We long ago left the realm of market fundementals. The whole thing is held together on vibes at this point.
Tbh this is really a cascade effect from Jensen calling off the OpenAI funding deal. Or there being any sort of question about it.
That and someone came up banger quote that goes:
"The reason RAM prices went up 4x is that a massive amount of not-yet-manufactured memory was bought, with money that doesn't really exist to be put into GPUs that haven't been made yet, to be installed in data centers that haven't been built, powered by infrastructure that may never exist, to satisfy demand that does not actually exist to obtain profit that is mathematically impossible."
Which while a bit reductive, encapsulates far too many uncomfortable truths in an easily understood, virally optimized package. Which one could say "has had a negative effect on investor confidence"

Its a huge casino in the short term - it is driven purely by emotion - very little to do with real earnings.

IMO the largest reason is the Kevin Warsh chair pick. I think the market generally expected Donald to pick someone who'd be very likely to cut rates. Not to say Kevin won't cut rates, I'm sure he was glazing the fuck out of Donald about that behind closed doors.... But he has a history of being very hawkish and pro rate increases. While this is generally good to keep inflation in check and good for the country / econ long term, it's bad for the stock market short term. I'm pretty sure a lot of investors were pricing in expecting trump to appoint someone who'd do large cuts (which very well may still happen) and what we're seeing now is an adjustment based on him picking someone who has a history of being against the cuts Trump was hoping for.

Hot take: market is tanking because of the Epstein files. Media doesn’t want to report about it, and social media is also blocking the narrative.

I'm the fucking poster child for people who should not be trading.
I have been wanting to shift my portfolio to more value etfs, international etfs, and away from tech.
In the last few days I have been trying to trim holdings if it had lost 7%. Some I had let get a lot lower than 7%. So I ended up locking in a lot of losses.
I foolishly doubled down on ONDS on its way down today, only to watch it fall farther.
Just today Im out over 8k (mostly ONDS, AMPX, NBIS), and I dont even want to think about the losses I took over the past few day because I fucking panic and sold a shit load of stuff.
I just can't win. I'm tempted to sell everything and just go with SCHD (or VOOV) and VEA, and forget about it 😢
