Going Down With The Clown

The Idiocracy is attracted to con men like a moth to a flame. They don't trust anyone who can be trusted. Trump's true believers are putting their money where their moron is...

Hanging tight. By the noose:
JPY net speculative short positions (red)

Five year Treasury yield with Goldman Sachs (red) finishing its Dodd-Frank repeal corruption rally...

The rig count is a leading indicator of U.S. production. From Friday:




Oil net speculative longs



The German Dax indicates why there've been four opening gaps lower in the past six U.S. trading sessions:




When volume breaks out, it's time for vertical mode...



Yes, again...
