Asian markets ROCKED by chip curbs

No holiday for stock traders today ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ The bond markets are closed but we're in full swing as the markets open today in a volatile environment. Despite the Fed pushing interest rate increases - and with plenty more to come - it's likely core inflation will continue to swell. Allianz Chief Economic Adviser Mohamed El-Erian predicted that core inflation "is still going up." The good news is that it is going to come down... eventually. The bad news, as he puts it, is whether it comes down "with a slowdown in the economy or a major recession." That's a heck of a choice... Futures are down heading into this morning. And we should remember that core inflation excludes food and energy... both of which are probably heading up. Energy especially is going to be troublesome. The relationship between the United States and Saudi Arabia has essentially been broken and oil prices are nearing $100 a barrel again. The main thing holding them back is the possibility of a recession and lowering demand. And yet the American economic picture still remains better than most other nations. The US has managed to pull the entire European Union behind its economic and geopolitical agenda. Russia and Iran are suffering crises that could endanger the very survival of their regimes. Ukraine just struck a devastating blow to Russian military ambitions in the south of the country. Still, the American economic situation is perilous... The Fed's balancing act of trying to stop inflation while not pushing the country into recession appears to be failing. The fact that we have it better off than the rest of the world is little comfort. This is going to be a wild week, with a host of critical market indicators including the Consumer Price Index, major banks reporting, retail sales data, and more statements from Fed officials on inflation. No holiday for us today. It's a hot landing zone, so be ready to hit the ground guns blazing. Keep Moving, Any strategy that makes you money consistently is worthwhile.
