Market Structure is Distorting Reality as Inflation Builds | Weekly Roundup
About this episode
The episode discusses the instability in markets due to inflation and geopolitical risks, highlighting the disconnect between headlines and actual capital flows.
Markets appear frozen, but under the surface, positioning shifts and macro pressures suggest something far more unstable is unfolding. We’re back with the trio dissecting market structure, geopolitical risks, and the growing disconnect between headlines and actual capital flows. We dig into extreme hedging, volatility-driven moves, inflation from energy shocks, rotation into real assets, and looming credit stress that could force unconventional policy responses. Enjoy!
