11.20.23 "Do I Wanna Know?" If There's Something on My Teeth
------------------------
Have you got color on your screens? Do you ever get that fear that you can’t shift your trade, that sticks around like something in your teeth?
Illiquidity and short squeezes live. The 10 yr yield takes a breath between 4.60 and 4.30, and a breakout by Thanksgiving looks unlikely.
But is a storm brewing after the turkey is gone? OPEC+ meets on Sunday, 11/26, and may rain on the Bond Bull parade. With Oil down 18% in less than eight weeks, will Oil producers put the brakes on production? Will Oil prices move and shift rates out of neutral?(Do Eyes Wanna Know?) Do we want trades Crawling back to null?
