Bigworld, One wildcard right now is whether the PPT steps in to help nudge the stock market higher? It wouldn't be too surprising, since the Fed doesn't want another big leg down that could require a 'Fed to the rescue' operation (QE, ZIRP, etc).

Rickards said that historically the Fed isn't too concerned over a 10% drop in the stock market, but a 15% drop is when they normally step in. Anyway, with so much on the line, it's possible the PPT will step in to play 'damage control'.

Bigworld, It looks like the market could become increasingly nervous next week as the April 2 tariff announcement approaches. Trump is calling April 2 the 'Liberation day', but for stock investors it may turn out to be the day that $ is 'liberated' / removed from our investment accounts.

Anyway, could be time for cash, since the SVIX is essentially a bullish bet on the stock market.
