PSTEIN FILES TOMORROW: AG Pam Bondi Announces Thursday Release As 250 Victim Names Redacted

BY TYLER DURDEN

THURSDAY, FEB 27, 2025 - 10:20 AM

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced on Wednesday evening that she's going to release DOJ files on dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

"You said last week that you had the Epstein files on your desk. When can we see them?" asked Fox News' Jesse Watters.

"Jesse, there are well over - this will make you sick, 200 victims. Well over... over 250 actually. So we have to make sure that their identity is protected, and their personal information. But other than that, I think tomorrow Jesse - breaking news right now, you're going to see some Epstein information being released by my office."

"What kind? Are we going to see who was on the flights? Are we going to see any evidence from what he recorded - because he had all of his homes wired with recording devices," Watters asked.

"What you're going to see, hopefully tomorrow, is a lot of flight logs, a lot of names, a lot of information...it's pretty sick what that man did," Bondi continued.

Epstein, a financier and convicted sex offender was found dead in a New York jail cell while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. While his death was rules a suicide, he was also good friends with the Clintons and several other high-profile figures such as Bill Gates, Britain's Prince Andrew, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, former Barclays CEO and ' Disney princess' aficionado Jes Staley, Larry Summers, Harvey Weinstein, and former Victoria's Secret boss Les Wexner.

Media Room?Watters' question about recordings stems from earlier reporting that the deceased sex trafficker's homes were wired with recording devices.

In late 2019, Jeffrey Epstein victim Maria Farmer alleged that the deceased pedophile had a " media room" on the first floor where high-profile johns were allegedly recorded having sex with women and children.

"So if you’re facing the house, there’s a window on the right that’s barred – that’s the room, the ‘media room’ is what he called it," Farmer said. "And so there was a door that looked like an invisible door with all this limestone and everything and you push it and you go in and I saw all the cameras."

Maria said: "What it was – was like old televisions basically, like stacked."

"They were monitors inside this cabinet and there were men sitting here and I looked on the cameras and I saw toilet, toilet, bed, bed, toilet, bed.

"And I was like I’m never going to use the restroom here and I am never going to sleep here." - The Sun

The claim was supported in a 2024 lawsuit by two women - Danielle Bensky and Jane Doe 3, who said Epstein employed a sophisticated system involving constant CCTV surveillance within his New York mansion.

Bondi's appearance came hours after the DOJ appeared to give Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) the brush-off, telling her in a Wednesday letter that they are "reviewing your requests and look forward to engaging further to accommodate your oversight and legislative needs."

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump suggested that he would be open to releasing the Epstein list, while Bondi said in November that anyone named in the documents who are "still fighting to keep their names private, Sean, they have no legal basis to do so unless they're a child, a victim or a cooperating defendant."

Last week Bondi told Fox News that she had the Epstein files "sitting on my desk right now to review."

USTR proposes charging Chinese (-built) ships up to $1.5 million to enter US ports
I wonder what Team China shall do, either to charge a fee on ships bound for US or something to do with US-made airplanes, or simpler, and, perhaps, just embargo all elements of the periodic table along with stuff made from such elements

recommendation: GetMoreGold, of course, naturally, etc etc

let's wait and see

Tech Carnage - Make or Break

BY THE MARKET EAR

FRIDAY, FEB 28, 2025 - 5:12

The tech puke

NASDAQ approaching the 200 day moving average and the lower part of the bigger range. RSI at the most oversold levels since early August.



Source: Refinitiv

Magnificently oversold

MAG broke below the trend line a few sessions ago and has continued to puke. We are actually not far from the 200 day moving average. RSI at the most oversold levels in a long time, with the RSI at 28! It almost makes you want to try catching a few falling MAG knives...

The Mag7 fade

HF's net exposure to Mag7 is at the lowest levels since April 2023.



Source: GS

Smoked

Small cap tech has absolutely crashed over the past sessions. Chart 1 shows the move lower vs NASDAQ. Chart 2 shows just how oversold this has become, with the RSI at the lowest levels since we can "remember".

Chop chop

SPX continues chopping around inside the range that has been in place over the past months. We are basically at the lower part of the smaller range, but note there is a bigger support some 50 points lower, where the 200 day comes in. RSI at the most oversold levels since the August crash.

Massive de-grossing

Gentle reminder via GS: "This month’s notional de-grossing in US TMT – long sales and short covers combined – is tracking to be among the largest on our record, led by risk unwinds in Semis & Semi Equip and Interactive Media & Services names."

P/L pain

Fundamental L/S hedge funds just had the worst 5-day stretch since last August and the second worst drawdown over the past two years (-3.1 Z score).

Sensitive CTAs

ST 6045 (long gone), MT 5887 (this is the most important one) and LT 5413. Table shows Goldman's CTA projections. Full read on the potential selling flow by CTAs here.

Extreme fear

CNN's greed/fear index entered extreme fear yesterday. Haven't seen this much fear in a while, but note the market has tended to bounce during previous episodes of similar levels of fear.

Imminent upside risk?

Sure doesn't feel like it at the moment, but previous sharp moves lower in the AAII bull/bear spread have often resulted in markets bouncing hard. The most recent collapse of the sentiment spread is more extreme than what we have seen in a long time. Chart shows the AAII bull-bear spread vs the NASDAQ.

Everybody hedged the downside?

Note that skew has come down sharply during the latest sell off in markets. Everybody hedged the downside and are busy monetizing those hedges? Previous "notable" corrections in markets were accompanied with the crowd grabbing downside protection.

and handing knives to stock trading algorithms. Could that be a problem?
