The Dollar Index (“Dixie”) this morning touched its highest level — 103.000 — since 09 April 2025, (a 19-month high). All three elements of the Metals Triumvirate are below today’s Neutral Zones as are both the Euro and Spoo; still, BEGOS Markets’ volatility is yet again light, in the context that EDTRs (see Market Ranges) have of late been increasing. Too, the Bond’s “Baby Blues” of linreg consistency yesterday confirmed dropping beneath their key +80% axis, indicative of still lower prices: currently 107^02, we structurally see 106^07 as potentially coming into play near-term, especially should Friday’s release of the October PPI indicate a faster-than-expected pace. Gold has slipped back below “The Floor” of 4000, price now 3963: our “low if a down day” for Gold is 3916 although the 3936-3634 zone can yield pivot support. The Econ Baro looks to metrics including October’s Existing Home Sales, and late in the session, the month’s Treasury Budget.
