It sounds so great: “Coinbase soars 35!” “Robinhood soars 25%!” The financial media make it sound like a recovery, but 25% after a spectacular crash is an almost invisible blip … by Wolf Richter on Wolf Street: The headlines were everywhere last night and today: “Robinhood Soars…” or Robinhood Stock Soars…” because it soared, currently […]

Pam & Russ Martens: Citigroup’s role in Europe’s “flash crash” reminiscent of its “Dr. Evil” trade
Citigroup was mysteriously vague when it confessed to causing a $315.5 billion flash crash on Monday, saying only that it was an “error when inputting a transaction.” That’s all we get for a $300 billion wrong return stroke of someone’s right little finger? It seemed more than a little vague… by Pam Martens and Russ Martens […]
Lance Roberts: “Don’t be bearish” – the inevitable end of bad advice

Mark Spiegel: Tesla is Netflix and this stock market is going much lower
For years, Netflix had an absurd valuation based on its pioneering position in streaming media, but once it proved that a market existed a myriad of competitors swarmed all over it, and its stock collapsed. Tesla will meet the same finish line. by Mark Spiegel on Quoth the Raven: Friend of Fringe Finance Mark B. Spiegel of […]
David Haggith: How bad was the stock crash for April fools?
When GDP on Thursday morning revealed we are, in fact, crashing into recession, and the market flew like a released bird into the heavens, I noted that the market’s lunacy was just what I expected from delusional investors. That relief rally from the earlier decline that had run pretty much all month long, I said, […]
David Haggith: Federal Reserve crashes plane in route to “soft landing”
When the Fed did test a similar flight plan back in 2018, it ran erratically all year and ended when the Fed dove its plane into the frozen earth that December. Embolden by those results, Fed pilots will attempt similar maneuvers again this May with no more training but a lot more altitude…. […]
Wolf Richter: I now have to add Netflix to my “imploded stocks” list
The stock market is now on the verge disproving the Wolf Street dictum, “Nothing Goes to Heck in a Straight Line.” Apparently straight-down lines are now possible — and may even become the new norm! by Wolf Richter of Wolf Street: The final N in the erstwhile glorious FANGMAN – Facebook, Amazon, Nvidia, Google, Microsoft, Apple, Netflix – […]

David Stockman: The Coming “Biblical” Stock Market Crash
From David Stock via International Man: International Man: Whether we like it or not, the reality is, the Federal Reserve has an enormous influence over the dollar and the stock market. And right now, the Fed has an urgent and fateful decision to make. It can keep printing trillions of dollars, let inflation skyrocket or tighten […]
Charles Hugh Smith: Even The Crash Test Dummies Are Nervous
From Of Two Minds: Those trusting the Fed to be visibly weak, corrupt and incompetent forever might be in for an unwelcome surprise. When even the crash test dummies are nervous, it pays to pay attention. Being in a mild crash isn’t too bad if all the protective devices inflate as intended. But in a horrific […]
Everything Outside Your Control And Ownership Is At Risk
Excerpted from comments on previous DollarCollapse.com posts: “Is Gold Too Expensive?” – March 22 I think one big reason why so many people are ambivalent about gold and silver is they don’t understand them. By that I mean they don’t understand their “price behavior,” as a proxy for a lot of other issues. And I […]
Michael Pento: The Post Rate Hike Rally Won’t Last
From Pento Portfolio Strategies: The recent stock market rally is a trap. This is because Wall Street is vastly underestimating how hawkish the Federal Reserve will have to get in order to fight inflation. And how much weaker earnings and GDP growth will become as a result. The fact is Mr. Powell has finally become […]

In my latest Patron Post I laid out how Putin’s War and the sanctions imposed by the West and other nations will cause a tectonic shift in the new world order. It’s already happening. […]
MN Gordon: What Is The Strike Price Of The Powell Put?
From Economic Prism: The Federal Reserve, through a multi-decade series of shady practices, finds itself in a very disagreeable place. Policies of extreme market intervention have positioned the economy and financial markets for an epic bust. Price inflation. Unemployment. Interest rates. Stock market valuations.
