Tl;dr: For a pleasant change, oil did nothing. 
After yesterday's Fed-cred-crushing collapse, stocks and bonds bounced back today amid micro (solid EPS from MSFT & Samsung) and macro (PCE cool, GDP weak, Consumption strong, Claims strong). 
The liquidation of a major AI fund (to Ken Griffin) also played into BTFD confidence that the momo carnage could be over. 
Lower yields (and rate-hike odds) dragged the dollar down (JPY intervention too) pushing gold higher. 
Crypto tracked tech higher.
