โ ๏ธ Markets are about to lose their EYES.
If youโre holding stocks, crypto, or commodities โ read this carefully ๐
๐ The Data Blackout Begins
With the shutdown in place, weโre heading into a serious data blackout for markets:
๐ No inflation data
๐ No jobless claims
๐ No GDP / PCE numbers
๐ No CFTC positioning reports
๐ No updated balance sheets
๐ Translation:
The Fed, funds, and investors are flying BLIND.
๐ What History Tells Us
When markets lose data visibility, two patterns usually emerge:
1๏ธโฃ Hard assets SURGE
๐ก Gold
โช Silver
๐ Copper
โ uncertainty fuels safe-haven demand ๐
2๏ธโฃ Risk assets turn chaotic
๐ Stocks become volatile
๐ Sentiment swings violently
โ no data = no conviction
โ ๏ธ Warning From the Past
The last time funding stress escalated fast?
๐งจ March 2020
๐ The SOFR vs IORB spread exploded โ a clear signal of system stress before broader panic followed.
๐ Keep this spread on your radar.
๐ฅ Bottom Line
๐ซ No data
๐ซ No guidance
๐ซ No guardrails
Markets donโt like uncertainty โ and this just injected a LOT of it.
๐ง Stay alert
๐ Manage risk
โก Expect sudden, violent moves
