The Euro is down on the “NO” news out of Greece and the risk range here is widening again to $1.09-1.13. That should be respected as it’s:
A) A leading indicator for rising volatility in Foreign currencies and Commodities and
B) An explicit #deflation risk on signal (think inflation expectations of things like Oil and low-quality peripheral debt).
On a related note, WTI Oil is getting smashed for a -4.8% loss this morning. (That’s after a -6.7% drop last week.) It’s down -44% year-over-year.
The #StrongDollarDeflation risk remains for most things levered to inflation expectations (including junk debt) – this is why big beta to “reflation” is in drawdown mode again.
