I recall the market dropped like 500 points one day in 1987, but that was something like a 22% drop. Perspective

Its mostly realization that fed will probably kick interest rates 100 basic points this year. They are taking advantage of the great economy to buy a little breathing room while the sun shines.

Shaun King is about as relevant as a Kardashian. An angry white man whose schtick is pretending to be an angry black man.

Falling Markets Show Trump the Other Side of the Tax Stimulus

The reason for the market’s downward turn isn’t that investors believe his stimulus measures, like tax cuts and deregulation, are failing, or might fail.

It is quite the opposite:

Investors believe his policies to stoke growth are going to work so well that they will overheat the economy, and

force the Federal Reserve to try to slow things down by raising interest rates faster than expected.

Sometimes you can have too much of a good thing.

Don’t forget what set off the plunge on Friday: better-than-expected job growth numbers.

Why is anyone surprised by this correction? The market was clearly frothy and PEs were getting unrealistic. Earnings have been great but realistically we cant expect the same earnings increases forever. A retreat to the current levels around the historic PE average of 17 was to be expected. The economy is still strong, wages are going up, interest rates are going up and unemployment is low.

The issue isn't being surprised or not. As others have said, everyone expected a correct.

The issue is that Trump has politicized the market. He's taken credit for it's gains. That also means he has to take this L. Goose/gander and whatnot.

[CosmicCowboy]

We did have a lot of artificial stimulation that has to be unwound now that we have a strong economy. The Fed still has 4.5 trillion of assrts they bought during the slump that they have to unwind and are also making noise about a 100 basic point increase in interest rates this year. All this is typically negative for equitys. That being said, its certainly not Obama's "fault".

[rjv]

There are few to none indicators of recession in the US or international economies. Where are you getting that?

There are a lot of assets that just do not have the intrinsic value that they were traded for because instead of production the Fed and central banks have been injecting free money into the financial markets, which have also benefited from reduced capital gains taxes for almost a decade. Corporations have also been buying back shares and paying off dividends to the tune of over $1,000,000,000,000 per year for the past seven years. Another omen is the number of margin buying by small investors that has taken place over the past several years. And globally, there all sorts of signs, especially in Japan and the Emerging Market economy stock markets.

Was just reading that over 50% of 'Muricans don't have any stake on the stock market (own stock, 401ks, etc, and, incidentally, it's mostly the wealthy Americans that do).

So unless you're buying into trickle down, or you have a stake yourself in the game, these swings don't really affect as many people as it first seem, relatively speaking.

It does affect the economy, but mostly because what the economy produces largely ends up in the wealthiest sectors, which happen to be the ones that gamble that money away.

Quiet. People don't want to be accused of having more in common with the 1% than the down trodden. It doesn't fit the agenda on ST.

[rjv]

a 10% correction in less than one week with signs of going to 20%? hope not too many small-time investors went out there and bought on the dip as TV pundits would have suggested. rather than give out such irresponsible advice they should have been discussing the actions of quant sellers in regards to the EFT 'derivatives'. anyway, as i said a few days ago, and i'll say again, the fall will likely be external and there were signs that this will be the case when the Yuan fell and there are signs of capital flight in China now. Emerging Market economies are unstable, Europe is fragile (Italy is really fragile at the moment). Margin buying is also going to come back and bite us as will all the other bubbles that have been building over the last 8 years.

Eh... I'll keep buying. I don't use the stock market for short term investing. Any money I have in there will stay there for years/decades.

Eyup. Stock market corrections are, for long term investors, simply good opportunities to buy cheap. Dollar cost averaging FTW.

100%

[hater]

So in 2008 we all lost 30%

Sure we got some back but next crash will lose us 40% or more IMO

so in the end will the ppl that as you say put in their money for decades, will they really make $ or lose $ in the end? Probably break even imo or make a measly 7%... so bad investment imo

Bullshit, the plain ol' S&P has averaged around 11% even after you factor in the down years. People that jump in and out are the ones losing money.

I don't plan on pulling a penny out in 5 years or less. If shit tanks, I keep buying. And when it goes back up (it always does), I have that much more growth.

Same here. I might shift some investments, but I won't cash out anything.

Some stocks are overvalued, interest rates are rising....but the real economy is growing over 3% annually so I suspect the market swings are over blown.

I just spoke to my portfolio manager Monday. He's a veteran--my dad has used him for probably close to 20 years...and now ME and stuff I am doing for my daughter.

I'm 45 now and he's said that if midterms go heavily republican we're going to up my risk/yield dramatically. If it goes Dem we're going to pull way back

Ducks is right on this one. GDP number today came in at 3.5%

It's your standard pre-election volatility for the robotraders to syphon off the top of inactive 401K's.

Create sell-off, drive prices down, buy back at lower cost with minimized loss.

There are signs of contagion in the global market. NASDAQ, Blue Chip, Japanese and Chinese stocks have all been down. Latin America economies are collapsing because of the rising dollar which resulted from the Fed raising its rates once again. These fed rate hikes are spilling over into the bond markets. Last March, there was a 1,000 point drop, followed by a dead cat bounce of about six months (predictable), that showed investors were getting skittish. Is this current drop a one-time thing again or is this more fundamental? There is no way the Fed can raise the rates four more times, as Powell promised, without creating a credit crunch. The Fed overreacted in 2008 and it seems to be doing the same again by raising rates too fast and for too long. Naturally, Trump is upset with Fed for this but the Fed has no choice because it has to finance the $1,000,000,000,000 a year deficit caused by Trump's tax cuts. You have to raise rates to get people to buy the U.S. Treasury bonds in order to finance this deficit.

Known Stock Market Leverage Hits WTF High. Out the Other Side of its Mouth, the Fed Warns about Hidden Leverage that Blew up Archegos (https://wolfstreet.com/2021/05/18/known-stock-market-leverage-hits-wtf-high-out-the-other-side-of-its-mouth-the-fed-warns-about-hidden-leverage-that-blew-up-archegos/)

Margin debt is just the visible tip of the iceberg of leverage, and it reached the zoo-has-gone-nuts level.

[Winehole23]

Out of the other side of its mouth, the Fed – via its blissfully ignored Financial Stability Report (https://www.federalreserve.gov/publications/files/financial-stability-report-20210506.pdf) – is warning about leverage, stock market leverage, and particularly the vast and unknown parts of leverage among hedge funds and insurance companies.


It named names: The family office Archegos, a private hedge fund that has to disclose very little, and that then blew up because none of the brokers providing it with leverage knew about the other brokers also providing leverage, and no one knew how much total leverage the outfit had. The amount of leverage didn’t come out until it blew up.And this form of hidden leverage is not included in the known stock market margin debt reported monthly by FINRA, based on reports by its member brokerage firms.


This known stock market leverage is an indicator of the trend in leverage, the tip of the iceberg. History shows that a big surge in margin balances preceded and perhaps was a precondition for the biggest stock market declines.


In April, it exploded to a new WTF high of $847 billion, up by $188 billion in six months, having ascended to the zoo-has-gone-nuts level:


https://wolfstreet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/US-margin-debt-1999_2020-2021-05-18.png
In this type of chart that covers two decades during which the purchasing power of the dollar has dropped, long-term increases in absolute dollar amounts are not the focal point; but the steep increases in margin debt before the selloffs are.
