Global stock indices are repeatedly hitting new highs, reaching unprecedented levels not seen before the financial crisis. It sounds promising. However, a closer look at the market data reveals an interesting situation—many individual stocks are stagnant or even lagging behind. This phenomenon of "index soaring while individual stocks stagnate" is actually more common than you might think. Behind the illusion of a booming market lies an increasingly fierce game rule where the winners take all.

The index is soaring while individual stocks are lying flat, this is the ultimate embodiment of winner takes all.

---

It's the same old trick, as long as the numbers look good, that's it.

---

To put it bluntly, the market is rising joyfully, while retail investors are panicking.

---

The new highs of the index are deceiving; just look at those junk stocks you bought and you'll understand.

---

The market has long been ruined; the winners keep winning more while the lower levels sink deeper.

---

It feels like playing the same game but looking at different market data...

---

That's why I only follow the giants to eat the soup.

---

The index hits new highs but my wealth is shrinking; who should I blame?

---

Oh my, a bunch of individual stocks are dying, only a few beasts are soaring.

The illusion of prosperity is just an illusion; anyway, I've long been broken through.

Macro hedge funds just posted their strongest performance in over 15 years. Data from leading index provider HFR shows these funds—which profit by trading across equities, bonds, and commodities in response to broader economic shifts—surged 16% through November alone.
That's remarkable momentum. These strategies thrive when they can spot macro dislocations early: inflation spikes, currency volatility, central bank pivots, recession signals. Right now, they're clearly reading something compelling in the markets.
For traders, this matters. When macro funds move this decisively, it often signals

2026 could shape up as an ideal economic window if current trends persist. With oil prices and rental costs on a downward trajectory, inflation could approach zero percent according to recent market analysis. This scenario—neither overheated growth nor stagnation—would represent favorable conditions for asset markets. The convergence of falling energy costs and moderating housing expenses addresses two major inflation drivers, potentially allowing central banks more policy flexibility heading into the new year. Such a backdrop would have meaningful implications for both traditional and digital

Foreign holdings of US Treasuries took a modest hit in October, slipping $5.8 billion to reach $9.2 trillion—still the second-highest level ever recorded. Yet the bigger story lies elsewhere.
China's Treasury position, currently the third-largest globally, dropped significantly by $11.8 billion to $688.7 billion. That's noteworthy: this marks the lowest level since 2008, signaling a potential shift in how major economies manage their dollar reserves.
Meanwhile, Belgium's holdings continue to paint an interesting picture in the broader geopolitical and financial landscape. These treasury dynami

The appointment of the Fed chairman ultimately depends on the influence of certain politicians. Regardless of who ends up in the position, the independence of the Fed is likely to be severely compromised. From a trader's perspective, if policy intervention proves effective in addressing interest rate issues, it will definitely drive short-term market trends. But what about the long term? That's harder to say—water flows to lower ground; what happens after the policy red benefits are exhausted? So, I'm quite curious about how the second half of 2026 will unfold. That's when the

With the new administration's policy direction, strategic personnel placements at key financial institutions could reshape market dynamics. Once decision-makers aligned with current administration priorities take positions of influence, traditional monetary policy constraints may shift significantly. This restructuring of institutional leadership could fundamentally alter how financial markets operate, particularly for assets like cryptocurrencies that have been heavily affected by Fed policies. The anticipated personnel changes suggest a potential pivot in how monetary authority exercises con

Most traders chase quick wins, but the real play is building equity through sustainable income streams. Long-term value in crypto beats speculation every time. Whether it's staking rewards, yield farming, or strategic holdings—steady returns compound way better than gambling on pump-and-dumps. The difference between those who survive bear markets and those who don't? They understand that patience beats hype.

The BRICS coalition is reshaping global financial architecture by moving away from dollar-centric systems toward gold-backed arrangements. With member nations now controlling roughly half the world's gold supply, this strategic pivot signals a significant shift in international economic power dynamics. The move accelerates de-dollarization efforts and creates alternative liquidity frameworks—developments that ripple across commodity markets and reshape macro conditions for digital asset investors watching currency debasement trends.

Recent reports indicate that a US naval operation has intercepted another cargo vessel in the Caribbean waters near Venezuela, marking an escalation in the ongoing energy embargo against Nicolás Maduro's administration.

The active fund management industry is hitting a wall.
Global active equity funds are hemorrhaging capital at an unprecedented pace. This year alone, outflows are projected to hit $605 billion—obliterating the previous record of $450 billion set not long ago.
What's striking isn't just one bad year. We're looking at the 10th consecutive annual outflow over the last 11 years. That's a pattern, not noise.
Investors are voting with their feet. They're abandoning the traditional active management playbook in droves. Whether it's passive index strategies, alternative asset classes, or entirely diff

Each candidate brings different perspectives to monetary policy. Rieder brings institutional asset management experience, Hassett offers policy advisory background, Warsh holds prio

The probability of the Fed cutting interest rates in January has fallen to 20%, and market expectations have reversed.
The latest data shows that the probability of the Fed implementing a rate cut in January has significantly dropped to 20%, far lower than previous market expectations. This shift reflects the complexity of inflation pressures and economic data, and directly impacts the cryptocurrency market's assessment of liquidity.
The relationship between interest rate policies and the cryptocurrency market has always been close. A rate cut usually means a more relaxed liquidity environ

Cleveland Federal Reserve President Beth Hammack recently signaled that interest rate adjustments are unlikely in the coming months, following the central bank's three consecutive rate cuts. This stance carries significant weight for crypto and broader financial markets. When the Fed pauses rate policy after an easing cycle, it often signals a shift in monetary strategy—whether a stabilization period or a precursor to further moves. For traders and investors monitoring macroeconomic headwinds, this rhetoric matters: stable or rising rates typically strengthen traditional assets and can create

The incoming Fed chair faces immediate pressure to pivot. According to recent remarks, there's a clear expectation—cut rates aggressively and do it fast. This signals a potential shift in monetary policy that could reshape market dynamics. For the crypto community watching macro indicators, this kind of policy pivot typically reshapes capital flows. Lower rates generally ease liquidity conditions, which historically correlates with investor appetite for risk assets including digital currencies.

The statement of 5-10% is a bit harsh, it feels like it hits the soft spot of most people.

Suddenly having some money can actually cause panic, I've seen this happen a lot.

Having money alone is indeed useless, it also has to be matched with it.

The population crisis facing Europe deserves attention. Data shows that Europe's current birth rate is only 50% of the replacement level, and this trend is worsening year by year. In other words, Europe's population structure is aging rapidly— the young population continues to decline while the elderly population continues to increase.
This demographic imbalance will have far-reaching effects on long-term economic growth, the labor market, the pension system, and even asset prices. An aging society is typically accompanied by low growth, high inflation pressures, and changes in liquidi
