  • Markets : Nvidia just told Microsoft, Google, and Oracle their AI bills are going up 15%, NVDA earnings on Wednesday, always pretty key for general Ai sentiment (circular economy etc), BABA down 10% in HK, Samsung disappointed, Anthropic IPO details coming out, U.S. has just 41 days of crude oil inventory left, the lowest level in half a century, GOLD has broken back well above 200dma around 4'500$ >>> overall 'debasement' trade came back pretty swiftly, was only a matte of time, Bessent's attempt to control/manipulate bond market can/will backfire, could be the beginning of the big debasement trade 2.0 >> it's the bond market or the USdollar.., can't have your cake and eat it, seems pretty obvious that IF a choice has to be made, and IMHO the market is beginning to do just that... the USDollar will be the fall guy... (Bessent intervening with BoJ might be a sign-push....), Gold bigger than UST in CB reserves by now, main play (but consider also XAG, PLAT, PALL, Copper etc)...and BTC of course
