To me this is a FAKE SELL OFF when you look at reasons why … Economic conditions are no better or worst than a month ago? Still, the experienced PROs & pit traders may try to catch folks napping on market RISKS … Just like BITCOIN sell off — sudden realities cause a shift of sentiment. GOVT shutdown II is only thing that keeps me from going back into equities — but I might start buying gradually some on these massive dips (whether falling knives or not) … this is likely just a cyclical needed correction to reset valuations & higher we go from there 8)
