Morning Recap
Market Pulse: Silver erupted to new highs after a rare short squeeze in London vaults, while banking stocks caught a bid following robust trading revenue.
Key Movers: Silver's squeeze is stealing headlines (Silver hits all-time high as London squeeze sparks market havoc, Biztoc.com), and JPMorgan posted a Q3 beat (JPMorganChase lifts 2025 NII, expense guidance; Q3 earnings beat on strong activity, Slashdot.org), even as Dimon warns on loan-loss road bumps.
Macro & Politics: Athens finally moved farmer payments (Today, payments to farmers begin, Protothema.gr), but glitches and talk of more protests reveal EU stimulus fatigue, while the Polemis land-deal probe reminds us that political cronyism still twists markets.
What’s Next: Keep an eye on tech and industrial merger whispers and any eurozone snap vote chatter—they’ll shape risk sentiment by noon.
Unfiltered Market Commentary
Here’s what everyone’s missing: while silver's stealing the spotlight, a historic Ethereum supply squeeze (Exchange Reserves Take a hit, Triggering an Historic Ethereum Supply Squeeze, ZyCrypto) is brewing on-chain and it’ll hit like a damn sledgehammer if it triggers a liquidity event that ricochets through traditional safe havens.
Take the Polemis family probe (Today, payments to farmers begin, Protothema.gr) and Dimon’s cautious tone (Dimon Calls Out Weaker Job Market, Inflation as Provisions Rise, Slashdot.org): both show how political entanglements and inflation pressures carve into bank profits via rising loan-loss provisions. When regulators lag, capital tilts toward insiders, and that’s a free-market killer you can’t ignore.
So what do you do? Position for dislocations: trim bullion stakes as crypto yields spike, hedge European bank exposure against regulatory shocks, and watch mid-cap deal chatter for a liquidity refuge. Don’t sit back—act on these undercurrents before the herd catches on.
