Markets have taken on a risk-on tone on the news of global central bank stimulus. Gold has rallied the most as real rates fell, equities rose and bond prices fell.
But the market's risk-on psychology appears to be stretched and fragile.
While the long-term bullish trend is quite real, the consensus is susceptible to reversals should growth disappoint in the near-term.
