Precious metals suffer losses as rate hike expectations weigh on market sentiment.

Gold prices are struggling to stay above $1,950 an ounce, with bearish sentiment among both Wall Street analysts and Main Street retail investors. Some analysts predict that support could be tested around $1,900 an ounce. However, some analysts suggest that now is the time to buy gold and silver as a hedge against a potential downturn in equity markets and the growing threat of a recession. Rising interest rates have made bonds more attractive than gold, but the hawkish bias continues to pose risks for global financial markets.

US Stock Short Bets Reach $1 Trillion, Investors Prioritize America, and Money Funds Grow as FOMO Takes Over.

Short bets against US stocks have hit $1 trillion, the highest since April 2022, despite paper losses on the positions exceeding $100 billion. This suggests that some traders believe the S&P 500's 14% rally in 2023 will run out of steam. However, building bearish sentiment can prove to be a source of support for the market, as shorts may need to buy back stocks to exit their positions, which could further boost equities. The individual equities with the highest short interest reflect a similar view that the AI-fueled tech rally may soon falter, with Tesla bears betting $26 billion against the stock this year.

Regional Banks Brace for Turbulence Amidst Investor Warnings.

The rebound follows several days of brutal selling and a surge in bearish positioning in regional banks, with PacWest saying this week that it’s exploring strategic options. The heavy shorting in banks led to some calls this week for short-selling to be restricted, a possibility that the White House batted away on Friday.
