INVESTORS FLEE TO CASH AS UNCERTAINTY SURGES Investors are shifting back to cash in a move reminiscent of 2022, according to JPMorgan, as geopolitical tensions and policy risks rise. Strategist Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou says investors have been pulling out of equities, bonds, and gold since the Iran war began, boosting cash holdings instead. The shift reflects fears that central banks could repeat past policy mistakes, especially as energy shocks risk fueling inflation and forcing further rate hikes. Markets have already priced out expected rate cuts and are now anticipating increases in the coming months. While cash allocations have only risen modestly and remain low historically, they are still weighing on stocks and bonds. Meanwhile, equity positioning has dropped sharply from recent highs, signaling growing caution among investors.

If you feel bad about unerpeforming the market YTD. Bill Ackmans portfolio is down -8% Dev Kantasaria is down: -20% Chris Hohn is down: -11% These are estimates based on their portfolio at the start of the year.

EUROPE GAS SHOCK FROM QATAR OUTAGE European gas prices are rising as damage to Qatar’s LNG facilities cuts about 17% of its exports, with repairs possibly taking years. What was seen as a short disruption is now a multi-year supply shock, tightening global markets and pushing up long-term prices—especially for 2027. Buyers are holding back, traders are cautious, and volatility has surged. While mild weather is limiting demand for now, colder conditions could quickly drive prices higher.

TRUMP: CUT RATES NOW Jerome “Too Late” Powell is refusing to cut interest rates for no good reason. Inflation is no longer a threat, yet high rates are hurting our economy, national security, and costing America hundreds of billions in unnecessary interest. With tariffs bringing in billions and strengthening our country, the U.S. should have the lowest interest rates in the world. The Fed must substantially lower rates—now.

SEOUL NOT INFORMED OF TRUMP TARIFF HIKE South Korea said it has not received official notice from the U.S. about President Donald Trump’s plan to raise tariffs on Korean imports from 15% to 25%. The presidential office confirmed no formal communication or details have been provided. Officials will hold an interagency meeting, and Industry Minister Kim Jung-hwan plans to visit Washington to discuss the issue with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.

BILLIONAIRE WEALTH SOARS UNDER TRUMP, OXFAM WARNS The world now has over 3,000 billionaires with a combined net worth of $18.3 trillion, up 16% in 2025, according to Oxfam. The group says wealth is growing three times faster than before Trump’s return, driven by tax cuts for the rich, worsening inequality. Oxfam warns that billionaire wealth now nearly equals that of the poorest half of humanity and is increasingly translating into political power.

$NVDA CEO Jensen Huang said AI is driving the largest infrastructure buildout in human history. Rather than eliminating jobs, he argues it will create massive new employment across construction, manufacturing, energy, logistics & operations long before the software layer. Wages in these roles are already doubling

@RealPNavarro In fact, a good job, or a job in the government sector, does have its advantages, but there are significant disparities. I hope someone understands what I mean. The poor receive too few benefits from factory work and other low-paying jobs.（My Chinese friend told me...）

@its_The_Dr @elonmusk absolute

We're entering fed purgatory again where many analysts will scare people out of stocks causing the usual trip-up. It's pathetic that so many can still be shaken out of the money-machine that is the stock market, but the stentorian nature of the pessimistic chatter never fails to scare investors turning them into traders...and sellers

As I was scanning winners and losers last night i was struck by how the NON-data center industrials had some huge moves: HON, DOV, DD.. The data center was not so hot perhaps because of the brutal Micron reversal.
