Today's slide deck: https://bit.ly/3qXa4L5 -
Today, we look at the ongoing short squeeze across virtually all of the most shorted equity names and discuss the degree to which this is contributing to the worst spike in volatility for the broader US equity market since mid-March of last year, a couple of weeks prior to the market bottom at the time. We also look into Apple and Tesla earnings reports, signs of investors running for cover in the USD and US treasuries and what that means, and the contagion of the volatility across assets, including into commodities. Today's call with Peter Garnry on equities, Ole Hansen on commodities, and John J. Hardy hosting and on FX.
