The dollar is making another big move higher to the point it is causing governments and central banks around the world to respond and even intervene to keep their own currencies from crashing against it. Fears over the global economic downturn are driving monetary tightness and demand for safety at the expense of those at the forefront of the broad decline.

We have a couple more names to add to our fast-growing list of shadow banking casualties. And, yes, collateral is once again the common theme. One of them is of course in subprime auto financing, but that's just another canary in the credit coalmine. The other has been accused of fabricating half a billion of collateral invoices. Half a billion.

After a truly epic run, precious metals are now getting pounded. Both gold and silver are down the past few days for a couple of reasons, not that this is a surprise. In fact, I told you just six days ago this was the most likely short run path for the metals. So, what's driving the selloff and does it change the long run outlook for either?

There was action yet again at the Fed's repo window today. A few more billion borrowed. But that's now the fourth time over the last five trading days. These are more signs of tightening monetary conditions and if this does continue it will lead to the next QE from the Fed. The word that keeps coming up the past few months is escalation.

Why is copper-to-gold so ugly and thoroughly deflationary? What's happening right now inside China is one key part of it. After a small artificial rebound earlier this - where have we heard that before - Chinese bank lending has fallen even more sharply this summer adding yet another layer to the tremendous deceleration we keep seeing across China this summer. Retail sales fell yet again and investment is crashing. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisIn a world where markets swing on every headline, focus matters.

Even I am surprised at how quickly this has escalated. We got a big-time warning from the oil market earlier in the week. Whenever we see these things show up, usually there's a little back and forth, in and out, the thing starts out as a little blip and stays that way for awhile. Then, maybe, you get a bigger move much later on. Not this time. The oil curve blew way past all of that in just a few days.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.

Two US regional banks rocked the markets with more potential loan losses tied to private credit and shadow banks. But it is NOT really about them or the scale of those defaults; they are relatively tiny. It's what continues to be uncovered, the common COLLATERAL thread in every single one so far. Combined with a very precarious macroeconomic and monetary background, it's explosive.

Silver has gone absolutely vertical, even more than gold has. There is an historic squeeze going on in the silver market, centered in London. It started out driven by gold but the whole thing has been upended by imbalances in supply and the locations from where demand is coming from. How far can silver go? What's really going on with it? And what should we expect next? Why does the matter for a whole lot more than the precious metals market?

With one quote, JP Morgan's CEO Jamie Dimon created a mini-firestorm even if in this case, anyway, he was just saying what everyone is thinking. On JPMs earnings call yesterday, Dimon reportedly said, “I probably shouldn't say this but when you see one cockroach there are probably more” in relation to the bankruptcies that have popped up recently.

A big signal we - and the whole market - have been waiting for was triggered. Better still, there is no ambiguity with this one. The oil curve has flipped for the first time in years in what is a very clear downturn signal. They call it a supply glut when there is no mistaking it's all about demand.
It's not just the $2.3 billion that allegedly simply vanished; it's how and maybe most important of all, why. Second guessing collateral this way does not end well. Especially since this does not appear to be a one-off case of embezzlement and outright theft, rather a relatively large company which made some bad choices pressured into doing so by the economy and given the opportunity by less than ideal protections and security.

The growing macro bust in housing has become serious enough even the Fed is letting the public know officials are talking about it. I keep telling you that when central bankers see it too, you know it isn't good. The Federal Reserve's policymaking body, the FOMC, released the minutes of its meeting last month, the one where policymakers decided to dip back into the Pringles can with a single twenty five-bp rate cut.

Another major central bank panicked today into a 50 bps rate cut, just as markets have been predicting. Not only that, officials at that bank said they're ready for more as ultra-low rates are back within reach already. The Pringles can is far from empty even though central banks around the world would like you to believe they are in a good place.

Add it all up, and Game 3 of the NLDS went to the Phillies, so the Dodgers will try again to win the series on Thursday afternoon.

Repo fails have jumped to more than $320 billion as of the final full week in September, the highest since the very start of January. More importantly, the timing. While there are technical reasons for rising fails, they have been increasing since the first week in August, right when the July payroll report came out. There's also been substantial selling of foreign reserve assets, an enormous amount which likewise is timed to the release of payroll estimates.

On paper, Wednesday's NLDS Game 5 between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Philadelphia Phillies is a mismatch in LA's favor. Superstar starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto goes up against struggling former ace Aaron Nola, and the Dodgers are already up 2-0 in the series. But the games aren't played on paper, so the Dodgers will need to show up in a big way to make it official. Jeff Snider is here to talk about the upcoming Game 3, including the news that Max Muncy and Will Smith should be back in the starting lineup. We also look back a bit on Game 2 because people in the chat still want to talk about Blake Treinen, and then we talk about Justin Dean's defense, for some reason? And so much more!

OPEC this past weekend agreed to raise production into a falling market, putting it on the edge of confirming a major worldwide downturn. This is why, despite the crude cartel not increasing supply as much as feared, oil prices didn't really react. There are far greater problems plaguing the energy markets, including tightening dollar conditions which go right along with this major market warning.

These recent bankruptcies have garnered close attention from the marketplace because they represent the very real possibility serious cracks have already weakened credit markets...to the point even the stock market (part of it, anyway) is taking a hard look. Ally, Bread Financial, Affirm, even Capital One, they've all see their stocks plummet. There's more here than it seems because of all the noise about share indexes and their own record highs. Everyone has ignored job losses, until now that is.

Like Amazon, now Walmart and Target are holding similar “fall” savings events promising to offer big savings. All three of them know the consumer economy is in deep trouble, thus the overemphasis on savings. But it's not just what these retailers are doing for customers, it's what they aren't doing for workers. According to a range of sources, including the retailers themselves, they are not hiring.

Money from around the world continues to pour into Swiss bond markets, driving yields there down below zero and keeping them that way. Because Switzerland remains a key global money center in the eurodollar world, this kind of heightened demand for safety is directly related to rising worries about the rest of the world.

This week has seen one oil company after another announce major layoffs. The oil curve is within sight of flipping and wholesale gasoline prices are only a penny above their lowest since 2021. Why? The answer was all over ADP's private payroll report for September.

Was this a replay of last night's Dodgers/Reds game? Dominant starting pitching, this time from Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Ulcer-inducing relief pitching, this time mostly at the hands of Emmet Sheehan. And an offensive explosion, this time fueled by Mookie Betts and his four hits. Oh, and a reliever who has struggled at times this year looked great closing out the game, this time Roki Sasaki. And just like last night, Los Angeles doubled the Reds' score, winning 8-4 to sweep the Wild Card Series and set up a date in Philadelphia with the A.L. East champion Phillies.

The latest report on jobs changes everything. The hiring rate in August dropped to its lowest level since April of 2020. April 2020. It's another clear sign that the labor market is visiting Dr. Beveridge and right in time for Amazon Prime Days which begin a week from now. Consumer confidence fell sharply here for September in even more new data, with workers reporting they also feel job availability is at a multi-year low, so it's not just in the high level data, this thing is also making waves on the ground.

Shohei Ohtani and Teoscar Hernandez each homered twice, Tommy Edman added a homer of his own, and Blake Snell was dominant for seven innings as the Dodgers beat the Reds, 10-5, in Game 1 of the National League Wild Card Series. How did the Reds score five runs if Snell was so dominant, you ask? Well, you see, the Los Angeles bullpen was involved, so of course it wasn't as easy as we would have liked. Alex Vesia struggled, Edgardo Henriquez was terrible, and the Reds put up a fight in the eighth inning. Luckily, it was too little, too late, and the Dodgers complete the win.

The Dodgers made some interesting roster moves, leaving both Anthony Banda and Michael Conforto off the roster and including Hyeseong Kim and Justin Dean.

The Los Angeles Dodgers shut out the DBacks to clinch another National League West title. Yoshinobu Yamamoto capped off an amazing season with six scoreless innings, the bullpen was lights out, and LA got huge hits from Freddie Freeman (two homers), Shohei Ohtani (his 54th homer), Andy Pages (home run), and Mookie Betts (two-out, two-run single to break the game open early). Now the Dodgers head to Seattle for a relatively meaningless series against the Mariners. Clint Pasillas and Jeff Snider talk about what they're looking to see from individual players in this series.
