If you are thinking inflation has been sinking in REAL terms you are not thinking. You are buying horse manure being peddled to you by politicians.
Now, onto something tangible —-
And we have yet another Crypto Scam confusing people who think it is stable —
A glamorous Russian influencer known as the “Queen of Crypto” scammed unsuspecting investors out of over $22 million that she then sent to Ukrainian troops amid the ongoing war, according to reports.
Russian authorities say Valeria Fedyakina, 24, portrayed herself as a cryptocurrency expert on social media to gain the trust of at least four victims who she later stole millions from, NewsX reported.
The influencer, who went by “Bitmama” on social media, pretended to be a cryptocurrency expert with offices in Moscow City, Dubai, Monaco, Serbia and Turkey and convinced her victims to trust her with their millions, CryptoNews also reported.
Unless The Little Dutch Boy, who is still hanging in, wants to spend 24 hours with his finger in the dyke, 1.08 will be vulnerable when markets turn thin.
Otherwise, USD maintains a bid, helped by firm US bond yield.
If you happened to catch my October 21, 2024 at 12:10 am post it was dead on accurate.
Now I am thinking UsdJpy, if it is going to run into trouble will be around the 151.20/30 area. I have been on the buy side and am now flat in that pair. You could see the undertow across certain barometers and markets when Euro 108 was under fire and stocks were a part of that with certain metrics showing strength into the selling. Jay’s reference to options defense was a part of it. My preference has been the sell side of UsdChf due to the post I referenced and the elements in it.
