Wall Street Beset With Losses at the Open; Bitcoin, Gold Surge

Portuguese-German bond spreads have widened, again, to 347bps, indicative of the eurozone not behaving as one. The last time it behaved like this, there was a euro currency crisis.

Speaking of the euro, it’s lower by 0.7% v the King Dollar.

Bitcoins are roaring higher, now up nearly 6%.

Copper has been crushed, down 2.6%.

Gold is soaring higher, +1.6% and oil is off by 1.5%.

The biggest story is the yen, up an astounding 1.6% to 104.30 v the dollar.

All of these things point to an onerous day on Wall.

Nasdaq futs are off by 21.

    Bitcoin is up 67% since May 23rd. That train has left the station.

    Should we start treating bitcoins seriously now? I hate them, for some reason.

    The Euro has been a fucking disaster. If Brexit happens peripheral Euro users will be forced to shape up for real or to set up their own currency.
