  2. maybe an underlying fear of a rate hike.

    to impress Jodie Foster?
     
  4. I dont think so, its very constant over the last year, even when the bond market is signaling a rate cut. Commodities fall in the weeks leading up to a fed meeting.
     
  5. All markets are becoming correlated together because of excess liquidity, indexation and benchmarking.
