i never heard the words liquidation break or market got too far from value.
Today was a liquidation break. Meaning a news story took out sellers. this actually strengthened the market It was a phony move. The market was not really surprised or shocked that apple demand is soft.
SO ATH sellers panicked shorted and get punished if they shorted after the open, RTH were happy to buy those shares
red wine with fish moment was when the bears could not even test the lows
