Description
Today was a positioning âwarning day.â
Crude is where shorts are most crowded, yet it underperformed energy. Palladium is where longs are most crowded, yet it didnât lead metals. And in FX, Swiss is where specs are most short, yet it was the worst performer, even versus the euro.
When positioning stops translating into performance, you tighten up and stop forcing the framework day-to-day. If these inversions persist, the edge is paused. If it snaps back and the expected leaders start leading again, positioning is back in gear.
