We're hearing more and more about how the CRE market could crumble soon, and take down some banks with it.
But what exactly is CRE, what's wrong with it, and why is it so important?
Time for a Credit 🧵👇

🤓 What is CRE?
First of all, what exactly is the Commercial Real Estate or CRE market, and what are its components?
To keep it simple, the CRE market can be divided into six main sectors:
Office, Retail, Industrial, Multi-Family Property, Hospitality, and Special Purpose.

Office, Retail, Industrial, Multi-Family Property, Hospitality, and Special Purpose.
To break it down further:
Offices = urban high-rises or suburban offices/campuses
Retail = shopping centers (strip or regional malls) + stand alone stores or big-boxes, like Home Depot or Krogers
Industrial = warehouses, manufacturing, and distribution centers 👇

Since its inception in 2009, #Bitcoin has gained mainstream recognition & acceptance, therefore the need for a Bitcoin Spot ETF has become increasingly important. A $BTC spot ETF would offer numerous benefits, not just for individual investors but for the overall #crypto market
Throughout the years I've talked to numerous high-net-worth people, and I mean the top tier, like 0,1% type.
Many, if not all, are still very skeptical towards Bitcoin, not because they don't like the tech or the possible returns, but because they don't like the EXTERNAL RISK!

Wealthy people know that protecting their stack is the best way to stay wealthy. Until now, we haven't seen much of this legacy money, except a few high-risk prop firms or some small hedge funds.

Good News: The debt ceiling is resolved, so the Treasury will not default.
Bad News: The Treasury’s accounts are drained, and must be refilled with over $1T.
Question is, could this break the markets?

😵 The Treasury General Account
Let's start at the top here. What exactly is the Treasury General Account or TGA?
Just like it sounds, this is basically the US Treasury’s checking account
Where it holds cash and pays its bills.

If you’ve been watching the debt ceiling drama, you may have noticed that the account balance recently fell to a precipitous level
It was dangerously close to being overdrawn.

2023 might be 1936 all over again - beyond the weather 🤔
Yes, I'm a nerd🤓
Spent my entire afternoon looking at El Niño (blue) & La Niña (pink) data for the past century. Stars reflect triple dip La Niña, which we just finished. Might explain our unusually dry weather./thread

Weaker triple dip La Niñas occurred in 1973-76 & 1998-2001 - perhaps why the drought severity wasn't as extreme as previous triple dips.
From mid-April 2022 more than 97% of Texas was gripped by drought

Yup, appears to be happening...

Apart from a softer dollar providing a general lift following weeks of strength, we are seeing increased speculation that the Chinese government may step up its support for the economy and some signs that demand is holding up
Overall, the Bloomberg Commodity Index remains down 8% on the year with losses being led by the energy sector, not least a 56% slump in US natural gas, as well as industrial metals suffering from a so far, less commodity intensive post-pandemic recovery in China.

*Hyperinflation*
With inflation soaring the past two years, this term is being thrown around quite a bit recently.
And people are starting to wonder: Could the USD hyperinflate?

Time for a Currency 🧵👇
🤔 What is hyperinflation?
First, hyperinflation is when a currency experiences extraordinary and accelerating rates of inflation
The currency's value falls so quickly it becomes virtually worthless
So, people resort to using alternative forms of money or bartering.

Though incredibly subjective, the academic definition for hyperinflation is when a country experiences inflation rates above 50% per month. Not before that.
49% = “regular inflation” and 50% = “hyperinflation”
Got it. 🤡

Under this 100 Year model, we find the final bottom by the end of 2024/early 2025.
It is then #XRP becomes the Pheonix and is reborn as the new World Reserve Currency.

We went max gld/gdx/gdxj yesterday as tweeted. 4 main reasons:
1) #GOLD and miners below low end of @Hedgeye risk ranges and bullish trade/trend
2)bond yields at upper risk range
3)@KeithMcCullough went max long(macro pro subs see his pa trades
4) @HedgeyeDC on THE CALL yesterday

Said very little progress was being made on debt talks contrary to what the MSM was saying.
BTW,THE CALL is awesome. Case in point. This am @HedgeyeIndstrls said that Deere's numbers were not as bullish as earnings headlines implied. We shorted DE in our PA at the open at $389

(Above top end of RR) and closed it 2 hours later at the low end of risk range($364) also before debt ceiling news so it wasn't luck. We aren't trying to brag but to show u if u use @Hedgeye tools, you can do this without @KeithMcCullough's hand holding.

#Gold has recovered a litle of thegrounds lost over the past few days and is trading around $1963/oz on Friday just after noon in Europe.
The dollar has slipped a little overnight, which has taken the pressure of #gold for the near term.
There are more fundamental (or sentimental) reasons why gold has corrected.
There hasn't been a bank failure for a few weeks.
The appearance of progress on the debt ceiling talks in the US.
A slightly more hawkish Fed.

THIS IS #BIG ! #Hawala 2.0 Will EXPLODE in India post JULY 1st. Just My opinion:

If you try and BUY #Foreign Currency in the Black, that spread that used to be 2-3%, will now become 10% possibly
Unused Balances of Loaded Forex Cards will Go at a Premium of 10-12%

🧵 Gold is underrated and could be pushed up by #Dedollarization, Bridgewater's Co-CIO said.
"This geopolitical turmoil is not going away. This is a slow-moving secular support for #gold," Karen Karniol-Tambour said.
👉 #Inflation will also keep interest in gold elevated as well.

The first thing to notice is that goods prices have broadly stabilised and volumes are fairly flat - in other words, #NGDP has ceased its torrid pace of increase. Service prices are still elevated but #payroll cost increase is slowing.

The #ISM #PMI showed an uptick but is still below 50 which implies that revenue growth is NOT about to accelerate again. Again, slower #inflation & flatline volume = an end to the boom, but not yet a bust.

I've expressed before that XRP's value cannot be tied to any particular asset/commodity. A decentralized digital currencies value is determined by the forces of supply and demand. However, what follows is a theoretical and speculative scenario, yet still plausible.

First of all, what got me into this train of thought was an article from late last year. Go ahead and read it to grasp some similarities in what I will explain. Essentially its a forced revaluation of gold driven by market oil prices.

Gold is moving up to test all time highs around US$2089 (basis futures).
The mover higher has been steady so far but should become very active once new highs are achieved.
A Wave 3 is in play and short covering should add zip.

Breaking to new highs should bring about an out-of-the-box move.
Over 40 months in this box so the compression pressure should be very high.

The long term outlook for gold looks very robust indeed.
That `box' is just a small step in this long journey to a new gold standard.
Gold is being reassessed before it is being revalued.
And revalued much higher.

Quarters until 1964 were 90% silver and 10% copper.
Quarters now are 91.67% copper and 8.33% nickel.
So now even that is getting too expensive for them and they want to use even cheaper metals to make our coins.
Next step is just all digital, zero metal.
