Helter Skelter-----

FOMO-esque....

Remember money on the sidelines? New recent highs in "cash in mutual funds". Very defensive.

'CTAs continue trading a mean reversion market in a a "short gamma" fashion, pushing momentum shorts at lows, and chasing momentum longs at highs. Nomura's McElligott writes: "CTA Trend �buy to cover� flow of now +$31B WoW in Global Equities futures, almost entirely US and European Eq futs - and more �buy triggers� with proximity for Estoxx, ES, NQ and RTY".

Levels to buy: SPX 4107, NASDAQ 12729, Russell 1900. These strategies do not care about "feelings" and must execute.'

Imagine systematics FOMO kicks in?

They have chased some of the latest squeeze, but there is room to grow...much more.

"Janet Yellen is a distinguished economist, but her tenure as Treasury Secretary hasn�t enhanced her reputation. Her lack of influence with President Biden has meant she couldn�t stop bad policy (student-loan cancellation), and now the White House is rolling her out in election season to portray the U.S. economy as a Valhalla of growth, fairness and optimism. It�s not believable even if you drive a Tesla and live in Montecito.

Ms. Yellen spoke at the Ford Rouge Electric Vehicle Center in Dearborn, Mich., and you know why. Ford is getting a gusher of new subsidies and regulatory favors under the Biden Administration�s new industrial policy. If you�re in a green business the White House likes, you�re in clover. If not, you�ll endure the costs of more regulation and taxes. In the Biden era, big government and big business are in political business together.

She defends Bidenomics by ignoring inflation and falling real wages.

yellen turning on the FED:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Lj7l5c1yFM

OR

* Fed will raise interest rates to 4% �hell or high water,� says former Fed Vice Chair Clarida
* Wall Street, Fed officials warm to idea of third-straight 0.75% interest rate hike
* More worries for U.S. stocks, bonds: Fed ramps up 'QT'

�irreconcilable disconnect�
Or as Gasparino lets Larry Fink discuss "the potential economic harm being done in DC � much of it by his own party � that will make the Fed�s job of fighting inflation while attempting to engineer a so-called �soft landing� nearly impossible. Fink calls it an �irreconcilable disconnect� between what the White House is doing and Fed Chair Jerome Powell�s inflation-fighting mandate. .../.

President Biden�s economic blueprint has five pillars:

* Empowering Workers, with more, good-paying jobs and greater worker power to unionize and have dignity at work.

* Making and Building it in America, by investing in infrastructure, making America the world�s leader in clean energy jobs and innovation, bolstering our manufacturing base, and buying American.

* Giving Families Breathing Room, by lowering costs and expanding access to prescription drugs and high-quality health care, high-speed internet, education, child care and long-term care, housing, and other essential needs.

* Making American Industry More Competitive, Less Concentrated, and More Resilient, by taking on corporate concentration, promoting small businesses and entrepreneurs including minority and women owned businesses, and supporting resilient supply chains.

* Rewarding Work, Not Wealth, with worker-centric tax reform that ensures the wealthy and large corporations pay their fair share, while never raising taxes on households with incomes below $400,000, as was done in the Inflation Reduction Act.
