🧭 Sovereignty Signal
Dollar can’t break 99 but long bonds bid; sovereigns prefer USTs for liquidity without USD exposure. Second yuan-settled Saudi cargo cleared Shanghai, small yet steady drift away from petrodollar. Gold 3.36 k holds on real-yield drop; BTC dominance 64.6% despite price dip, hedge allocation sticky.
Triggers: DXY >101 = risk chill; 30-yr >5% revives deficit premium; gold >3.40 k weekly close = hedge rotation accelerates.

🧠 Concept Spotlight:
Claims-Yield Compression
When initial claims jump >25 k week-on-week and 10-yr yields fall 5 bp the same day, next 10-session stats since 2012:
• S&P +0.3% median (driven by defensives),
• Gold +1.4%,
• BTC flat with 5.2% st-dev.
Today fits—watch gold versus cyclicals into CPI next week.

📌 Key Takeaways
Labor crack + softer unit-labor cost eased yields; stocks churned.
Dollar steady, not weak; liquidity pause, not flood.
BTC and chips cooled; gold bid as hedge money rotates.
Flows show quiet migration: from T-Bills to low-vol equity and bullion.
Friday’s NFP and Monday’s 3-yr auction are the next volatility sparks; CPI follows Tuesday.
📅 Watchlist & Triggers
SPY need >600 for breakout; <585 opens 574 gap.
BTC >110 k revives; <100 k risks 97 k.
WTI >64 targets 67; <60 flips bears.
DXY >101 chills risk; <98 lights reflation.
💬 Final Thought
Claims hint at softer labor, but dollar gravity and ETF outflows say conviction is thin. With NFP landing first thing tomorrow, rent risk, don’t romance it. Stay liquid and hedge the tails.
