Job openings for US economists are falling:
Job openings for economists dropped -21% YoY in December 2025, to ~1,773, the lowest since at least 2019.
This marks the 3rd consecutive annual decline.
The weakness was broad-based across sectors, with full-time academic positions dropping -33% YoY.
At the same time, Federal government job listings dropped -71% YoY, to just 24.
The number of job openings in business and finance has also weakened for a third year.
As a result, total available vacancies for economists are -43% below the 2019 pre-pandemic levels.
The economics job market is experiencing one of its worst downturns in history.

$BTC ︱ The Swing Short.
Still holding the entire swing short. After fractionalized entries, the overall average sits at 95.6K. I plan to hold this down to the absolute minimum target of the yearly open (87.6K).
Reasoning is simple. We had an external range high hunt, reversed back into the range, and are now testing a local trend line with untested liquidity below. As stated multiple times before, at the naked lows we’ve not stopped out any longs, but rather accumulated long liquidations.
As long as BTC remains below 95K and shows acceptance back into the range, sub-90K is next. This may take time to develop, and the entry may be revisited multiple times.
One thing is certain: if I’m right and BTC trends lower through 2026, Ido not want to be trading the drop. Levels will break easily, liquidity will be grabbed aggressively, retests will be shallow, and overall these are not favorable conditions for trading.
I’m sticking to my plan. I’m prepared to take a loss if 112K is hit. Nothing will be closed until 80K is tested. My plan is clear. My thesis is clear. Above 112K, I am wrong, and I will admit it.
Note: Apologies for the large watermark, people have been copying my posts, so from now on everything will include one.

BREAKING:
🇺🇸
NYSE to support 24/7 trading through tokenized stocks and blockchain settlement.
NYSE is building a platform to trade tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs with on-chain settlement and stablecoin funding.
This allows 24/7 trading, instant settlement, and fractional share access, just like crypto markets.
Investors will still get real ownership, dividends, and voting rights, only the infrastructure moves to blockchain.
NYSE is also working with BNY and Citi to move tokenized money and collateral on-chain.
This is Wall Street adopting crypto rails, not crypto adapting to Wall Street.

Everyone is chasing “AI”…
but smart money is buying something completely different.
We’re at the start of 2026, and if you look at the top-performing Vanguard ETFs, one thing stands out clearly:
Big Tech is nowhere to be found.
Leadership today isn’t in software it’s in hardware and the real economy.
What do the numbers tell us?
1- Industrials ($VIS) & Materials ($VAW)
At the top, with returns close to 8.7%.
The world is going back to building, manufacturing, and tangible resources.
2- Small Caps dominate the rest of the list
(Russell 2000 & S&P 600)
Liquidity is becoming bolder moving away from mega-cap safety and searching for growth in small and mid-sized companies.
Full list of top performers:
VIS Industrials ETF ($VIS) – 8.74% 🟢
VAW Materials ETF ($VAW) – 8.37% 🟢
VTWG Russell 2000 Growth ETF ($VTWG) – 8.15% 🟢
VFMO U.S. Momentum Factor ETF ($VFMO) – 8.04% 🟢
VTWO Russell 2000 ETF ($VTWO) – 7.91% 🟢
VTWV Russell 2000 Value ETF ($VTWV) – 7.77% 🟢
VBK Small-Cap Growth ETF ($VBK) – 7.58% 🟢
VIOV S&P Small-Cap 600 Value ETF ($VIOV) – 7.29% 🟢
VIOO S&P Small-Cap 600 ETF ($VIOO) – 6.98% 🟢
VIOG S&P Small-Cap 600 Growth ETF ($VIOG) – 6.92% 🟢
Bottom line
What we’re witnessing is a sector rotation a clear changing of the guard.
The market is sending a loud message:
Growth at any price is over.
Value, production, and real assets are back.
The lesson:
Don’t chase yesterday’s trades (overcrowded tech).
Position where tomorrow’s economy is being built (industrials & materials).

💫🌙💖🌹 POÈME : Blue Monday on-chain
Les bougies sont rouges comme un ciel d’hiver,
$BTC Bitcoin soupire, les alts se taisent.
Les charts frissonnent, le marché hésite,
Même la lune attend un meilleur timing.
Mais sous le bruit, les blocs avancent,
Le code tourne, patient, silencieux.
Car après chaque nuit de liquidation,
Vient toujours un matin vert.
HODL ton calme, respire un peu,
Même les cycles ont besoin de repos...
Bonne journée 🥰
Bienveillament ✨️

(✒️ Blue Monday = troisième lundi de janvier.
C’est dit être “le plus déprimant” mais ce n’est pas prouvé scientifiquement. L’idée vient surtout d’une campagne marketing. 🌥️ Beaucoup de personnes ressentent quand même une baisse de moral en janvier, ce qui explique pourquoi ce concept “colle” à la réalité de certains.)
December's 50,000 payroll wasn't "weak."
It was 150% ABOVE breakeven.
Wall Street is using 2019 math in a 2026 labor market.
The breakeven number collapsed from 200,000 to 30,000 when net immigration turned negative for the first time in 50 years.
Dallas Fed: 30K
Kansas City Fed: 29K
Brookings low scenario: 20K
Every analyst who called December "concerning" produced analysis that is mathematically incorrect.
Not debatable. Arithmetic.
When the denominator shrinks, the ratio changes even if the numerator stays flat.
This is why GDP is 5.3% while manufacturing contracted for 10 straight months.
This is why unemployment fell to 4.4% on "weak" hiring.
This is why every payroll report in 2026 will be systematically misread by consensus.
The labor force is shrinking. The formula broke. Wall Street hasn't updated the spreadsheet.
Bookmark this. We'll revisit after the Feb 6 benchmark revision erases 911,000 jobs that were never there.

GM!
new week and happy Monday everyone.
Quick BTC update.
$BTC / $USDT
Price reacted well around the 92k key level.
On the 4H timeframe, we still have a higher low, so the structure remains intact.
This morning’s drop is partly driven by macro pressure, with ongoing US/EU trade tensions causing volatility and over $850M in liquidations.
Short term, BTC is likely to range between $91,800 and $93,000.
The move back to VWAP looks like a market reset, not a reversal.
👉 For now: observation mode, waiting for a clear breakout.
Not financial advice.
