🏦 Macro and interest rates | Yields fell across the board: UK data was the trigger, eurozone followed

🇬🇧 UK: Labor market cooled → rate cut expectations heated up → 10-year yield fell below 4.4%

• UK unemployment rate rose to 5.2% (approaching five-year high, slightly higher than expected)
• Average weekly salary including bonus +4.2% year-on-year (lower than expected, and at a stage low level)
• Regular wages +4.2% year-on-year (in line with expectations, but trend was slowing)
• The number of non-farm/salaried employees continued to decline (employment margins weakened)
• Market focus shifted to Wednesday's inflation data: overall inflation is expected to slow to 3.0% and core to 3.1%

➡️ Interpretation:
This set of data has pushed the UK one step from "higher interest rates for longer" to "faster easing":
• Wages and employment cooled down simultaneously → The Bank of England had more room;
• The bond market reacted first, the foreign exchange market followed, and the stock market showed a relative dominance in finance/defense.

The Critical Disconnect
The 20th century's most significant monetary development was arguably the severing of formal links between national currencies and physical commodities—the birth of pure fiat money. This transition, completed when President Nixon suspended the U.S. dollar's convertibility to gold in 1971, marked a fundamental philosophical shift. Money was no longer a claim on a tangible asset but a legal construct backed by government decree and collective trust.
This fiat revolution granted central banks unprecedented control over monetary policy. They could now expand money supply to combat recessions, finance government spending more easily, and manipulate interest rates as economic tools. The immediate benefits included greater flexibility to address economic crises and the elimination of external constraints on domestic policy.
The Inflation Trade-Off
However, this new power came with significant trade-offs. Without the natural discipline imposed by gold's scarcity, governments faced constant temptation to finance spending through money creation, leading to persistent inflationary pressures. The 1970s stagflation exposed this vulnerability, as expansionary policies designed to boost employment instead created rampant inflation alongside economic stagnation.
This era saw the rise of new asset classes as inflation hedges. While gold ($XAU ) remained a traditional store of value, other commodities gained prominence. Oil ($CL) transformed into "black gold," a crucial strategic asset whose price movements began dramatically affecting global economies. Agricultural commodities like wheat ($ZW) and corn ($ZC) became not just foodstuffs but financial instruments sensitive to monetary policy.
The Dollar's Dominance
The post-Bretton Woods system evolved into a de facto global dollar standard. Despite being unbacked by gold, the U.S. dollar's dominance in trade, finance, and reserves created extraordinary exorbitant privilege for the United States. Other nations accumulated dollars as reserves, effectively lending to the U.S. at low cost. This system created global imbalances but provided a unified framework for international commerce.
Digital Precursors
The late 20th century also witnessed the digitization of traditional money—electronic bank transfers, credit cards, and digital accounting of fiat currencies. While often mistaken for true digital currency, these systems merely represented claims on traditional bank deposits rather than innovative forms of money. They streamlined the existing system but didn't alter money's fundamental nature as a centralized, debt-based instrument subject to political control and inflationary erosion.
Key Assets of the Fiat Era: $DXY (U.S. Dollar Index), $XAU (Gold), $CL (Crude Oil), $BTC (Bitcoin as digital gold analogue), $TIP (TIPS ETF for inflation protection)

The head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has minimized concerns over the U.S. dollar's decline over the past year, asserting that the currency is likely to maintain its leading status. Bloomberg posted on X, highlighting the IMF chief's perspective that the dollar's role in global finance remains strong despite recent fluctuations.
The IMF leader emphasized that while the dollar has experienced some depreciation, its foundational role in international trade and finance is expected to persist. The currency's widespread use in global transactions and as a reserve currency underpins its continued dominance.
The remarks come amid ongoing discussions about the future of the dollar in the face of emerging currencies and economic shifts. However, the IMF chief's comments suggest confidence in the dollar's ability to withstand these challenges and retain its central position in the global economy.
The dollar's performance is closely watched by economists and policymakers, given its impact on international markets and trade dynamics. Despite recent declines, the IMF's outlook indicates a stable trajectory for the currency moving forward.👍🚨
