updates: The recent global market slump is attributed to the wind-down of carry trades used by investors to juice their bets, rather than a shift in the US economic outlook. The market sell-off is likely due to position capitulation and the sharp unwind of carry trades. Hedge funds' adjustments are exacerbating market moves as they typically fund their bets through borrowing. Traders expect over 120 basis points of US rate cuts by the end of the year. [b36c4b1e]
