Overnight

Currencies and stock markets were battered by the weekend announcements. Canadian Dollar, Mexican Peso and China Yuan obviously. The Aussie was collateral damage.

Gold fell as well. A crash is where everything goes down. A reallocation is where one asset is hammered and another benefits.

Thus far looks like a crash.

US index futures are currently backing this up.

I cleaned up a very messy chart. Bitcoin smoked but still in the megaphone formation marked in orange.The lower orange line connects the 2 highs in 2021. Looks like price has tagged it.
