Markets are adjusting fast after today's US jobless claims came in better than expected, which is reinforcing the strong labor market story..
Current pricing now shows roughly a 95% probability that the Fed will hold rates steady at the January 28 FOMC meeting—no cut..
This is important. A pause would confirm that the easing cycle is likely to be more gradual and very data-dependent going forward. That setup can create short-term choppiness, while still supporting assets that are riding liquidity flows and showing relative strength.
A few markets already starting to reflect this macro shift 👀

The latest macro data coming out of the Federal Reserve is raising serious red flags — and almost no one is paying attention.

What we’re seeing right now is not “bullish liquidity” or healthy market support. It’s emergency funding. And that distinction matters more than most investors realize.

🚩 The Real Signal Behind the Fed’s Balance Sheet Expansion
The Fed’s balance sheet just expanded by roughly $105 billion — but this wasn’t QE.

Here’s what actually happened:

Standing Repo Facility: +$74.6B

Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS): +$43.1B

Treasuries: only +$31.5B

When the Fed is absorbing more MBS than Treasuries, that’s a warning sign. It signals declining collateral quality and tightening funding conditions. This only happens during periods of financial stress.

Banks needed liquidity — fast.
And the Fed stepped in to prevent funding markets from breaking.

That’s not bullish.
That’s defensive.

🧨 The Bigger Problem No One Wants to Talk About
U.S. national debt has crossed $34 trillion — and it’s accelerating faster than GDP.

Interest payments are now one of the largest components of the federal budget. The U.S. is effectively issuing new debt to service old debt.

That’s a structural debt spiral.

At this stage, Treasuries are no longer truly “risk-free.”
They’re a confidence trade — and that confidence is starting to erode.

Foreign demand is weakening

Domestic buyers are highly price-sensitive

The Fed is quietly becoming the buyer of last resort

You cannot sustain record deficits while funding markets tighten.
You cannot roll massive debt when collateral quality deteriorates.

And yet, markets are pretending this is business as usual.

🌍 This Is Global — Not Just a U.S. Issue
China is facing the same pressure.

The PBoC injected over 1.02 trillion yuan in a single week via reverse repos. Different economy. Same problem.

Too much debt.
Not enough trust.

When both the U.S. and China are forced to inject liquidity simultaneously, that’s not stimulus.

That’s the global financial plumbing starting to clog.

📉 Why Markets Always Misread This Phase
This is where investors get trapped.

Liquidity injections ≠ bullish
Funding stress ≠ opportunity

This phase is about keeping the system functioning, not pushing asset prices higher.

The historical sequence is consistent every time:

Bonds react first

Funding markets show stress

Equities ignore it — until they can’t

Crypto takes the hardest hit

🟡 The Signal That Actually Matters
Gold at all-time highs.
Silver at all-time highs.

This is not growth optimism.
This is not inflation hype.

This is capital rejecting sovereign debt and moving into hard collateral.

That only happens when trust in paper promises starts to crack.

We’ve seen this exact setup before:

2000 → Dot-com collapse

2008 → Global Financial Crisis

2020 → Repo market seizure

Each time, recession followed shortly after.

⚖️ The Fed Is Trapped
Print aggressively → metals explode, signaling loss of control

Don’t print → funding markets freeze under impossible debt loads

Risk assets can ignore reality for a while.
But never forever.

This is not a normal cycle.

It’s a slow-forming crisis centered on:

Balance sheets

Collateral quality

Sovereign debt sustainability

By the time it becomes obvious, most investors will already be positioned wrong.

📌 Position accordingly if you want to survive 2026.

I’ve been calling major market tops and bottoms for over a decade.
When I make my next move, I’ll share it here first.

If you’re not following yet, you may want to — before this becomes impossible to ignore.
