This was one of the most violent crypto flushes in years. Bitcoin plunged to $60,000, a 17% intraday collapse that ranks among the 10 worst drops in BTC history. More than $2.4 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated in 24 hours, pushing Fear & Greed readings to levels last seen during the FTX collapse. BlackRock's IBIT ETF recorded its highest trading volume ever, while Strategy shares sank after posting a $12 billion Q4 loss. Traditional markets also struggled, but the damage was far more contained. The S&P 500 fell 1.2%, the Nasdaq slipped 1.6%, and software stocks remain under heavy pressure amid AI disruption fears. U.S. layoff announcements surged to their highest January level since 2009. Overseas, Asia closed mostly lower, Europe fared better, and one rare positive headline emerged as U.S.–Iran negotiations began in Oman, easing geopolitical stress.

Markets are deep in risk-off mode as crypto winter tightens its grip. The ECB and Bank of England both held rates, with the BoE signaling it may be nearing the end of its easing cycle. UK political turmoil hit the pound, while tech stocks continued to unravel — AMD plunged 17%, Qualcomm disappointed, and Alphabet slid after announcing a massive increase in AI spending. Precious metals saw extreme volatility again, with silver crashing 15%, gold slipping, and oil falling after the U.S. and Iran agreed to hold talks. In macro data, German factory orders surged, but Eurozone retail sales fell, raising concerns about consumer demand. In crypto, Bitcoin dropped to $69,000, pushing the market back into Extreme Fear. Bhutan appears to be selling BTC it has mined since 2019, ETH hovered near $2,000, and scrutiny intensified around Trump-linked World Liberty Financial. CME also hinted it may explore issuing its own token.

Welcome back to the markets after a brutal weekend. Gold just had its worst day since 1983, crashing 9%, while silver fell a staggering 27%—the largest drop ever recorded. Add to that steep declines in copper and oil, and we've got the recipe for a volatile open. Meanwhile, Asian equities got crushed, with the KOSPI down 5%, and China's manufacturing PMI missed badly. In Europe, green shoots: France and the UK posted surprise PMI gains, while Germany's retail sales shocked to the upside. In crypto, BTC fell to $74K before rebounding, with more than $5.5B in liquidations since Thursday. Regulatory talks begin today at the White House, while Ripple secures a full EU license. The week is off to a chaotic start—catch the full breakdown inside.

Markets were hit with a surge of volatility after President Trump confirmed Kevin Warsh as his nominee for Fed Chair, raising fresh uncertainty around U.S. monetary policy. The VIX jumped as much as 13%, fueled further by shutdown risk and escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran. U.S. equities sold off sharply, led by Microsoft's worst session since 2020, wiping out more than $350 billion in market value. Meanwhile, Europe offered a rare bright spot as Eurozone GDP beat expectations, unemployment fell to a record low, and Spain led growth. Precious metals saw extreme reversals after a scorching run — silver plunged 15%, gold dropped as much as 8%, yet remained on track for its best monthly performance since 1982. In crypto, Bitcoin fell to $81,000, marking its worst streak of monthly losses since 2018, triggering $1.8B in liquidations. Binance announced it would convert $1B of stablecoins into BTC, offering a rare vote of confidence. A packed, volatile session — all the key facts, no spin.

In this episode of The Milk Road Show, Raoul Pal lays out a thesis that's equal parts uncomfortable and urgent: the global financial system is heading toward an economic singularity, and most people are completely unprepared for it. ~~~~~
