Episode notes
Bearish Signals
- Joe McCann's bearish view is driven by market signals like swing failure patterns in Bitcoin and the S&P 500.
- These, coupled with a hawkish Fed and collapsing liquidity, suggest a potential market reversal.
Fed vs. Market
- The Fed's hawkish tilt contrasts with the current economic boom, reflected in a steeping yield curve.
- This suggests the market prioritizes growth over inflation, unlike the Fed.
Dollar and Yields
- The dollar index (DXY) and yields have surged due to Trump-related uncertainty.
- Their potential decline hinges on inauguration day and Trump's actions/tweets.
