      Quantitative tightening slows down! How is the best way to get on a car with options? Bonds?

      Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers said on Thursday that the Federal Reserve's decision to significantly slow down the pace of shrinking balance sheet this week actually sent a worrying signal that there is a problem with market demand for long-term federal debt."This should arouse people's alarm and be regarded as a disturbing trend," Summers said in an interview on TV program. He pointed to the move as a sign that Fed policymakers believe that "the market absorption capacity of long-term bonds is limited."The Federal Reserve announced on Wednesday that it will lower the upper limit on the amount of U.S. Treasury Bond that will not be reinvested after maturity from $25 billion per month to $5 billion starting in April.

This definition is taken from Wikipedia: In stock market trading, a bull trap is an inaccurate signal that a declining trend in a stock or index has reversed and is now heading upward, when, in fact, the security will continue to decline.

      Stocks rallied after Powell’s dovish tone hinted at potential rate cuts, fueling hopes for a soft landing. The rebound could have legs if inflation continues to ease and the Fed stays supportive. However, risks remain — geopolitical tensions and economic data could still disrupt the rally. Growth and tech stocks may benefit most from lower rates, but cyclicals could lag if economic slowdown fears resurface. For now, staying selectively bullish on quality names seems like the smart play.

So Fed Put = cut rates. Is no where in sight. But stocks remain expensive with her high PE. So best is wait for Trump brinkmanship in tariffs to bring markets down first. #pandaszen #pandas #zen #hacks #ideas #analysis

In Greater China, the tech sector experienced a slight pullback, but the consumer sector took the lead, driving notable gains in the Shanghai Composite Index and the CSI 300. In the U.S., the stock market temporarily stabilized, ending its streak of consecutive declines. Although the Nasdaq surged on Friday, it still closed the week down by more than 2%.

The $S&P 500(.SPX)$ gained a total of 2.78% over Friday and Monday, slightly above the historical average rebound of +2.45% following a 10% correction, making it a relatively normal occurrence (see last Thursday Commentary).The most important macro event this week is Wendesday’s FOMC meeting. Based on interest rate futures pricing, the probability of a rate cut tomorrow is only 1%. We believe this pricing is reasonable—economic weakness is not yet evident enough, and uncertainty surrounding the inflationary impact of tariff policies gives the Fed no reason to cut rates at this moment. Therefore, the market's focus will be on the

Investors are now asking: is this the beginning of a sustained rally, or just another temporary relief bounce before further downside? What’s Driving the Rebound? Several factors have contributed to the recent market strength, including cooling inflation data, resilient corporate earnings, and hopes that central banks may ease their tightening policies. Let’s break down the key drivers: 1. Inflation Cooling, Fed Pivot Hopes? Inflation has been a dominant force in the market’s volatility over the past year. Recent data suggests that price pressures may be easing, leading to speculation that the Federal Reserve and other central banks could soon pause or even pivot on inter

Today i want to share some macro analysis with you!1. $Gold - main 2504(GCmain)$ Technical: Gold prices continue to rise and face a resistance level near $3050, which must be broken to confirm further medium-term bullishness towards $3100-3200. Otherwise, if the resistance level remains intact, gold prices could fall towards $3000, or even $2950! Technical data on the daily chart suggests that the bullish trend will continue. Despite the Relative Strength Index (RSI) being at overbought levels, the technical indicators remain firmly to the upside with no signs of the upside drying up. Meanwhile, the gold price is well above all of its moving averages, with the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) resuming its upward move and curr
