Real question is: WHEN will the US 10 yr gap be closed? Before XMas or thereafter? o_Oo_Oo_O

Market pricing for both start of rate cuts and totality of cuts in 2024 is excessive Recent accommodation priced into rates is inconsistent with policy stance to get inflation back to target Inflation will rebound in 1H 2024 and ECB should only reassess policy outlook after this period Wage...

On the other hand without that Schmock´s communication errors, we wouldn´t have this beautiful vola! :D:D:D

"We aren't really talking about rate cuts right now. We're very focused on the question in front of us, which is-- as Chair Powell said -- the question is: Have we gotten monetary policy to a sufficiently restrictive stance to ensure that inflation comes back down to 2%. That's the question in...

You bet your house on that. 100% correct.

You are quoting headline inflation and not core inflation. Core inflation is running at 4%. It´s ridiculous beyond belief that a rate cut discussion is being started NOW, while the Bank of England and ECB have just decided to leave interest rates where they are FOR LONGER. Guess why? It´s called...

https://www.forexlive.com/centralbank/big-jump-in-the-atlanta-fed-gdpnow-to-26-from-12-last-20231214/ The Atlanta Fed GDPNow model estimates a significant increase in Q4 growth to 2.6% from 1.2%. Recent data suggests higher consumer spending and government expenditures, while private investment...

Just for the record: CORE INFLATION released only 2 days ago showed a sloppy 4%. And the FED chief clown talks with his colleagues about "rate cuts". :D:sneaky: 100% election motivated. The old man in the White House needs a helping hand. And will lose the elections anyway.

I said I want to come back in March 2024- and not mid December 2023! Please note: core inflation was just reported Tuesday at a sloppy 4%. And uncle Powell has AGAIN mis-communicated FED´s intentions. Is Bill Ackmann paying him under the table "advisory fees"? Anyway, taking 50% of positions...

Sweet. Alex Gerko´s XTX Markets made also ship load of $. Bloomberg article: https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/quant-trader-doubles-fortune-to-11-billion-as-xtx-profit-surges-1.1961606

The bond market’s bold bet on US interest-rate cuts is set for its biggest test yet. After loading up on wagers that the Federal Reserve will lower rates by more than 100 basis points in 2024, investors are waiting on tenterhooks to hear Chair Jerome Powell speak Wednesday and see central-bank...

https://www.forexlive.com/news/japan-q3-gdp-07-qq-preliminary-was-05-prior-12-20231207/ Forget about Bank of Japan ending negative interest rates. With that GDP figure, you better hide and run and add a bit more printing press money....

Sixt SE is phasing out Tesla Inc. electric cars from its fleet after the manufacturer’s heavy price cuts hurt residual values at Europe’s biggest car-rental company. Higher repair costs for electric cars compared to combustion vehicles are compounding the issues with lower resale values, Sixt...

See unfilled GBP Futures gaps above. This makes GBP Futures short positions a POTENTIAL trade opportunity. Will report back when gaps filled. See ya!:D

And again some Mini-gaps filled in GBP Futures - which you actually cannot believe THAT IT WILL HAPPEN. Especially today, when GBP/USD had some crazy fights about some price points. Go figure: who has the FLOW POWER in SPOT FX and FX futures to run price action into GAP FILLING MODE...

Most of the "mini gaps" above closed. Now, other mini gaps opened, should be filled at some point as well. You get the picture. Anyway, now long spot USD/JPY, short JPY futures.

Next in my "UNFILLED GAP PERVERSION" series: Japanese Yen Futures. Lousy 7 unfilled mini-gaps. Consequentially, I am short JPY futures/ long spot USD/JPY as of end of business day or in professional parlance (long MOC - market on close). Happy hunting! As usual: this is not investment...

All mini-gaps filled....Perversion has an end.....! :rolleyes:
