For positioning, The Kobeissi Letter figures suggest monitoring sectors with high foreign ownership and currency hedging costs when sizing risk in US equities.

According to @santimentfeed, the combined market cap of the top 12 stablecoins fell by 2.24 billion in the past 10 days, coinciding with an approximately eight percent decline in Bitcoin BTC price (source: Santiment on X). According to @santimentfeed, this pattern reflects a rotation into traditional safe havens as gold and silver reach all time highs while crypto and stablecoin valuations contract (source: Santiment on X). According to @santimentfeed, falling stablecoin supply shows money is leaving crypto for fiat rather than waiting in stablecoins to buy dips, reducing immediate buying power (source: Santiment on X). According to @santimentfeed, shrinking stablecoin liquidity tends to pressure altcoins more than Bitcoin and can make rebounds weaker or slower (source: Santiment on X). According to @santimentfeed, a more durable recovery likely requires stablecoin market caps to stabilize and rise, signaling fresh capital inflows and renewed confidence (source: Santiment on X).
