deep SH*T, with its entire energy policy dependent on cheap Russian gas, there is a high chance of spill over to the US. High inflation and high interest rates are a given until 2024, so the market has to price in teen PEs.....
NVIDIA is heading for another 85% drawdown... Pelosi dumped her entire holding in July on a loss? why? because she knew this was coming and more restrictions will be coming which will impact current growth for NVDA

Forget the market, look at your neighbours, go to the high street, count the number of people walking vs driving to the small shop! We are already in a recession in Europe, UK and the US, it's just the data is not showing it yet. When it's down....then watch out below This will be at the same time when the Fed (having no choice) but to destroy the bizarre...
The Fed tried its best to save the market, but now it cant save the markets again! and under the OLD Fed Regime the Technicals are screaming BUY THE DIP! and this is what you hear from CNBC guests who have been used to pump the market every time.

the VIX is building up to something, we just don't know what it is yet, something big will happen at the end of the year. Either we get an explosion in the VIX as the recession is finally here and there are clear signs of growth falling off the cliff, or there is an explosion in the markets (from around 3500) as the market starts to price in a soft...
Bitcoin was born in QE1, went to the moon in QE4 and will die in QT. In 2018 when the Fed signalled the end of easy money and didn't even start shrinking its balance sheet , Bitcoin sold off to nearly 85%. It rallied hard at the start of 2019 when the Fed did an about-turn and stopped shrinking the balance sheet , cut rates and starts expanding again. It went to...
FAANGS are dead stocks, they are going into a dull phase, especially Netflix... With Inflation staying high for the next 3 years meaning now QE, no rate cut, no easing of conditions we can see Netflix going sideways. It's still in a secular bull market because of the way we consume media means we can never go back to cable TV! Everything has to be on-demand we...
Are we in a bear market, or should we buy the dip? One thing is for sure, the FED IS PERMANENTLY OUT OF THE MARKET. Inflation is here to stay! Unless it is proven otherwise, commodity companies cannot add capacity (even if they wanted to) like you can in the cloud!
