Bond markets are getting crushed this week: The bond tracking ETF, $TLT, is down 4% since Friday and on track for its worst week this year.
Why is this happening? - First, CPI inflation data showed that inflation JUMPED to 3.2% and is now up from 2 straight months. - Then, PPI inflation data nearly DOUBLED, rising to 1.6%, further igniting fears of a rebound in inflation. - Interestrate cuts are quickly being removed from market expectations.

A great thread by The Kobeissi Letter ->
While everyone is focused on AI, China has taken electric vehicles (EVs) to a whole new level. China currently has 2.5 MILLION EV chargers compared to just 130,000 in the US. China has an EV charger for every 7 cars while the US has an EV charger for every 18 cars. Meanwhile, China's EV chargers provide 4 kilowatt per hour compared to 1 kilowatt per hours in the US. To put this into perspective, the energy difference is like powering 17 standard light bulbs in the US versus 67 bulbs in China. Is China the new leader of EV technology?
