THE NEW #FOMC MANDATE IS NOW OFFICIAL: SAVE THE #STOCKS BUBBLE AT ALL COSTS!
Let’s give a round of applause to Jerome Burns (aka Jerome Powell) for his incredible confidence in saying things like “#inflation is showing some seasonality that doesn’t change its downward trend”. First of all, can someone remind him that what he has been commenting on in the last 6 years…
“Oops!… I did it again!” – #BOJ DANGEROUS SCHIZOPHRENIA
The Bank Of Japan (#BOJ) attempted to have its cake and eat it too, again, but this time, they didn’t have the luxury to do so anymore. The #BOJ had to decide which one to save between Japan’s economy and the global #stocks bubble, as we discussed last week (article…
THE WORLD ECONOMY DESPERATELY NEEDS A NEW PAUL VOLCKER
I believe we now all agree the #inflation genie, or perhaps “devil,” is back with a vengeance. Who could have foreseen that? Well… I did 3 months ago ( “The Real Fight Against #Inlfation Has Not Even Started Yet” ), but most people were too busy getting drunk on the…
ARE WE GOING TO SEE THE #FED FIREFIGHTING A #BOJ HIKE THIS WEEK?
This week we are going to have such a parade of central bank decisions on the menu: #RBA, #BOJ, #FOMC, #BOE, and #SNB 😵💫 All eyes will surely be on the #BOJ and the #FOMC. I do expect they will play “good cop bad cop” with market emotions. 🤭 The…
#STOCKS IDES OF MARCH – IS FEAR ABOUT TO STAB $NVDA EUPHORIA IN THE BACK?
This incoming 15th of March will surely not hold a place in human history like the murder of Julius Caesar; however, the stage is set for what could turn out to be a hell of an eventful “Quadruple witching” #OPEX day. First of all, the darling of the current #stocks…
MR. MARKET HAS BEEN FULLY REPLACED BY MR. DERIVATIVES – OH MAMMA MIA!
What a clown show the US market has become. Please forgive me, but I cannot find any better words to describe it. Before the US #CPI came out, I wrote these words: “Once data is out and is within the range of expectations (even if “hot”), algorithms start dumping the…
WHY ARE MARKET MAKERS SELLING INSURANCE ON A ($NYCB) HOUSE THAT’S ALREADY ON FIRE?
By this time, the news of $NYCB closing should have already hit the tape. However, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THIS NEWS IS POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE, the price of this #stock is MATHEMATICALLY going to crash by 40-50%. Wait, why mathematically? Let me explain. Scenario 1 – A $1bn rescue package for…
NVIDIA CAN CRASH 20% ON MONDAY AND NOBODY SHOULD BE SURPRISED ABOUT THAT
If you think that Nvidia got where it is today because of its fundamental valuations, I am sorry but you might want to revise what “fundamental analysis” stands for. It’s no secret anymore that the company has been using borderline legal accounting shenanigans and commercial practices to report much higher…
DEAR ALL, IT WILL ALL END LIKE IN THE MOVIE “INDEPENDENCE DAY”
Yesterday, I watched the opening of #US #stocks trading in literal disbelief as investors stampeded into $NYCB, sending the stock up 15% at some point. The scene reminded me of the movie “Independence Day”, one of my favorites, when you see people dancing on top of buildings right below the…
