Not so fast. Relative to open interest, it is actually the largest hedge fund short position since right before the top of the market in 2007 which shows that this is not a reliable contrarian indicator at all.
Why are #NFTs defying Crypto Crash? While Ether has dropped 40% since Nov, NFT Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) has hit fresh highs. NFTs denominated in Ether, which means they’re showing neg correlation w/crypto. Google searches for “NFT” outpaced “crypto.” https://t.co/Mkrc2EgFEl
Your periodic reminder that long-term real yields must remain super low for the system not to collapse, as we become more and more leveraged over time.
Remember when the US government decided to sell their Strategic Petroleum Reserves (SPR) to combat rising cost of fuel back in November?

Good Morning from Germany, where housing boom accelerated as Germans buying real estate fearing rising inflation, rents & interest rates. Europace House Price Index jumped 2.1% in Dec. Gained a whopping 15.6% in 2021. Index has risen in tandem w/ECB Balance Sheet to ever new ATHs
