Fed Actions
Currently, bank deposits are insured for an unlimited amount, although the official limit remains at $250,000. Banks can now borrow from the Fed by using securities that have lost value at their original price. To explain this program in simpler terms, if a bank bought a bond for $1000 and it has since dropped in value to $700, the bank can still borrow $1000 using the $700 bond as…

2022 Experienced Significant Outflows
In 2022, the financial markets in Europe and North America experienced significant outflows, causing concern among investors and market analysts.

Last trading day of Aug 2022
We would need a -7% to make a lower low for the year and near a +7% to take the high of Aug.
Aug was a “bipolar” month. First, we have a run of near 6% in 12 trading days and later are experiencing a -7.8% in 12 trading days. If today we end up having a flat day the SPX is likely to end up negative for the month and near -16% for the year. SPX is near -16% YTD and shows 3 consecutive Quarterly Candles pic.twitter.com/pTkJihSYO1— Mario Randholm (@MarioRandholm) August 31, 2022 It is…

How is the market bottom confirm?
Are you considering the the bottom might not occur during 2022? Of course, nobody knows with certainty. The ultimate sign is that nobody wants to buy. The comments related to investing almost become toxic. https://twitter.com/user/status/1536777346451222529
