Chinese stocks are heading into orbit, taking off like a rocket ever since the US and China reached an agreement to not inflict the worst of trade wars. Curiously, though, the Chinese economy has further deteriorated which means the equity surge is looking more and more like something we've seen before from Shanghai.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------Eurodollar University's One Big Weekly Themehttps://eurodollaruniversity.substack.com/---------------------------------------------------------------------------Bloomberg China Stocks Are Sending Warning Signs on Liquidity-Driven Rallyhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-08-25/china-stocks-are-sending-warning-signs-on-liquidity-driven-rallySCMP 4 reasons fears of China stock market bubble are misplacedhttps://www.scmp.com/opinion/china-opinion/article/3323431/four-reasons-fears-china-stock-market-bubble-are-misplacedhttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

Once Federal Reserve policymakers start making total sense, that's when you know. Officials are seeing the data the same way(s) we are, meaning a mess in jobs combined with an absence of any sign for tariff inflation.

Two-year Treasury yields set a new almost-year low, falling below their prior April chaos lows.

Consumer fears over jobs increased yet again in August, as did expectations for a recession. Relatedly, two separate sources confirmed housing prices in the US fell yet again in their latest monthly estimates.

France's government is going to collapse again in a couple weeks. While everyone was distracted by trade wars, the underlying schism in politics remained unresolved. France is between a rock and a hard place, trying to fix its budget.

Emmet Sheehan dominated for seven scoreless innings and Andy Pages put runs on the board every time he came to the plate as the Los Angeles Dodgers shut out the Reds, 7-0. Elsewhere, the Mariners beat the Padres and the Mets beat the Phillies, so the Dodgers gained ground in both the NL West division race and the race for a first-round postseason bye. All in all, it was a very good night for the Dodgers and Dodger fans, and Jeff Snider is here to talk all about it. Tube in all season long! Leave a voicemail or text the Friend of the Show hotline!

Something has changed in China. Something big. Bank lending dropped sharply, more than it has. Fixed investment suddenly crashed. Retail sales contracted in a way China hasn't experienced since 2022's lockdowns. The usual economic and financial decay has been taken up a notch, if not two. So, naturally, Chinese stocks are soaring, one final negative signal. Yes, negative.Eurodollar University Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

The Los Angeles Dodgers once again scored only one run, once again on an Alex Freeland solo home run. Tyler Glasnow struggled with his command and four Padres walks came around to score, but without any offense, the Dodgers weren't going to win this game. LA now finds itself in the position of needing a win on Sunday to salvage one game in the series and pull back into a tie with San Diego, but they'll have their work cut out for them with Padres ace Nick Pivetta on the mound.

There were several key points from Jay Powell's speech at Jackson Hole which everyone seems to have missed. The market picked up on them, however, with SOFR futures reacting by pushing its inversion deeper and further out, now early 2027. What Chair Powell meant under everything he said was he finally gets the big Beveridge risk.  Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I'm excited to share something I've negotiated for you guys: you can now get a Glint Card for FREE (normally $10) just by registering with my code ‘SNIDER' or filling out the form on the page I've linked below.All the details and more about Glint are at https://partner.glintpay.com/eurodollar/.

Jay Powell vs. Ronald McDonald? The FOMC yesterday published the minutes of its July meeting which showed a majority of officials believe inflation is the country's greatest threat. So, it was a huge shock when the world's biggest fast-food joint reported - ON THE SAME DAY - it was doing the opposite. Even the FOMC "majority" isn't as solid as it is made to appear, as the minutes also contained one observation that really does align with these real economy facts. 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.

What if everything you thought about the dollar was wrong? Monetary historian Jeff Snider joins Bankless to deliver a radical thesis: the Federal Reserve doesn't control the U.S. dollar; a sprawling offshore system of interbank ledger money does. This hidden network, known as the Eurodollar system, is the real engine of global finance, and it's been breaking down for over 15 years. In this episode, we unpack how Eurodollars work, why the Fed lost control, the eerie similarities between stablecoins and shadow banking, and why Jeff sees a “Silent Depression,” masked by asset booms but driven by deflationary forces. If you've been bullish on crypto because of debasement fears, Jeff's counter-narrative might challenge everything you believe. ---

Shohei Ohtani pitched four innings, allowing just one run that wasn't his fault and striking out eight batters. On the offensive side, Ohtani hit a huge two-run homer to give the Dodgers the lead. What a great day, right? Unfortunately, Ohtani's LA teammates weren't able to put much else together offensively, and the defense was sloppy in ways that led directly to multiple runs. In the end, the Dodgers lost the game and the series to the Cardinals in frustrating fashion. Jeff Snider and Kevin Skinner talk about the Dodgers finally experiencing a little bit of the Tungsten-Arm O'Doyle curse and the offense feeling the effect of Max Muncy being out of the lineup.
