$1.2M on $SPY 580 C for Monday
Another China trade deal lotto for over the weekend
Data from @unusual_whales
In April, Charles Gasparino of FOX said something very unusual. He said that "Wall street executives are finding out that a trade deal between India and US is close."
For weeks now, I have been reporting how it seems Wall Street has been getting inside information regarding trade deals, and often trading them.
April 23 was no exception.
Huge $SPY calls were made right at close, expirying IN ONE DAY, before the news was leaked.
On April 24, they were 100% on these contracts, from 4.26 to 8.52.
They made millions.
Unusual.

On April 9th, you can see before Trump posted "buy" on Truth Social, traders opened $QQQ $TQQQ and $SPY calls.
RIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS, someone opened $SPY 509 calls, expiring that day!
Those calls were up 2100% in one hour.
You can see all volume was literally opened that day. You can see all volume was new opening volume (not only on the Zero days, but also on the weekly $QQQ and $TQQQ calls).

Not just $SPY showing normalization in the markets. Broader volumes in general and ETFs as a % of overall volume coming down to normal levels below 30% as well. Things were still quite elevated as recently as Friday though.

Market $SPX $SPY volatility continued to fall today.
IV rank now 45 from 48, IV percentile dropped to 6%(!!!), IV regime still elevated due to $VIX.
$VIX fell 2.36%, with some buyers stepping in from yesterday, but mostly buying the May $16 put.

我们在2月15日,提示了清仓美股,注意风险。当前需要耐心等待巴菲特的出手,他往往是最精准的猎手,如同08年!
目前从各项经济指标来看,美国衰退大概率避免不了,贸易战不会短时间停止,就像打德州扑克一样,沉没成本太大,互相已经损失了上万亿的经济重创,只能一直加注下去,最后赢者通吃。今天高盛最新的报告预测,对美元十分悲观,2025年GDP预期增长为0,通胀将会大幅上升,降息可能性渺茫。
团队做了两张图表,供大家参考,一张是08年金融危机的情况,雷曼兄弟破产,仅仅是行情正式下跌的开始,如同我们现在一样,而巴菲特在08年的两次出手,尤其是救GE,可谓抄底十分精准,很快我们将会收到Q1 伯克希尔的财报,便能知晓巴菲特是否出手。
一张图是各种衰退情况下的模拟预测走势,并于历史上重大金融事件的重叠情况,大概率我们现在还在下跌的初期阶段,不要过早的把子弹打完,一定要保留好现金流和足够的子弹。🧐


US Treasury Secretary Bessent just said: The VIX $VIX has spiked and likely peaked.
