The previous correlations between assets and hedges appears broken. We somehow get $DXY down, inflation up, precious metals down, stocks down, but then Bitcoin up. Which is something crypto holders might have been waiting for, enough confusion where suddenly crypto makes sense.

Have a feeling Monday finds its way down into the gap that was created.

X is the only social media I have so I do apologize for those that follow that want charts and trades not my dumb takes on things. It's my outlet for hip firing ideas and opinions with zero filter. You can ignore or argue back if you need to vent, I don't block anyone.

I miss the days when CPI was the big news for the week. PCE and CPI this week.

Conspiracy culture is getting out of control.

From a panic scale of 1 to 10, X makes every single event or a headline a 10. People are not incentivized to tell the truth anymore, they make money by selling you fear. Mainstream media use to be bad but I think we are at the point social media is even worse. It's exhausting.

$TSLA - Approaching a possible buy zone. Just had to be patient once the diagonal broke. I assume a lot less are interested at lower prices now than when it was higher.

The US now exports more oil than it imports. This is important because that was not the case in the 70s or 80s or 2000s. Better insulated but still affected. The difference between a 2022 midterm type correction versus a massive crash.

Higher oil prices benefit US oil companies short term but even they don't want higher prices to last. Consumers spend less and the economy weakens which hurts them too. The price is manipulated by design because it can't stay too high or too low for too long.
