another binary session determined by what semis are doing
Bellingham should be #1 and it’s not really close. everyone else in the top 5 on this list is a striker. Bellingham has 6 goals with defensive responsibilities that require him to run all over the pitch. Messi, Haaland and Mbappe *literally* walk around the pitch when they don’t have the ball.
my casual soccer friends watching Haaland for the first time
and i’’m sorry, but Dembele cannot win the Ballon d'Or a 2nd(!!!) time when he only started 11 league games. I don’t care if he wins Ligue 1, the CL and the WC in the same year.
Rice is 16 months younger than Dembele, but Rice has played 10,588 more minutes (just domestic league). Saka is 4 years and 8 months younger than Dembele, but Saka has played 1,572 more minutes (just domestic league) the PSG dominance rest schedule also helps the France national team (Doue, Barcola)
a bit late to this discourse, but Lloyd’s, “you can rest when your career is over” jab might mean more if her seasons were anywhere near as grueling as someone who plays 38 league games per year (plus domestic and european cups) in Germany, England, and Italy.
COR1M and 3M new closing lows again. this fuckery won't go on for much longer, thank god. iykyk
VIXEQ highest level since peak liberation day panic when SPX was in a 21% drawdown. at the lows we hit -2.6% from ATHs today. mechanics keep stretching to new extremes
here’s the summer of 2024 set up I’ve been talking about. healthy boring upward drift ends ✅ we make record low implied correlations ✅ unhealthy breadth expansion pressures mkt leaders and indices ✅ ranges expand, volatility starts to increase ✅ (annotated with VX settlement day)
