2. Today’s Market Bloodbath — a Screaming Red Flag
These numbers — as of April 21, 2025:- Dow Jones -1,172 pts (-3.3%)
- S&P 500 -165 pts (-3.6%)
- NASDAQ -550 pts (-3.9%)
- Russell 2000 -18.36% YTD
- VIX +97.99% (!!)
A VIX spike nearing +100% is a rare signal that fear is overwhelming institutional investors. It's the market saying:
If this continues, capital will flee risk, interest rates will spike, and credit markets could seize up — all of which hurt not just Wall Street but Main Street, badly.
Psychology 101 - People have a very hard time admitting they made a mistake or were wrong, and continue to convince themselves that they are right.
That’s correct. Trump lives this every day.
The response is now is a great time to buy stocks. Let it free fall. I'm here to profit from it in the long run.You seem to nicely confirm the point @victorvictoria made. So it was in the open, and people still voted, look what is happening, and yet look at the response!
