Thank you for your very interesting notes Lyn! ,🙂 And what are your expectations for global liquidity for 2023 and 2024?

Not great in the near term. The combination of the Fed doing QT, the Treasury shifting towards longer-duration bond issuance, and China running tight fiscal policy, are all liquidity negative.

I think we grind for a while until something snaps in the Treasury market or something adjacent, and then we do the next leg up in liquidity.

Liquidity bottomed back in Oct 2022 right after 1) the UK bond market outright broke and 2) the US bond market was really wobbly (bad liquidity, high volatility). That was fixed by the Treasury draining its cash account and shortening the duration of its bond issuance.

When we think about global liquidity, am I right in saying China's M2 is greater than the US? And, isn't China encouraging loans and growth in money supply at present?

What could be very tough to analyze in bitcoin is that, while we’re living in a very tight and low liquidity global market, those with liquidity or things to sell/swap, once they identify as NEEDING bitcoin in the face of growing economic, USD, global asset decay, all bets are off. Do we know wh...

why do long duration bonds hurt liquidity more than short duration bonds?
