Today, we note that the recent divergences we have highlighted have almost begun to hyperextend, as small caps, transports and other sectors had a banner day even as Mag7 and Tech were decidedly meh. Elsewhere, FX is heating up as the US dollar is breaking down and sterling is breaking up, among other developments. This, a bit of throwing shade on the concept of "dry powder" and much more on today's pod, which is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy.

One interesting link discussed on today's pod was on Japan's new Tagei submarine class - and its revolutionary battery-driven tech.

There is no John J. Hardy substack to accompany today's podcast due to time constraints.
