As expected, the FED's 'new' PCE calculation method shows lower inflation & stable spending. Just exclude food/energy prices & everything looks great. So, other than your children starving and you can't afford gas things are good aren't they? The sun'll come out tomorrow. Bet your bottom dollar...

Treasury sales not going well. The US5Y TNote auction had increased yields too (5.033%). This adds to Bessent's frail attempt to effect interest rates by buying US20-30Y Bonds with US2Y funds. Rates are going up NOT down. Can Warsh defy Trump's demand for rate CUTS? www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqrj...

BTC appears to be limiting it's wilder gyrations. Not sure that makes it an investable value. It remains barely above the cost of mining 1 BTC (at nominal electric rates). Whale investors can probably still whipsaw the price if inspired, especially foreign ones. MSTR is still at .90 on the dollar.

BTC popped up 18%. Why? The claim- Bessent plans $4B+ long bond buyback. Using our money to pay down 30yr bonds with 5 yr (or less) with slightly lower interest rates. Basically, paying a higher interest CC bill with a different CC. NO real change, just looks better. Economic kiting?
