On the plus side, despite dropping 18% in 1990, the market finished just barely in the red by years end. And then 1991 was a 30%+ year.

I don't see history repeating in this case though.

Crazy to think the 3bn crypto market might be down to 250bn by Friday. Shit is just crashing through all support now and these big exchanges are going to start failing.

Part of crypto problem is I never saw it have true support levels like equities do. BTC has no fundamentals. It's just... BTC.

Good equities will never go to zero because they have a book value. They have stuff. I recall Macy's being assraped years ago and then it just stopped falling. Why? Because the market cap hit the value of the block of Midtown Manhattan it owned. The company was worth shit but Heritage Square was worth billions.

Ps.. that store is amazing. A seven? Story department store the size of a Manhattan city block.

Well, in that regard crypto is more like a currency- which is supposed to be the whole idea behind crypto*currencies* anyway. Currencies can certainly go to zero.

13:30 *(US) MAY PPI FINAL DEMAND M/M: 0.8% V 0.8%E; Y/Y: 10.8% V 10.9%E
- PPI Final (ex-food/energy) M/M: 0.5% v 0.6%e; Y/Y: 8.3% v 8.6%e
- PPI Final (ex-food/energy/trade) MoM: 0.5% v 0.6%e; Y/Y: 6.8% v 6.9%e

PPI just slightly under estimates.. queue the talking heads resuming the "peak inflation" narrative.

COLA skimming is going to be a figure in the trillions. We knew this going into things. If the gov went by the real numbers it wouldn't be stealing from us at maximum capacity.

We are finally seeing true surrender in the markets. ABBV is finally being sold down.
