Global risk-off sentiment has intensified, partly on fears of a U.S. recession. Read our special BlackRock Bulletin to discover why we think those fears could be overdone and what it means for investors ๐Ÿ‘‰1blk.co/3ytODe8

Since 1989 the largest quarterly spread between market cap weighted and equal weighted S&P 500 was Q4 1999 at 7.7% (bubble). Second largest was Q1 2020 (covid) This was the third largest spread at ~6.6%. 3 of the last 6 quarters are in the top 6 spreads ever.

just in case you were wondering why things feel weird. realized correlation is very very low (dispersion is high). The dispersion trade continues to pay despite people thinking the articles about it were the top

Toby puts out the data. It's big. But it is problematic. The pre-GFC reference was the Bank Shareholding Purchase Corporation (BSPC) which was a separate entity owned/funded by the BOJ which bought equity stakes from banks at a large discount if banks wanted/needed to sell.

The seminal paper on why so many plants exhibit this spiral structure is this from douady and couder sciencedirect.com/science/arโ€ฆ
The Fibonacci sequence appears in nature more frequently than one might expect; the branching of trees, arrangement of leaves on a stem, the fruitlets of a pineapple, even the spiral galaxies all exhibit Fibonacci patterns.

Inflows to four CSI 300 ETFs on the mainland appeared to be US$17.9bn (RMB 128.5bn) in January 2024. Assuming that is National Team buying, that is more than the BOJ has bought of Japanese equity ETFs in any 31-day period, ever including during the massive buying in March 2020.

The Battle Of Water Loo has been lost at Eton.
Eton has delayed the start of its term as toilets in the boys' boarding school are blocked from flooding in Thames Water's sewers. "The sewers in the centre of Eton won't cope with the arrival of nearly 1,350 boys." A stinking @BloombergUK exclusive ๐Ÿ‘‡ bloomberg.com/news/articles/โ€ฆ

Thereโ€™s a backstory in here about how the Peronist governor of Buenos Aires introduced a parallel currency called the Patacon in the dying days of the Currency Board, leading to McDonaldโ€™s inventing a special meal for BA called the Patacombo. just-food.com/news/argentinaโ€ฆ
I wonder how people in Argentina whose decades long experiment in Peronist controls has gone so badly they were willing to elect a dude who talks to ghosts via clone dogs feel about American Marxists demanding Big Mac price controls
