Blood On The European Streets As EUR-Yuan Carry Unwinds Crush Stocks
EURCNH was among the most popular carry trades - a stable long leg and central bank sponsored weakness in the sell leg. That is why, now that The PBOC has peed in the punchbowl, all that easy money carry has been forced to unwind as volatility forces traders to buy EUR and sell CNH en masse, shuttering the carry-funded trades as they go. No where is that more clearly visible than the plunge in European stocks.
*EUROPEAN SHARES CLOSE LOWER; STOXX 600 FALLS 2.7%
This is the biggest 2-day drop since 2014.
And no, there is no rotation to US of this 'money' as it is all credit-created positioning, once the carry-trade is unwound the entire funding position is removed from market liquidity.

Fairy gold always disappears when the new day comes. Betting on a "sure thing" is a great way to lose your ass....
What are the fuckwads at CNBC saying? That should be good for a laugh.
In may they even said "Liquidity is the most underappreciated risk factor out there."

The realization that the Fed is not going to hike... 12 months into the foolish belief. Maybe the masses will wake up soon... or not.
Is the € dead yet? :D
Personally i'd like it back to 1.3€ vs 1 $ so when i go to NY for shopping, all stores have a "generic" ~25% discount just on the account of that!
OK Jim Rickards. We've had the 3.5% Yuan snowflake. Is this the avalanche?
Its a vaporization process being carried out by alien technology that found its way to earth a long time ago. It is designed to convert the value of exchange stored in money into the love of fellow bio-organisms--a peace bomb so to speak.
"...once the carry-trade is unwound the entire funding position is removed from market liquidity."
Thus setting the stage for tomorrow's shocking surprise that no one could have seen coming.
Annnd it's GONE! The Money's GONE!
