Risk markets are at a critical point here with the turmoil in the White House looming over the end of the latest business and earnings cycle, as a multitude of bubbles and overcooked asset markets are causing huge hesitation for investors. Treasury yields remain elevated, while US stock markets cannot make good on their recovery from the January correction, with year to date gains still in negative territory. Currency markets are increasing in volatility over the looming trade war while commodities are under threat by a resurgent USD.
Its a great time to be a trader, not so much an investor with all this volatility.
