#The biggest consensus trade in the market? Short bond yields. 62% of institutional investors expect bond yields to fall, pushing bond prices higher. Just 6 months ago, only 10% of institutional investors held this view. To put this in perspective, even in 2008 and 2020, we barely saw 40% of institutional investors expect bond yields to fall. All as markets are pricing in double the amount of rate cuts compared to Fed guidance. When the majority of people hold a view, it likely means that view is priced-in. Today, the 10-year note yield is nearing 4.00% and a break higher would be huge. In addition, the expectation of interest rate cuts in the market will pose a high risk for cryptocurrencies. Do not forget that cryptocurrencies are shaped according to world markets. $BTC $ETH $BNB

A look back on 2023 in the market: Heading into this year, the average forecast showed the S&P 500 closing today at ~4,000. Currently, the index is at 4,777, just under 1% away from a new all-time high. In other words, we are approximately 20% above Wall Street's average year-end target. Interestingly, just two months ago, the S&P 500 was trading at 4,100, roughly in line with the average year-end forecast. These last two months caught institutional investors completely off guard. The unexpected change is attributed to the "Fed pivot." To succeed in the crypto markets, you can't do it without examining global markets. Follow me for more. #sp500 $BTC

Global bond index, up 9.5% in the past 2 months, marks the best gain in history, surpassing December 2008. Market futures show an additional 150 basis points in rate cut expectations since November 1st. Unprecedentedly, markets project 6 interest rate cuts in just 2 months. Bond markets erase all 2023 losses in 7 weeks. Describing this as a "Fed pivot" is an understatement. The risk for crypto and other markets lies in increased volatility, potentially impacting prices. #DXY #SP500 $BTC $ETH $BNB
