The Farce Is Complete: Stocks Soar Most In 4 Years As US Job Market Disintegrates

Friday, October 2, 2015 14:10

(Before It's News)

We suspect more than a few traders will need this tonight…

First things first, we have this…

Chinese stocks (trading in US) rose 6.5% today – the biggest day since May 2010:

And this  -Today saw an epic squeeze of shorts – “most shorted” surged 5% off the opening lows which is the largest swing we could find on record

And finally this: Today was the biggest intraday reversal higher in The Dow since 2011

Thanks to this…

With cash indices all ramped into green for the day:

But there was only one thing driving US equities today… USDJPY, which got the momo going:


And a collapse in VIX finished it off:

And US equities (except Small Caps) were ramped all the way into the green for the week, even Trannies

But credit was not buying it at the end:

Away from the silliness in stocks, everything else was 'silly' too:

Treasuries soared at the payrolls print with yields collapsing and flattening across the curve… before Europe closed and the Treasury selling was unleashed…

But remained lower on the week:

The USD was crushed lower after payrolls but bid back to the moon alice after Europe closed:

Commodities were very mixed on the week but industrials soared later in the day after precious metals exploded on payrolls data:

But Silver (up 6%) was the big winner from Payrolls:

And here is crude on the week… testing and failing at the week's close…ramping today onthe rig count dcline after tumbling after payrolls

The bottom line – The Pure-Play QE Trade is back on… but be careful what you wish for because of reflexivity…
