I think the ARKs volatility outperform the index averages when they go up. They certainly outstrip the averages when the movement is downward.

We had a 10 yr bull run (1/2015-12/2024) and they underperformed over 10 yrs. I guess the whipping they took in 2022 was enough to underperform over 10 yrs....

I'd be fascinated to find out who put the rumor out and how they got it to take. Highly likely someone who needed some exit liquidity. It will also be interesting, given that the rumor was shot down, if the market can more or less hold its current level instead of going back to the morning lows. If it does, that probably marks some sort of a short term bottom because the selling just got exhausted.

We rallied pretty strongly off the lows before the tariff suspension rumor (from 9:45 - 10 AM). I think the gap down open + the first 15 minutes might have been some kind of short-term capitulation.

How big an issue is no rate cut from the Fed the last time and now talk about holding the line again?

Also how big is the Chinese market booming, with big government stimulus in terms of free money to banks explicitly to loan at very low rate to citizens to buy stocks? And the idea here that China may be undervalued? I recently saw an article in The Telegraph (I think) about the latter and also about the Chinese chip.

That was cruel. I hope that the SEC combs through the sellers and flush the scoundrels out. Put them in jail. But if it was Russia or China of NK or Iran behind it, what can they do?

That was the market version of "JK, LOL". This is wild.

No, that was the flash crash in 2012. And then the government going in after and declaring which trades would be nulled and a which would be stuck eating the 💩sandwich. The “fat finger.”

But this is not nothing.

April 9th may end being the ugliest day since Black Monday. Don't see anyone blinking.

It is telling that the markets are still way off the lows (for now) even though the rumor that caused the moonshot was shot down.

"Wall Street's main indexes reversed course and moved sharply higher after White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett said in an interview that President Donald Trump was considering a 90-day tariff pause on all countries expect China." Oh, Kevin you rascal
