The U.S. and China have been in a currency war since 2010 and a trade war since 2018. Then came the Wuhan virus pandemic. Now, U.S.-China relations are getting worse not just in the economic sphere, but also in the geopolitical sphere. The story?s rather complicated.

Venezuela is desperate to generate oil revenue. Iran has the technology to help Venezuela, but it wants payment in gold because the U.S. has shut Iran out of the global payments system. Iran also wants weapons technology from China. Meanwhile, China wants all the gold it can get. So a three-party deal was worked out whereby all parties get what they want.

This is just one more point of escalation of tensions between the U.S. and China. It also means it?s easier to stumble into a shooting war.

As long as the FED continue to pledge donating cash away and the bots traders will respond with upward bound, there is no limit and no constraints. We don?t rely on human anymore for stocks purchases. It is being done by AI.
 
I'm betting on one more dip this month with downward ladder limit orders.

Update:  setup ladder limit orders on FENY

If AI is the real deal, why did we go down?

Global Call for the dollars to meet obligation to cover debts. When you have global forced sales and the need to have liquidity to sell at whatever the price, the downward sell was quick and deep.

Still about 85% cash in brokerage but getting gun shy now as the overreaction is considerably worse than I thought. I?m just assuming our 401ks are going to lose 50%.

I still think the comeback will be swift in the second half of the year if things resume back to normal in 2-3 weeks. I need to remind myself that things will get better over the longer term but getting a little bit harder every day.

Although the psychological impact of this may be longer lasting than I first anticipated so that bounce may not be as swift after all. Who knows.

Morekaos seems to have nerves of steel so maybe I?ll give him my money and let him manage it.

Blowout jobs report justifies stock surge, bond market sell off
Stocks surged and bonds sold off after the surprise record gain of 2.5 million jobs in May, a sharp contrast to the loss of 8.3 million jobs expected by Wall Street economists.
Industrials, financials and real estate led Friday?s rally, all sectors that benefit most from an economic rebound.
Bonds have joined the reopening trade for the first time, selling off significantly this week, as data has improved.

The FED is trying to fill all that holes. The rally is a a result of over promised. It?s like the ship is taking on waters and more holes are being bore than the plugs is available. So the water is slowing down, none the less it still taking on water. At some points the plugs all use up and more and more water filling in. Then the only other way is to abandon ship and build a new one.
 
I thought the same as you back 10 years ago.  How can the FED keep doing QE??? and printing money?
Well....they can and they will.

Because if they don't, it's the end of the world as we know it.

DOW 30,000, here we come.

Like the Roman Empire?

Well, we need someone to come in and fix our money problems. Wait I've read that book. I'll be gone along with some other Talk Irvinites and you'll think we just disappeared for no reason.
 
This liquidity, FOMO, TINA rally, whatever you want to call it, is not sustainable. It has no foundation in earnings, growth or future expected growth. It is Fed manufactured.

the wealth gap has widened even further since the pandemic broke. That?s dangerous because the people who have lost their jobs are the real economy and consumer spending is key to any growth. As this wealth gap widens between holders of stock and ones just trying to hold onto their jobs, further Fed action may be necessary.

It won?t be the first time the can get kicks down the road. The boomer generations just want to have a good retirements and kick back in the beach and taking it easy. In case you forget travel and leisure is not coming back and the pension systems is about to go under. That?s when the cans can no longer be kick to have the next generation to pay for.
