#speculators have been wrong-footed
#Japan ‘s #yen is struggling at 9-month lows and they are back-pedalling from their biggest bet on the currency in records stretching back almost four decades, chart @reuters.com

In addition, #speculators who had previously been riding the rally have more recently dumped their positions, with many now betting on falling prices.
This week, I talk about the rampant speculation in the stock market and how that’s a warning sign that most investors are ignoring. logicalinvestor.net/members-only... #speculation #speculators #stockmarket #stocks #investing

this is how you stabilize housing prices. #Tax the living shit out of #speculators.
#Housing should not be the realm of short term speculation. It is an injury to the entire society to allow a few schmucks to game the system to the detriment of all others.

#speculators play an outsized role given the volatility in the market. The plant itself also makes responding to price changes difficult. It takes 4y for a tree to bear fruit,

Have Natural Gas Specs Started Booking Profits?
The most net-long #naturalgas #futures #speculators since 2021 might have just started liquidating.
Can WTI Stay Above $75? Specs Tilt Toward $40 - Net-short #speculators helped to bottom WTI #crudeoil in September, the last time the price was $67 a barrel, as on March 7, but now specs are about 6% net-long of #futures open interest. @bloomberglp.bsky.social
At about 86 million ounces, the upswing in #gold #ETF holdings could be just getting started, especially if the US #stockmarket and Treasury yields continue to decline. Dropping to about 18 mo. from September's peak just above 25, net-long gold #futures #speculators have been lightening up.
RANT: having A LOT of "How much?!" reactions at present. Everything that used to be £3.50 seems to be £19.99. And most of that will be down to rampant inflation in the cost of housing, which, proving economics has a cap and bells, isn't considered inflation. And where does the money go? #speculators
Crude Oil, China Bond-Yield Trends Are Down - Just weeks into the new year, #speculators and funds pushed up #crudeoil prices and may fuel autocorrelation forces. My graphic of 200-day moving averages shows downtrends in crude and 30-year government #bond yields in the largest oil importer -- #China
Is $5 Corn the New $7? Spec Longs Match 2023 Peak - The last time #corn #speculators were stretched to 16% net-long of #futures open interest was at the start of 2023, about when the price peaked just below $7 a bushel. It's a question of what forces will make it different this time?
If US #naturalgas stays above $4, it would have recovery implications for the #energy sector and #inflation, which may emphasize an unlikely tilt. My bias is with downward reversion, especially if #futures #speculators are a guide -- at 3% of open interest, specs are the most net-long since 2022
It's a new year, which means new positions and managed money (#hedgefunds) are notably long #corn and #crudeoil. #Speculators have pushed prices to initial resistance, but is it raising the stakes for reflation or range-trade reversion? My bias is the latter, specs selling #copper could be a guide.
Copper May Have to Go Up for Reflation - The metal made a new high in 2024, but has languished since with #deflationary implications. #Futures #speculators were top drivers of last year's #copper advance, and at 13% of CME and LME open interest, they're still selling from the 32% peak
#FX: #Japan flagged its concern over sudden and one-sided moves in the FX market in its first warning to #speculators in 2025 after #yen hit its lowest level since July, chart @economics @bloomberg.com

#Speculators have not been the solution to the #HousingCrisis for 40+ years, and they aren't now. Cramped little flats that can only be had for a lifetime of crippling debt are not "affordable", and if only 93 of these are, what are the rest? #Worcester

Apart from the horrific prospect of a British President, what most concerns me about knee-jerk Royal-bashing is that it detracts attention from where the vast majority of our money is going. #speculators #moneylenders
Just disgusting how some people take advantage of housing shortages. The rich get richer while others can barely pay their rent #bcpoli #housingcrisis #RealEstate #speculators
