TLT trade ideas

Bond Meltup IncomingInterest rates are going to continue to move up to help drain the excess liquidity in the system. TGA will spend the last of its money in the form of a stimulus package, then we will see a great reversal on the dollar and interest rates, as cashflow continues to dry up, banks too scared to loan to each other (and therefore not make consumer and commercial loans), and money continues to move from consumerism to savings accounts. Put simply, illiquidity in the system, and raising interest rates will lead to a smackdown to near-zero again, maybe even negative, to prevent a major shock to the system. Looking to buy more TLT dips this year. I think the meltup will begin with bank insolvency.

The Mother Of All Bets (MOAB)With the financial world turned upside down people are looking for vulnerabilities within the system. Let me direct your eyes to the long end of the bond curve. Stress is already apparent in the repo market and funds are beginning to unwinding left and right. If you look at cot data on the long end of the bond curve specifically the 30-year you will notice that shorts have piled in to the highest level they have in all of history. This virtuous cycle was created in the anticipation that the Fed would spark inflation. Spoiler alert they didn't. With the dollar beginning to reverse I feel now is the time to go long the long end and expect for financial conditions to tighten as the demand for cash spikes.

TLT/XLF: Banks don't like what they smell.Banks are the best indicator of the financial health of the market. Analysis: TLT/XLF is flashing warning signs if banks fail to make new highs. Banks are being incredibly stingy with their money lending and low interest rates are not helping their profitability. Banks are sitting on Mr.Powells printed money. I am not seeing a lot of strength in the banking sector as, they have failed to follow other asset classes. XLF has failed to break its March highs which, is very concerning. Looking back at history, when TLT rises faster than XLF, it is a bad sign for markets and an indicator of systemic risk. The ratio of TLT/XLF at this level has been a major support zone. Additionally, there was a very strong reversal. TLT is experiencing heavy buying volume and is reversing the down trend from March. The 2008 and 2020 market crashes occurred from these levels. Banks are acting very sheepish as, the smell the wolf (DXY) coming. Dollars are needed to pay off debts....Liquidity crisis? Opinion: A ticking time bomb, it's not a matter of if but, when. I am positioning myself away from this bomb an extra 10%-20% gains in equity is not worth a 40% risk, everyone has been so conditioned to buy the dip, it makes me wary to follow the flock. I am still long equities to an extent but, TLT is my biggest position. Please don't let my analysis get in the way from you buying GME,AMC,NOK,BB or FAANG. This is just the smoke alarm going off signaling a fire in the vicinity and I am telling people "Hey look over there". I truly do wish the best for everyone on WSB and the new wave of retail traders with limited understanding of markets hoping to make a quick buck. I just hope they aren't risk more than they are willing to lose.

TLT: The new suitor in town; With his wingman the Yield CurveThe dollar starting to rally should be very concerning for speculators in risk assets. The bond market has been heavily shorted and a short squeeze might be in order here. Look at how they bought a the rips and sold the dips since April. Back in January of last year we saw this same price action. The CTA are gonna start buying if we see the bottom hold that would be proof. This past week we saw the bond auctions have surprisingly good numbers with primary and indirect buyers showing enthusiasm for bonds. This might be the catalyst that has shorts exiting their positions. Bonds will now revert back to their natural flow and go up due to the tight financial conditions. Banks still need lower interest rates to give them a better incentive to lend (M2 - M1). We see this in January when the bond market started to settle and the CTAs started to buy in. The market is not expecting low interest rates because commodities have risen recently but this will most likely not continue. Why is Gold falling with Dollar, it tells you something fishy is happening. Yield Curve: the yield curve is the 10 year minus the two year maturity rates. Retail traders don’t ever look at it but, it’s telling a story. The Ten year yield is not going to go up as fast as, the two year. The two year is headed to zero. This is going to drive the yield curve up even more. Let’s not forget a rising yield curve has predicted every recession. Ciao!!
