  • Bullish bets on the US Dollar are skyrocketing:

    1-month risk reversals of the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index are up to 92 basis points, the highest since November 2022.

    This measures the difference in demand between bullish and bearish Dollar options.

    By comparison, in January, this metric was at -90 basis points, marking one of the sharpest turnarounds on record.

    This means traders are now paying the largest premium for option bets on Dollar strength in over 3 years.

    Surging oil prices, which are fueling rising US inflation expectations, are primarily behind the move.

    Meanwhile, the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index is trading at the highest level in 3 months.

    The US Dollar is seeing strong demand for the first time in months.

  • FR the Targaryens needed less Valyrian magic and more institution building. A permanent bureaucracy. A standing national army. A legislative council. Make more lands into royal fiefs. Do something to turn this confederation of warlord kin-groups into some kind of real cohesive nation under a real state.

    There's a scene in either Feast or Dance where Cersei is trying to borrow money from the Iron Bank and she thinks Westeros needs its own bank, and it's like the best idea anyone in these books has ever had. If she could have gotten that started it would have been a huge plus for her in the history books.

  • REPORT | Iraq’s federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) are locked in a dispute over restarting oil exports through the Kirkuk–Ceyhan pipeline to Turkey, as the U.S.-Israel war on Iran disrupts the country’s energy lifeline.

    🔸With tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz effectively halted, Iraq’s southern export terminals around Basra have halted operations, forcing also a sharp drop in national output to roughly 1.3–1.4 million barrels per day, less than a third of pre-war levels (4.2m b/d).

    🔸Baghdad has proposed rerouting up to 300,000 barrels per day through the Kirkuk–Ceyhan pipeline, plus another 200,000 bpd from Kurdish fields, to partially offset the losses.

    🔸 But the KRG, which controls the pipeline infrastructure needed to move crude from northern Iraq to Turkey, has refused to restart shipments. Kurdish officials accuse Baghdad of imposing an “economic blockade” that restricts regional access to U.S. dollars through a new customs system. They also say repeated drone and missile attacks from pro-Iranian groups on energy infrastructure have halted production and that Baghdad has done little to stop the strikes.

    👉 The standoff threatens Iraq’s economy, which relies on oil for about 90% of state revenue. With southern exports halted, the dormant Kirkuk–Ceyhan pipeline remains Iraq’s only realistic alternative route for restoring crude shipments.
