Started too late, desk on the terrace, sound may dip, mind awake.
Welcome to the quiet safe macro room.
Seekers of clear stories.
Turning noise into knowledge.
The economy is a machine.
Complicated, not mystical.

I round to whole moves.
Neutral.
Call it mauve.
I hate decimal points.
They pretend at precision.

Jobs talk is the usual racket.
Hiring, but careful.
Never mind the bollocks.
Friday has become a freakin freak show.
Heads should roll.
Pros do not trade payrolls.

Building paused.
Housing stalled.
Gimme Shelter.
We crave refuge when money bites.

Texas flickered from gloom toward less gloom.
Short bills steady.
Shutdown drama hums.
One game of egos here, another game of catastrophe over there.
You can decide which is which.

Crypto jumped.
A quiver in the black mirror.

The scoreboard ended in a pause.
Stocks flat.
Bonds flat.
Dollar flat.
Gold climbing toward a big round promise.
Oil heavy and sulking.

Electronic Arts, giant all cash take private at a full price.
Dopamine factories earn a premium.
Scarcity meets leverage.
Big money wants in.
Another platform could crash the party.
I would buy the pure play dopamine makers, not advice, just a tired man thinking aloud.

The orange can.
Pay me now, or pay me later.
First Brands chose later.
Bankruptcy.
A stress flare in private credit when spreads look paper thin.
Stories like this haunt turning points.

My brothers and sisters, I am watching you.
See what you do.
Never mind the bollocks, mind the breakouts.
Mauve day, not mayday.
The risk mirror blinked.
Dopamine factories get full price.
Pay me now, or pay me later.

Breathe like a human.
Think like an owner.
Act only when the odds are kind.
This was Acid Breath.
See you tomorrow.
