There isn't enough money to short or squeeze an entire index. Shit banks don't even have the paper to back up what they've already "bought".
Chaotic reactions are just a mash up of chasers, followers, and computers in the middle.
Not even close to enough.
Just an admission they are still wrong and now admittedly behind
Make no mistake. This is the FED getting really jumpy.
Knee jerk coming in hot.
Stocks Tumble After Fed's Bullard Urges 50bps Rate Increase, Suggests Inter-Meeting Hike | ZeroHedge

The irony is the options gamblers.
Gambling options means low capital.
Low capital means feeling inflation the worst.
Snake eating its tail.
Who said it was.
Buyers just need much needed relief. No not the end of the world.
Just reversion to mean...well at least we hope so.
It is literally bad for everyone.
No good owning assets either if no one wants or can afford them.
Continue? To what double digit inflation?
I sure hope not.
At least they are saying they aren't. They just haven't got the pressure to act faster.
At current inflation, with everyone and theor brother stating price increases...I'm betting that will change.
Dare I say 30 yr mortgage headed to 6%?
IMO 10 year headed to at least 5
That's what the real point is. Not that yields going up .06% is a hige deal.
It's the money that has to move in to bonds to kake them move like that.
Bond yields go up as prices go down.
Prices go down when there is high demand.
Yields rising is money leaving equities.
IMO interst rates have only held off due to hopes for transitory and FED base rate.
Both will very soon no longer be true.
When the market acknoleges it...who can say.
10 yr and inflation have to match.
Just the way it has to be.
Big moves coming in the bind market.
"Transitory" now laughable.
Everyone will want interst to match inflation at the least.
If having cash is a losing proposition when stacked against inflation.
So is loaning money at over half the inflation rate.
Actually all VIX products climbing with the market from open.
No conviction at these levels.
Oil VIX up almost 10% with oil up almost 1.5%.
Something diaconnected. Sketchy day to play.
The play was not to buy in August. I agree obvious now...but in August your chart was much different.
Tom Lee even calling for SPY 500 then
ZON crappy earnings. Ford crappy earnings.
The computer chip shortage is a farce.
No one "needs" semis to do anything. They barely even need semis.
Market makers are sitting on 20% overnight from yesterday's floor to today's ceiling.
It WILL sell off.
GTFO before AMZN turns
Or forever hold your bags
All the chaos and the Russell never flinched.
20% down coming for the S&P and NAS eventually.
Market red with ZON up 12%. This is a circus show.
Jobs are 1 of his two mandates. The other is inflation.
They are both working against his current policy bigly.
With that jobs report and inflation approaching 8%...Powell will have no where to hide.
He's way way way behind already.
Nixon had to enact federal price controls and fuel rationing as a result.
Last time was 7% with a drop in oil.
This time way over 7%.
Almost half those gains are already gone
Whatever just happened with AMZN after a dismal earnings certainly wasn't investing.
Let the interest rate hike race begin.
Jobs report was great. Powell has nothing left to hang his hat on but $92 oil???
Inflation is in the market bigly.
Leverage must be flushed.
People can't afford housing.
The peakiest of peaky indicators for the peakiest inflation.
Where is the next generation of home buyers living?
Or are tou paying 150k for an F150?
There is a choice I guess.
This one just at a quick glance already almost a year old.

Current FED warned against irrational exuberance almost 2 years ago now.
So still close on the time too.
Oil has already skyrocketed since the last report.
Inflation will be almost 8% and turn lots of heads.
We are close.
I have nothing else to say.
It is all happening right in front of your eyes.
There were never boys, just line watchers chasing line watchers, now no one knows what they have is worth.
Market hasn't even started to decide yet.
US still buying equities, nevermind interst rates.
Yuck
Look at the reaction Eurozone and US markets are having compared to the FTSE.
Rest my case.
Lastly...do you think if the market drops and holds a 20% loss for some time....
Houses stay up 20%...or a 40% disconnect?
I'm not even trying ti debate it anymore.
I can buy FB at 2020 prices today, and half the NAS at 2019 prices.
There is ver little profit left out there.
Shopify and Paypal not good, IMO not a good omen for AMZN earnings.
None of it has to be scary if you would have or can still set your greed aside and protect the capital you do have.
It is just a cyclical thing. Nothing anyone can do about it but wait.
Yea but interst rates?
EU just held theirs to zero. English poind on the rise comparatively.
Things by default will get cheaper to import to England.
It is unequivocally not a matter of if, but a matter of who ackowledges what needs to happen first.
England is smart, they have been down this road before in the Thatcher years.
Of all the countries who have experienced hyper inflation, some have managed to correct it successfully. Sky rocketing interest rates were the result EVERY SINGLE TIME.
100% without fail throughout the history of humans.
That's the Euro zone. They are as bad as Powell.
Just prolonging the inevitable.
