The April price bloodbath has already passed out in folklore as the ribbon turns into a complete dimming bidding mode. The Europe 600 Stoxx 600 has recovered approximately 62% of its slide, the S&P 500 is halfway through its pre-tariff peaks, and retail traders take on options of options such as Black Friday-in addition to 40 billion dollars in net shares Last month, the largest transport ever recorded. Mutual fund managers stood up behind them, exercising the “Trump put” as a hall pass: deferred and political -annoying policy dates back to the February levels – why not take care of the cheap beta?

If the CTAs are short of ammunition, there is a pocket of air building underneath. My mantra: go up the fusion, but don't marry it. I will keep a net-long bias while the kicking strategy reduces the risk of a tail, but each position has a preloaded ejection hatch. When this punch bowl makes spikes – and it always does it – I prefer to overthrow some sprinting drops for the output to clean the mess thereafter.
Net-Net: the upward pain trade is alive, unarned capital is the premium accelerator and flight always pays rent. The market dared us continue to press “buy” until something is finally rushing. I am – I'm just with sneakers and the crack car has warmed up.
