Market Analysis
There was actually some Accumultion taking place around 6560, pushing the SP500 Indicator straight back into weak greenish territory. Freshly generated liquidity by the recent FED rate cut counteracts the seasonal weaknes ahead. Feels like everyone’s bullish (even because) the economy is tanking. But crypto markets already showed weakness last week, while Wall Street was busy flexing with +30% single-stock pumps. The real question is: how much of “MAGA in the head” do you need to be to keep buying now?
Cryptos are diving and Gold is skyrocketing. A clear sign that everything is gaga-great and under control. Risk indicators are extremely low, as well as the VIX. Puts are cheap all over the place.
Treasury Auctions: Liquidity and Political Risk
One factor that will be particularly interesting in the days ahead are the upcoming U.S. Treasury auctions. If investors are shaken out of equities by fear and volatility, that capital could flow into government debt — just as a wave of new issuance is set to hit the market. According to the TreasuryDirect Upcoming Auctions, several sizable bill and note auctions are scheduled over the next sessions, typically in the range of $10–30 billion each, depending on maturity.
For October, based on the Treasury’s tentative schedule, gross issuance could amount to $100–140 billion when combining coupon securities and bills. If yields remain stable despite this supply, it would be a constructive sign for markets. But if rates move higher, the funding burden for Washington rises — and the debt strategy could quickly backfire on the current administration.
