Episode notes
INSIGHT

Price Moves Often Front‑Run Flows

  • Short-term price moves can be front-running of expected flows rather than the actual capital movement.
  • Sunday night's Bitcoin rally was a front-running reaction to procedural news, not immediate cash flows.
ADVICE

  • Watch government spending events as leading indicators for deposit growth and asset-buying power.
  • Use these flows to anticipate where liquidity may boost Bitcoin and equities in the medium term.
