Reddit r/stocks subgroup headlined: "Internal Nasdaq damage: More than 45% of stocks down 50%. More than 22% of stocks down 75%. More than 5% of stocks down 90%."
After reading cheerleaders belch hot with their wisdom and prowess regarding real-by-golly true stock valuations, market fundamentals, the need for CFA credentials (certified financial something or the other), the awesomeness of books they are reading that explain all mysteries of the Universe such as "The Intelligent Investor", and myriad subdiscussions around such topics, after perusing such, the following comment was posted:
Just asking .....
Some people are going to see karma run over their dogma.
Wife works for a VERY LARGE data firm, first time in 15 years they’ve missed a quarterly sales target and the stock took a HUGE hit, wiping out about 30% of our investment.
Bond market crashing as well. No longer a “safe haven.” Wait until Q3 financial statements reach investors-just prior to election. “Hey honey! Where did our $$$ go?”
Except money is fleeing bonds too - BND is down 15% YTD. That said, I don’t do reddit so couldn’t tell you.
It would/will be pretty interesting to watch the MSM report on a stock market crash. How many words will they use to avoid saying Stock Market Crash? How oh how will they ‘explain’ a stock market crash without triggering an investigation by The Ministry of Truth
I am learning how to make a sausage substitute out of black-eyed peas.
There are reasons.

This is called a correction.
Hope in the stock market gets replaced by recognition of reality.
Money is being taken out of stocks to buy real estate, which in many areas still is realistically priced.
In my Florida area, real estate is probably 60% overpriced. That’s still much lower than many stocks.
I thought that the bond market going down was good?
Rush used to explain that all the time, but I forget the details.
Bill Clinton was even ridiculed for citing how good the ‘bond market’ was doing, while the stock market sucked
From what I read, that is worthless also. Real estate seem to be a place to park money, but even that is rather dubious with inflation spiraling out of control.

Seriously, all property owners, now and future, should be aware of BlackRock’s role.
Watch the video linked above (4 minutes).
Well, the be fair, bond markets aren’t a good place to park money. They are going to crash when the Fed gets around to pushing the interest rates to where they need to go to get real inflation back down in the single digits.
As for commercial real estate, it will falter as leases run out, and companies downsize space because of WFH and hybrid models.
Inflation will help stock prices and CRE prices over time, but won’t help with real value.
Excellent comment.
OF COURSE reddit mods/autocensorbots would have removed it.
Check this out from the Twittsewer.
Rooffie might have got his widdle fee-fees hurt, so the autobot saved him.
Money (Institutional) leaving the market is programmed to the bond market.
The bond market fall off is due primarily to foreign Institutional money departing because the US (Fed Reserve) dollar is no longer safe. That’s a Brandon effect.
Yes, and this is what some of the 'redistribution' criminals want. It's just another form of aggression and theft by your out of control, incompetent, and in many cases hateful government. They are too stupid (and arrogant) to know how much they are greasing the skids to civil war - and too delusional to know what that will mean for their lives.
Wifey’s company just cut a LARGE number of people. Financial company. Pretty wow. I’ll bet a lot of companies are cutting all of a sudden, but the media is not going to report it.
One of the more brilliant comments I've seen in a LONG time which is relevant to the present paradigm.
2000 - Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) hits $120 per share
2002 - Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) crashes to $20 per share
That was an 84% crash!
As to bonds...
Remember - when interest rates rise, the re-sale value of a bond falls.
If you are in short term bonds - 1 year or less - that is not a big deal. You just hold to maturity.
If you buy a 10 year bond - but, need cash a few years down the road - you will take a serious loss on your original investment when you try to sell the bond if interest rates keep rising.
Since inflation and Fed policy both indicate that higher interest rates are coming, the prudent choice today is to stay in short term debt securities like FDIC insured bank CDs or three month U.S. Treasury Bills.
Are you saying “flipping” the SWIFT switch and blocking most banks from a country being allowed to use their money sends a bad message?...
