From one day ago. Will we hold up for another year for 24-25

Good to see the sector hold up pretty well. Usually we receive a serious beating after a day like Friday.

So, the hedge funds went tits short why? They thought rates were going much higher and drag the dollar along?

Interesting that the dollar is down with rates up, wondering if the Fed may have to come in and support the bond market.

As of Tuesday October 10th, hedge funds and CTAs moved to ~$5.2 billion net notional short position in #gold futures.

🧐This short position has cost hedge funds nearly $200,000,000 in mark-to-market losses in just the last 3 trading sessions.

They’ve got the DOW futures up a hundred points or so, but I’m seeing cracks in the effort as some of the mega cap names are down premarket, not a lot but NVDA, TSLA, AAPL to name a few.

They’re taking pm’s down just under 1% at this point, we’ll see how that goes throughout the day, but not unexpected.

The dollar is down a little but the 10 yr. is up 6 bips. Oil is flat, but lo and behold Bitcoin is up 2.25% because Ferarri is now taking it for cars. Good luck to them.

No nukes over the weekend and Israel hasn’t gone into level Gaza just yet. So everything must be OK 🙂

I suppose they can put them in tent cities in the desert somewhere.

Unfortunately, this is a disaster for everyone involved.

I will say this, I don’t have much redeeming value either…

Good Grief!  You are lucky to be alive.  Carbon Monoxide poisoning is the usual cause.  Also the cause of the long headache.  It takes a long time to clear out of the body.  Brain Damage?  Maybe, but you are still with us.

Tunnel air also affects the performance of the diesel engines when they cannot get enough oxygen.  The Rio Grande, because they had so many tunnels thru the mountains in their system, ordered special locomotives.  They were called ‘tunnel motors’.  The air intakes on the body were at low level by the frame instead of on top, where they could suck exhaust.  The ‘tunnel motor’ design sucked intake air from a lower mid-level.  Many are still around today.  The design is the SD40-2T.
