Bulls, it turns out that in 2022 you were fed a big load of bull shit.
What was supposed to be an imminent Fed bailout turned out to be record tightening in a recessionary bear market.

World’s Central Banks Unleash Most Hawkish Campaign Since 1980s
The world’s central bankers are unleashing what may prove to be the most aggressive tightening of monetary policy since the 1980s, risking recessions and roiling financial markets as they rush to tackle the surge in inflation they didn’t see coming.
Today is a massive monthly OPEX so anything could happen. Algos love to crush vol ahead of long weekends to monetize time decay (theta). However, the S&P is camped at the 200 week moving average.

The S&P 500 is within 1% of its 2021 lows.
Everyone who owns any stock is basically underwater and losing more money daily.
If 1 of 10 investors say “fuck it, bear market I’m out”, that’s a 4+ trillion dollar sell order.
Who can absorb that? The Ponzi is going to crash.

More than 90% of stocks in the S&P 500 declined today.
It's the 5th time in the past 7 days.
Since 1928, there have been exactly 0 precedents. This is the most overwhelming display of selling in history.

A Perfect Storm in Banking Is Brewing
Now that interest rates are rising with much further to go, the global banking system faces a crisis on a scale like no other in history.
Full Force of Central Banks Siphoning World Liquidity
Coordinated or not ahead of this month’s G7 summit, global central banks are accelerating interest rate hikes but also actively draining the giant pool of cash swilling around world markets and buoying currencies to stymie imported inflation.

May industrial production rose just .2%, half the rise expected, while factory output fell .1%, verses expectations of a .5% gain. Clearly #inflation has already pushed the U.S. #economy into a #recession. Plus, lower production means less supply and higher prices. #Stagflation.

No, this is the MARGINAL mortgage payment. If you’re out, Jerome Powell has assured you stay out. If you’re in, you’re stuck. Sounds like a solution in search of a problem… or designed to create one. t.co/hgPZHbuflm
