Everything is a currency

why do u see those huge overnite moves?

#Swap's
Here is an example - TSLA earnings met but there were some problems so stonk dropped.

But it dropped relative to YESTERDAYS currencies.

Today?

DXY is down a bit.

Notice what happened to the stonk relative to currency.
This morning, of course another #SWAP

The euro strengthened(1)
The dxy weakened (2)
I expect a pop in the indexes (3) on the open

its all currencies doing this

But keep an eye on the 30y (blue) its going up. Everything follows the 30y eventually. A swap coming to correct today
In between everything else in this "market" you are working against:
a) cb money games
b) corp malfeasance
c) supply shock
d) rising interest rates
e) vol sellers slurping theta
f) fintwit "influencers"
g) cnbc shills
And know that i am of the strong opinion you must do swaps, ideally iron condors or at least butterfly's to protect from theta decay and rot of vix due to swaps.

See here - notice the vix vs dxy

Its not TIGHT correlation but there seems to be influence.

U don no when swaps hit
Another observation - say you have a loan on a 10m office building.
you got the loan at 2%.
Well that sucks rn cause interest rates are way higher.
So, you want the arb on the interest rate - so you "swap" interest rate w/ higher, and they pay lower.

Banksters will bankster.
sorry - spreads

The Final Reckoning - A Nation Consumes Itself
🧵👇

I study the vix, geopolitics and currencies - trying to make sense of what is actually happening in the context of sound bites we get here or there from government.

Its hard to paint an actual picture from a single sound bite or news article.

But when you put them all together you paint a tapestry - some call it a masterpiece - others call it a dystopian hellscape.

For each point I will try to include a relevant news topic.

Lets begin.
The U.S. is not just struggling; it's in a death spiral.

Driven by hyperinflation & desperation, the government is making choices that solidify its descent into kleptocracy and civil breakdown.

Here’s the terrifying truth that is unfolding
Crypto: Not Innovation, But Capitulation.

The government, facing a worthless dollar, is now frantically trying to contain crypto by regulating it into the banking system.

This isn't forward-thinking; it's a desperate attempt to co-opt the flight from fiat before total loss of control.

Its an admission the dollar is no longer a store of value which is pretty damning for a government to turn against its own currency like this.

Lets build.

This is my calculated vix.
The higher it goes the higher the vix should be.

👇🧵 Image
It is a function of bond yields.
Bond yields SLOW the markets down.
Its MORE expensive to borrow

The west runs on finance- price of debt (the yield) matters a lot, just like it matters to you when you buy a car a house or put chipotle on credit. Image

A while back i calculated what the vix SHOULD be based on yields.

(1) you can see clear correlation
(2) it broke but the peaks still match

Currency fiddling.
Pegs.
Making your currency artificially weaker -

This is all great when you are attempting to game the system.

Until one day it blows up in your face.

👇🧵 Image
I have an open quiz, go ahead and take it before moving forward - cause its important to understand the game....
So what happened to TWD?

well, the game is "make our currency weaker so we can export more"

This has been going on a long time - they arent the only ones doing this.

Its wednesday.

Lets break your brain again.

This is a currency thread.
🧵👇
This is complex, so clear your mind, get some coffee and relax.

You are in charge of a country call it "MyCountry" with a currency called "Denaro's"

In the past you invested heavily to build your factories and vities to make things as efficient (read low cost) as possible.
Now you want to increase trade.

What do you do?

You weaken your currency - now, your products compared to the world are cheaper than anywhere else.

Your orders explode.
