So how is the average American surviving?
We're seeking better opportunities and higher wages. The leverage right now is in the worker's favor. Some went into business for themselves. Self-employment is on the rise, a lot of Americans are getting into logistics.

I don't know. Hopefully, Americans didn't bite off more than they can chew. Of course, the younger people are going to struggle because a lot of them aren't financially literate. The older people should be okay if company's don't start lay-offs. But the job market is has a lot of openings. So it shouldn't be a long lay-off if you lose a job.

How are inflation, job growth, and unemployment there? Also wages?

{quote} I don't know how to properly describe. All day like this since late Asia. Actually since 12/21/2021 like this most of the time, but there was decent retracements in between. We can’t do anything in principle, big money buying and setting up buy-limits on highs* to support the price quotes -> any sale now is the hope that tomorrow something will change, which may well be. *buy-limits are always there, but now they are in abundance
I see.
Thinking about, can this be possible cause of this strange behaviour bying GU, and perhaps no one is buying Gbp, but selling USD?

10y Bond Auction was todays event.
Noticed bigger increase on interest rate, compared with past auctions.

US bought bonds with 2-10 year maturity to cover their own debt. Now sold and received 0.2% higher interest and price purchase increase / decrease difference.
The more they buy/sell the bigger debt they have...

{quote} Yet!!! It beating our asses since last year. The inflation is out of control. It came right after the last stimulus package.
how big is it? 20% increase in food prices a year? 30% increase in real estate prices a year?

Sell didn't work out

Looks like a breakout on DXY, that move was too powerful to be a fakie imo. We are coming off of weekly supply on dollar so its not a total shock. GU can head quite a bit higher after a retest. I'd assume a corrective move soon before more bull on GU

Fundamental analysis is not my strong suit. What are these numbers 1.72|2.5?

Open interest rose yesterday and today, after clearing, it will show growth (hard to imagine otherwise) .
Probably both, throw off dollars and pour money into other assets.

1.72 is the interest rate, which has gone up. 2.5 is the offer. As a rule it should be good for the usd, but at the moment it's anyone's guess.

Number meaning-
'1.72|2.5' format - the first number is the highest interest rate of the bonds sold, and the second number is the bid-to-cover ratio (number of bids made per bid accepted)

Bones is an expert in this.
I can only scratch the surface.

looks like the maximum of the day (and maybe the month) has finally been reached. a daily close below 3700 would be interesting
This one closes below 37 was the best thing of the day for me! It gives me a lot of hope that tomorrow will be a red day. We will see. I still hold my shorts at 3660.

Hi Jolita
thats a 10y auction ,the treasury sold 36 billion over 10 Y at that rate and they had an offer of 2.5 $ for every 1 they wanted ,I'm not sure what you mean sold and received .Thats new debt over a 10Y period at a guaranteed loss.Its not the thing moving this market.
