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.

Elsewhere, we look into the US treasury and BTP market, preview the FOMC meeting tonight, note signs of strong demand for risky UAL debt and more.
