来源：华尔街情报圈 - 银价"闪崩"19%，回吐今年以来所有涨幅； - 比特币暴跌12%，跌破65000美元，跌破所有"看起来很重要的支撑线"； - 美国股市全线下跌，纳斯达克指数遭遇去年4月暴跌以来最严重的三日跌幅； - 软件股继续崩塌，SaaS已经连续第8天下跌，跌到2023年11月以来最低，超卖程度接近历史极值。 这不是恐慌，是成年人的选择——先活下来。 第一，昨天的下跌有一个奇怪的特征，盘中没有"V型反弹"，全部收于当日最低价附近。过去一年，市 场已经被训练出条件反射"只要急跌，就一定有人接"，但昨晚不同——卖盘是单向的，且贯穿全天。这 可能是唯一的好消息，因为世界第一次"认真害怕"，开始为"没人来救"做心理准备——这是认知层面的 转折。 第二，昨晚的下跌是从21:30开始加速的，当时公布的数据显示美国初请失业金人数激增、职位空缺跌 到 2020 年以来最低——戳破了"经济很稳，可以兜住一切"的幻想。该数据公布后，交易员将美联储下 一次降息的时间预期从7月提前至6月，并预计10月前将进行第二次降息。不过即便如此，仍旧没有减缓 跌势。 第三，与过去下跌不同的是——无人救市。美联储官员、美国财长部官员、特 ...

- 比特币大跌，至特朗普当选总统以来的最低点； - 美元和美债收益率小幅下跌。 表面上看，这是一个普通的交易日，但实际上这是一个"风险转移"的交易日。 第一，黄金和白银的强势反弹，掩盖了下跌的声音——美股与比特币同步下跌，才是"真正的主线"—— 这是一场被世界忽略的下跌。 来源：华尔街情报圈 ——把"最拥挤的交易"先踢出去。 又是一个令人惊诧的交易日： - 黄金和白银强势反弹，金价接近5000美元，银价接近90美元； - 美国股市全线下跌，道琼斯指数跌0.34%，标普500指数跌0.84%，纳斯达克指数跌1.43%； - 比特币大跌，不是因为它本身出了什么事，而是它被当成了风险偏好最纯粹的表达（提前报警）。所 以它总是先跌、跌得更狠。 如果这是一次具有传导性质的下跌，那么还会传导至其他"拥挤交易"。 第二，黄金、白银在涨，但涨势"并不张扬"——金价在5000美元附近犹豫，银价在90美元附近出现回吐 ——如果这是趋势性行情，它们不会走得这么犹豫。更像前期快速下跌后的技术修复，而非确认开启一 轮涨势（是在"恢复体力"，而不是"起跑"）。黄金收盘站上5140美元（最好连续两个交易日）才能算是 重新上涨的开始。 第三 ...
