The POWELL FED - destroying the housing sector:
"Demand for a new mortgage for a home purchase fell again yesterday. Aside from mid-February, you would have to go all the way back to 1995 to see lower mortgage demand (where the US population is 70 million lower than it is today)."

Good Morning from #Germany, where long-dated yields continue to rise. 20y German bund yields have risen to their highest level since 2011 at 2.84%. 30y yields have risen to highest level since 2013, while 10y yields are on the verge of surpassing the March high of 2.75% and https://t.co/f1tYwyCqrl

Most Federal Reserve officials backed an increase in interest rates last month but some saw rising risks that they might raise rates too high, underscoring a new level of caution about further increases.

Good morning to all the new put buyers.
Yesterday's equity put/call ratio was 1.03, highest since March.

ETF put/call ratio was 1.57, highest since June 14th

AAII Folks got a wee bit more cautious this week.
Bulls -9 to 35.9%
Bears +4.5 to 30.1%

My pinned tweet is hard at work. https://t.co/ypuVLdT2HL

- 10y real yields have surged for 7 straight sessions and now just shy of 2% at 1.98%
- 10y nominal yields are 3bps shy of breaking intraday cycle highs of 4.33%

Oh no the bullishness is still here lol!!  Market is getting pretty oversold though and we are moving into expiration with put prices soaring so there may be chance of some kind of rally as long as bonds cooperate.  Added a little to my long bringing my average to 4430, should be another fun day, thank goodness futures aren't soaring....

And there we go, a little more pop and profit stopping at 4431, we'll see about buying back before the cash open though....
