Making Sense

When people hear the words *private credit stress*, they usually imagine small, struggling companies loaded with debt—businesses most investors have never heard of. They assume the damage will remain contained among risky borrowers, private-equity deals, and obscure funds. But that misses the real warning. The changing credit environment is already affecting companies perceived to be among the safest and strongest in the world.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn more about Augusta Precious Metals and what they have to offer - including physical gold for IRA accounts - by going to: https://EurodollarGold.com or text EURO to 35052. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you want to see The Four Economic Regimes, and How to Position Your Portfolio for Each One, sign up here https://eurodollar-university.com/home-page----------------------------------------------------------------------------------https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOX89C-2I_Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVFPLv6ME-Ehttps://www.cnbc.com/video/2026/07/07/amazon-plans-to-raise-25-billion-in-bond-sale-sources-say.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5qalXD-SWM.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-07-07/amazon-returns-to-us-bond-market-to-fund-ai-infrastructure-buildhttps://www.reuters.com/legal/transactional/private-credit-boom-cools-lending-flows-slow-sharply-2026-06-05/https://www.pimco.com/us/en/insights/rupture-and-resiliencehttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-07-20/billionaire-mark-walter-s-firms-probed-by-federal-prosecutorshttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDUI'll also be active on Bravais Social - a new AI-centered social network designed for professionals and knowledge workers.

The bond market just broke a major correlation at a particularly crucial moment. As the Warsh Fed sets out to stamp its mark on the market, the market is already stomping the narrative and doing so in a highly unusual way.

Is Kevin Warsh about to finally put money back in the Federal Reserve? That might sound like a strange question. After all, this is the Federal Reserve. It is supposed to be the center of the monetary system. Its officials set what they call monetary policy, testify before Congress about it, and issue statements filled with the word “monetary.” Yet, for decades, the Federal Reserve's most important policy discussions have contained no information about actual money.That may finally be starting to change.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn more about Augusta Precious Metals and what they have to offer - including physical gold for IRA accounts - by going to: https://EurodollarGold.com or text EURO to 35052. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you want to see The Four Economic Regimes, and How to Position Your Portfolio for Each One, sign up here https://eurodollar-university.com/home-page----------------------------------------------------------------------------------https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07cZsW54vO4https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/files/20260710_mprfullreport.pdfhttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDUI'll also be active on Bravais Social - a new AI-centered social network designed for professionals and knowledge workers.

The divergence between oil and gas prices is now historic, and one simple calculation explains everything. That calculation is at a record high, and it's not even close. What it shows is why gas remains so expensive and is likely to stay that way for some time even though prices have fallen substantially from their wartime peak. Even though demand for oil has plummeted, and I mean plunged in places like China, and it's not all that great elsewhere. So why are gasoline and diesel still so expensive?Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

India is once again scrambling for dollars, kind of begging for them.  After spending months defending the rupee, the Reserve Bank of India is now offering generous support to banks to get them to raise foreign-currency deposits. They're being encouraged to get creative with it, everything from creating new products to using new digital channels. And, of course, the old school way of just jacking up the interest rate offer. All designed to get dollars into Indian hands. “Begging” might be a strong word, but only barely.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn more about Augusta Precious Metals and what they have to offer - including physical gold for IRA accounts - by going to: https://EurodollarGold.com or text EURO to 35052. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you want to see The Four Economic Regimes, and How to Position Your Portfolio for Each One, sign up here https://eurodollar-university.com/home-page----------------------------------------------------------------------------------https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R03-x-Wmr7khttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrVIwKnUkBchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jCp5wnM6Ighttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NF6bNaq2hVYhttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDUI'll also be active on Bravais Social - a new AI-centered social network designed for professionals and knowledge workers.

What's the difference between recession and depression? Most people understandably think a depression is just a really bad recession. But that's not the case. These are in many ways two profoundly different circumstances. Think of it his way. A recession is a storm. A depression is a complete change in the climate. A recession is when the economy temporarily falls down. A depression is when it can't really get back, realizing the old world is gone and maybe for good. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Head to https://gamma.app/signup to check out GAMMA and start designing today!Japan may have finally figured out why the yen keeps getting crushed. And no — it's not because some hedge fund in New York borrowed a few billion yen and YOLO'd it into U.S. Treasuries. That's the cartoon version of the carry trade.

PepsiCo just reported earnings. And buried inside a perfectly standard corporate press release was one of the most important sentences you'll hear about the American economy this year. CEO Ramon Laguarta said, and I'm quoting directly here: *"I think the consumer is worse than what we had anticipated, and it's driven mainly by gas prices."*That's not a fringe analyst. That's the chief executive of one of the largest consumer goods companies on the planet, a company that sells beverages and snacks to hundreds of millions of Americans every single quarter, telling you directly: something has changed.

HSBC just did something that should make everyone in credit markets stop and ask one very uncomfortable question. If there is nothing to worry about with private credit…why is one of world's biggest banks pulling back from funding the funds that make it work? According to reporting from the Financial Times, HSBC has told some private credit borrowers that it will not renew their credit facilities. It is also refusing to provide “back leverage” to riskier funds. In plain English, HSBC is pulling back bigtime.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

This is great news for consumers who have been hit with the gasoline shock. Here we have the biggest retailer in America lowering prices. The real story, though, is why Walmart is doing it.

We just got a couple major updates that are connect some more dots on what is the biggest story in the global economy, all connecting to China. The oil market has undergone a radical – and I mean radical – change over the past few weeks. It first showed up last Thursday and is still going her today. Earlier this morning, Saudi Arabia comes out with a big announcement it is cutting the benchmark price of its oil for the first time since 2020. Those two together implicate Chinese oil demand and therefore its economy. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Today, we're looking at one of the most intense and surprising signals coming out of global markets right now: the oil curve has gone almost perfectly flat. That may sound technical, but it is a huge development. In a normal shortage environment, especially after the kind of historic supply disruption and record backwardation we just saw, near-term oil should trade at a sustained premium. Instead, in the space of just weeks, that curve has collapsed, twisting into a shape that is on the cusp of saying there's too much oil.Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn more about Augusta Precious Metals and what they have to offer - including physical gold for IRA accounts - by going to: https://EurodollarGold.com or text EURO to 35052. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Webinar June 2026: Why Smart Investors Keep Missing Every Major Economic Turning PointIt isn't that they're buying the wrong assets.

European banks are doing something that looks irrational, preparing for something big while the rest of the mainstream focuses on the wrong people. The European Central Bank just raised its policy rate a few weeks ago, and officials over there in Frankfurt are warning they may hike again as they're still fixated on the inflation risk from the recent energy shock. The European banking system is not buying it, the inflation risk, the rate hikes, none of it.

Bitcoin just broke down again — falling below $60k to levels we haven't seen in nearly two years. But here's the strange part: this may not really be a Bitcoin story. Because if you pull up the chart of BlackRock you start to see something unexpected. Bitcoin and BlackRock stock haven't just been moving in the same general direction…they've been tracking each other in a way that looks a lot less like coincidence, and a lot more like a shared warning signal.Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

When most people hear the words “free market capitalism,” they immediately think of Wall Street. They picture stock traders yelling across a trading floor, financial news channels, quarterly earnings reports, and various asset prices flashing across a screen. And because that is the image people have in their heads, they often assume that capitalism means whatever happens in financial markets. Not even close. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you have a retirement account and you've been wondering whether crypto belongs inside it, BlockTrustIRA is something worth looking into.

Gold is getting liquidated again. Silver, too. Why? The dollar is spiking. But why is the dollar spiking? Same reason TIPS are screaming and reinversion on the Treasury curve has become a very real possibility. The issue isn't those da*n dots, it's dollars. Ledger eurodollars and all these are nothing more than different perspectives of the same growing deflation tendencies. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Webinar June 2026: Why Smart Investors Keep Missing Every Major Economic Turning PointIt isn't that they're buying the wrong assets.

The most important number in private credit right now is not a default rate. It's not a dividend yield or the size of the market. It's **16.8%**. That is how much of Apollo Debt Solutions' outstanding shares investors asked the firm to buy back in the second quarter. The reason that number is such a big deal is because last quarter, redemption requests were already high at around **11%**.So this is not fading or stabilizing.

Britain just lost another prime minister. Keir Starmer, the man who came to power in 2024 with one of the biggest election victories in modern British history, resigned today after less than two years in office.

Swiss bond yields are almost back at zero. The key two-year instrument yields just a couple of basis points and is very likely going to be negative again relatively soon. As we know, Swiss interest rates have very little to do with Switzerland. As a global money center, this is where money goes when it doesn't want to be anywhere else – even to the point international financials are willing to accept zero return to be there. Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre-------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you have a retirement account and you've been wondering whether crypto belongs inside it, BlockTrustIRA is something worth looking into.

Something very strange is happening in global markets and in particular one key eurodollar signal that hardly anyone pays much attention to. Everywhere you look, investors are acting like the party is back on. U.S. stocks are surging. Tech stocks are ripping. Semiconductors are 1999-ing it right now. But then there is Hong Kong. Its main stock index, the Hang Seng is not joining the celebration. It's going in the opposite direction and has for some time now. That's big because HK is a major Asian money center for not just mainland China. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Oil prices are down big. And if you only looked at the headline, the explanation seems obvious: Iran peace deal, supply normalization, geopolitical risk premium coming out. Except that is not what the market is really saying. Or should I say markets plural. There is a lot going on across various curves that shed a very different light on the crude plunge. Big changes in Treasuries, huge, huge shift in TIPS, more than you'd think, and of course oil prices themselves. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you have a retirement account and you've been wondering whether crypto belongs inside it, BlockTrustIRA is something worth looking into.

Most people think they understand the dollar. When the dollar goes up, they think that means America is strong. Good economy. Good policy. Maybe the Federal Reserve is doing a good job and investors are “choosing America.” And when the dollar goes down, they think that must be bad. Inflation. Debasement. Money printing.

India is now being forced to ration diesel fuel for the first time maybe ever. At the same time, global stocks of crude oil are at their lowest since 2003. Even inventories here in the US have been drained to levels we haven't witnessed in 20 years.

The European Central Bank just raised rates on Thursday into an economy that is already shrinking. That sentence should sound familiar, because Europe has done this before. Not once. Twice. The two questions we now want to ask are, first, whether the ECB's action will pull others including the Fed into this rate hiking gambit. Second, how long could they hang on hawking before they have to turn around. And what can the markets tell us about both. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------If you have a retirement account and you've been wondering whether crypto belongs inside it, BlockTrustIRA is something worth looking into.

Bond yields rose sharply on Friday, but why? What you'll hear is that inflation and a strong economy will force the Fed to hike. But that's only half true – the possibility of the rate hike. All the rest of it, not so much. Both markets and American consumers agree wholeheartedly on all of it. In fact, on Friday, inflation expectations in Treasuries dropped to their lowest levels since early March. Yeah, lowest since the start of the conflict and they were never high to begin with.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn more about Augusta Precious Metals and what they have to offer - including physical gold for IRA accounts - by going to: https://EurodollarGold.com or text EURO to 35052. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------https://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

Europe is preparing its public for something it has tried to avoid for years: a trade fight with China. While all eyes are on Iran and oil, the energy shock is only adding more urgency to a brewing economic battle between two of the world's biggest markets.

Blackstone's flagship private credit fund just did something it had never done before. Investors tried to pull out about 10% of the fund's shares. Blackstone finally and for the first time ever said, NO. The $79 billion Blackstone Private Credit Fund, known as B-CRED, told shareholders it would only allow 5% of shares to be redeemed. And this is where the story gets uncomfortable.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

The private credit bust is no longer staying inside private credit. Investors are now pulling money out of a major Swiss private **equity** fund. As the guy once said, this is a big f-ing deal. For months, the story was supposed to be contained. A few private credit funds had redemption pressure. A few non-traded BDCs had to limit withdrawals. Some flighty investors supposedly misunderstood the liquidity terms. The industry's defense was simple: this is not a credit crisis. This is just a liquidity education problem.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn more about Augusta Precious Metals and what they have to offer - including physical gold for IRA accounts - by going to: https://EurodollarGold.com or text EURO to 35052. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fresh Investor Retreat Reignites Debate on Private Credit Peakhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2026-06-03/fresh-investor-exits-test-private-credit-faithfulPartners Caps Evergreen Fund Redemptions as Requests Risehttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-06-03/partners-group-gates-evergreen-fund-as-redemption-requests-riseWeakest BDCs' Bonds Risk Downgrade to Junk Within Six Monthshttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-29/weakest-bdcs-bonds-risk-downgrade-to-junk-within-six-monthsCliffwater Private Credit Fund Stung by 17% Redemption Requestshttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-06-02/cliffwater-private-credit-fund-stung-by-17-redemption-requestshttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDUI'll also be active on Bravais Social - a new AI-centered social network designed for professionals and knowledge workers.

European banks are doing something that looks irrational. The European Central Bank is increasingly likely to raise its short-term policy rates again. Oil prices are still elevated. Energy costs are feeding into headline inflation. ECB officials keep coming on hawkish. And normally, if you believe short-term rates are going higher, the last thing you're going to do is rush into government bonds. But European banks are doing exactly that. And in huge amounts. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------If you have a retirement account and you've been wondering whether crypto belongs inside it, BlockTrustIRA is something worth looking into.

After all, in yesterday's video, steve and I showed you the income data that looks just like a recession. The energy shock is turning into something bigger. It is hitting consumers through gasoline and utility bills. It is hitting businesses through transportation, plastics, chemicals, shipping, and margins. It is hitting importers through their trade balances. And because oil is priced in dollars, we also have to consider the dollar part of this. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysishttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDUI'll also be active on Bravais Social - a new AI-centered social network designed for professionals and knowledge workers.

Canada just “unexpectedly” fell into a technical recession. But the important part is not just that Canada contracted. The important part is that Canada's contraction is lining up with the same weakness now spreading through France, the UK, Germany, Sweden, Mexico, and increasingly the rest of the global system. As one result, central bankers hawkishness is starting to seriously evaporate.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn more about Augusta Precious Metals and what they have to offer - including physical gold for IRA accounts - by going to: https://EurodollarGold.com or text EURO to 35052. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------https://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDUStarting today, I'll also be active on Bravais Social - a new AI-centered social network designed for professionals and knowledge workers.

For the first time in this cycle, the money going out of major private credit vehicles has surpassed the money coming in. That is the headline, how private credit machine is now facing sustained investor outflows. Stage 2. And here's the other big part of that – these net outflows are indeed forcing asset sales onto an industry that was never really built for this. That means we're already deeper into Stage 2 than most people would think.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn more about Augusta Precious Metals and what they have to offer - including physical gold for IRA accounts - by going to: https://EurodollarGold.com or text EURO to 35052. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Private Credit BDC Redemptions Exceed Fundraising for First Timehttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-14/private-credit-bdc-redemptions-exceed-fundraising-for-first-timePrivate Credit's Unthinkable Becomes Reality as Trading Revs Uphttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-21/private-credit-s-unthinkable-becomes-reality-as-trading-revs-upFitch Ratings' U.S. Private Credit Default Rate Hits a High of 6.0% in April 2026https://www.fitchratings.com/research/corporate-finance/fitch-ratings-us-private-credit-default-rate-hits-high-of-6-0-in-april-2026-18-05-2026?cs=0&hl=en-US&biw=1600&bih=731Private Credit Fund Touts Quick Profit Buying Debt at 65 Centshttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-05/private-credit-fund-touts-quick-profit-buying-debt-at-65-centsGoldman Sachs Private Credit Fund's Share of Bad Loans Riseshttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-07/goldman-sachs-private-credit-fund-s-share-of-bad-loans-increasesHSBC Drags Feet on $4 Billion Private Credit Investment Efforthttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-15/hsbc-drags-feet-on-4-billion-private-credit-investment-effortAMP Trims ‘Frothy' Private Credit Assets in Investment Pivothttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-18/amp-trims-frothy-private-credit-assets-in-investment-pivothttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

While rumors and reports swirl about a possible Iran deal, the clock is still ticking for an economy that's way too close to the point of no return on the energy shock. In fact, for Europe, there is a nontrivial chance it's already gone past. With the latest data out on Friday, the economic numbers for May so far got slammed. It increasingly looks like Europe may have already gone over the cliff with S&P describing France as in a quote “dire” situation.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------What is a Eurodollar University membership?

The dollar is rising again, and this time the pressure is showing up right across Asia. The Japanese yen is weak.  The South Korean won is tumbling.  The Indonesian rupiah is crashing. The Indian rupee keeps finding new ways to give officials fits. At the same time the dollar is rising against these Asian currencies, the very front of the U.S. dollar interest-rate market is doing something absolutely incredible. Shocking even. Completely the opposite of what you'd think. And here's the thing – these two developments are related.
