The Fed Is A Sideshow While The AI Trade Implodes | Weekly Roundup
Show notes
The AI trade is cracking and the Fed is too boxed in to help.
This week, Felix and Quinn weigh what a fracturing AI story and stalled monetary policy mean for markets heading into year end.
We explore gold breaking to new lows, implied correlations spiking, Lagarde's exit and Europe's hike pricing, Big Tech capex cuts, and why oil is ripping into the midterms. Enjoy!
