$50M In, $36k Out 🤣

Someone just swapped $50,437,218 worth of USDT through CoW Swap and got $36,457 worth of AAVE back. That's a 99.9% wipeout in a single transaction.

⚠️ The reason: they weren't swapping USDT for AAVE. They were swapping aEthUSDT for aEthAAVE — the LP tokens Aave hands you when you deposit assets into its lending protocol. These aren't the underlying assets. They're position tokens with almost no liquidity between them. CoW Swap filled the order anyway...

Every Magnificent Seven Stock Is Now Down Double Digits From Its High 📉

Not one of them is holding. The entire group is in correction territory, with three of them past 20% from their peaks.

🕯 These seven stocks drove most of the S&P 500's gains over the past two years. They carried the index up and now they're dragging it down. Nearly $1 trillion was wiped off the market in today's session alone.

Why Oil Price Is So Important 🛢

Oil matters because it sits underneath much more of the economy than most people realize. It is not only gasoline. It affects transport, shipping, aviation, plastics, chemicals, packaging, farming, construction, industrial production, etc.

📈 When oil rises, moving goods gets more expensive. Diesel, jet fuel, and freight costs go up, which pushes input costs higher across supply chains. That usually feeds into broader inflation with a delay.

Oil also matters because a lot of modern materials are made from it or from chemicals produced during oil and gas refining. Plastics, synthetic fibers, solvents, lubricants, resins, cable insulation, chip packaging, adhesives, coatings, and industrial chemicals all sit somewhere in the tech and manufacturing stack.

Even sulfur matters here: most global sulfur supply comes from oil and gas refining, and sulfur is used to make sulfuric acid, which is critical for extracting copper and cobalt. That links oil not just to fuel, but to transformers, EV batteries, power infrastructure, semiconductors, data centers and so so so much more... 😮

That is why oil often matters for markets far beyond the energy sector. Higher oil can lift inflation, pressure central banks, and tighten financial conditions. Lower oil can ease cost pressure, but if it falls too fast it can also signal weakening demand and slower growth.

👉 A simple chain often looks like this: oil up → inflation up → economy slows → risk appetite fades → stocks weaken → crypto usually drops harder.

The reverse can also happen: oil down moderately → inflation cools → policy pressure eases → risk appetite improves. But if oil drops because global demand is collapsing, that is a different signal 🐻

What Is the AAII Investor Sentiment Survey 📊

The AAII Investor Sentiment Survey is a weekly poll of individual investors run by the American Association of Individual Investors. It asks a simple question: do you expect stocks to be higher, lower, or unchanged over the next 6 months. The result is published as the percentage of bulls, bears, and neutral respondents.

👀 Traders watch it because it shows how retail positioning is leaning at extremes. Very high bullish readings suggest optimism is crowded. Very high bearish readings show fear is building. On its own, it is not a timing tool, but it is useful context for market regime and sentiment stress.

Right now, the bearish share has risen to 46.4%, the highest reading since November 2025. That is well above the long-term average near 31.3%, which tells you pessimism has increased sharply in a short period 📈

This matters because the survey still has pattern value at extremes. Over the past 8 years, at the start of 3 bear markets, bearish sentiment moved above roughly 47%, and the market kept falling afterward, sometimes for months, as happened in 2022. So a high bearish reading is not automatically a buying signal just because fear is elevated.

👉 The practical use is simple. AAII helps answer whether fear is already washed out, still building, or becoming extreme. A bearish spike can mark stress, but it does not confirm the bottom by itself. It tells you sentiment is stretched, not that price is finished going down.

Here's a way to make money by reading market positioning of smart and dumb money 🔍

Hyperliquid is a fully transparent DEX, so every position and every wallet is public. Hyperdash pulls that data and sorts all traders into cohorts by all-time PnL.

📊 Extremely Profitable, Very Profitable, all the way down to Very Unprofitable and Rekt. You can see how each group is positioned right now, net long or net short.

The pattern worth paying attention to: the top cohort and the Rekt cohort are often on opposite sides of the same trade. When the best traders are long and the worst are short.

😱 Best time to check is during extreme sentiment. When everyone is euphoric or convinced it's over, go this dashboard and see where smart and dumb money actually sit.

Don't copy individual wallets and don't use this as your only input. But if your bias lines up with the top cohort and against the Rekt one, that's a decent confirmation. If you're on the same side as the losing traders, at least you know before you enter 🤷‍♀️

BTC cleared $74k overnight and even touched $76k. I opened a small short at $75,700, looking for a 4-6% move down. I'll add with DCA slowly if it keeps pushing higher 🤷‍♀️

My read is that this is a bear market rally, not a reversal. 90% confidence. Nothing has changed on the macro side, and some things have gotten way worse. The broader structure is bearish.

🔍 The 2022 chart is worth studying. While BTC was grinding down 77.5% from its ATH over more than a year, there were four separate retracements of 25-45%. Two of them lasted for months. Each one looked like a bottom of the bear market to someone.

Violent pumps are a feature of bear markets, I've talked about it in this post 👈

Claude: Anthropic's AI Assistant — What It Is and When to Use It 🤖

Claude is an LLM made by Anthropic. If you've used ChatGPT or Gemini, the idea is the same: you type a message, it responds. The difference is in how well it follows complex instructions and how rarely it makes things up.

👍 It's particularly good at writing, research, summarizing documents, and breaking down complicated topics. If you've ever had ChatGPT go off-track mid-task or give you confident but wrong answers, Claude handles both problems better on average.

There are extra tools on top of the basic chat:

🟠Artifacts let Claude generate things like charts, tables, or mini web pages that appear right inside the chat window.

🟠Skills are pre-loaded instruction sets that make Claude behave consistently for specific tasks — like always formatting research notes a certain way.

🟠Claude Code helps with programming.

🟠Cowork automates repetitive file and task work on your desktop, no coding required.

There are three model versions:

🟢Haiku is fast and lightweight.

🟢Sonnet is the default for everyday use.

🟢Opus handles heavy, complex tasks.

Free tier is available. Pro is $20/month and gives you more usage and access to stronger models 💸

Your Job Might Be More Replaceable Than You Think 🤖

🤖 Anthropic published a labor market study measuring how much AI has actually displaced workers so far.

The short answer: less than you'd think, but early signals are appearing in one specific group — workers aged 22-25 are getting hired into AI-exposed roles at a 14% lower rate than before ChatGPT launched. Not layoffs yet. Just fewer people getting in the door.

Here are the top 5 jobs most easily replaced by AI and the top 5 jobs least likely to be replaced:

Most exposed jobs today:

🔴Computer programmers

🔴Customer service reps

🔴Data entry keyers

🔴Financial analysts

🔴Telemarketers

Least exposed:

🟢Cooks

🟢Mechanics

🟢Lifeguards

🟢Bartenders

🟢Construction workers

Blue-collar work is almost entirely safe — physical presence, manual skills, zero AI penetration. White-collar office work is getting hollowed out quietly. The jobs that required years of education and pay the most are exactly the ones AI is best at automating ‼️

The data isn't theoretical anymore. Every company below cited AI as the reason for the cuts. Just in the last few months:

⏺Meta cut 16K people (21% of company)

⏺Oracle cut 30K (19%)

⏺Citigroup cutting 20K (10%)

⏺Amazon cut 30K

⏺Dell cut 11K (10%)

⏺UPS cut 30K

S&P 500 Loses Its Last Major Support 🔽

The S&P 500 dipped below its 200-day moving average for the first time since March 2025. This is the line that separates long-term uptrends from everything else.

📆 I've been saying that stock market is cooked since November. The distribution signals were there for months. Then the Iran war hit and accelerated everything.

⏺Energy prices started climbing, inflation fears returned

⏺Treasury yields spiked — 5-year above 4% for the first time since July, 10-year at 4.39%

⏺Fed cut expectations wiped out completely. Markets now pricing a 28% chance of a rate hike by October

⏺Metals got hit hardest. Silver is down 26%, Gold is down 16.5% since the start of March

I don't think 2026 will be a bullish year. This is a year for accumulation of long-term positions. Energy-driven inflation, a weakening job market, rates staying higher than expected — nothing here supports a bullish narrative.

🛒 That said, I started buying SPX-tracking ETFs today. Not because I think we've bottomed, but because these instruments go up over time as money supply grows. I plan to buy more as prices go lower.

I'll deploy even more capital if price drops into the green zone on the chart. The lower it goes, the better the entry.

🙅‍♂️ Buying crypto any time soon is a bad idea IMO. Not until there's a clear sign that stocks have bottomed and the Fed starts signaling easing again. Jumping into risk assets while the macro is still breaking is crazy.

$1,000 invested in Nvidia 10 years ago at $0.89 per share would be worth $216,800 today 😱

That's a 24,250% return — turning a four-figure investment into a life-changing amount without doing anything except not selling.

No gambling with leverage or playing zero-sum games, no options, no trying to sell the top and rebuy lower. Just hold a single stock of a great company for a decade 😨

What Are Veblen Goods 🛍

Veblen goods are products whose appeal can increase as the price increases. For normal goods, higher price reduces demand. For Veblen goods, higher price can strengthen demand because the price itself signals status, scarcity, and social rank.

This is why many people analyze them the wrong way. They look only at materials, production cost, or practical use and conclude the item is overpriced. That misses the point, because the buyer is often paying for visibility, exclusivity, brand meaning, and the ability to own something most people cannot or will not buy.

💸 A bag that looks like a basic trash bag seems worthless if you judge it only as a container. In a luxury setting, the product is not just the bag. The product is the brand, the attention, the statement, and the fact that it is absurd at a high price.

That same logic shows up in Hermès bags, Rolex and Patek watches, limited sneakers, luxury cars, art, and fine wine. In these categories, a lower price can actually weaken demand because the item loses some of its signaling power. The exclusivity matters as much as the object ❗️

This does not mean any expensive product is a Veblen good. It only applies when higher price directly adds to desirability. The key idea is simple: in some markets, price is not just a cost. It is part of the value.
