  1. Always risky shorting in the hole, though. Generally, not advisable. :)

    You're probably right.

    My view is that if the bottom breaks (as I thought it was going to break for the last 30 minutes), we go on the double to -7% or 5300-ish. All air below from here, dip buyers will throw in the towel, imho.

    But maybe I'm just a TDS ultrabear :D

    Edit: some stocks now down 20% even with the uptick rule...

  6. For the record - I'm very bearish medium term / long term. If at any point I post a long call that's just intraday trading. Like earlier this week. I'm sure this will see sub 5000 SPX soon enough.

    It remains to be seen if Trump gets a change of heart when he sees the effects of his actions or if he will stay on course...

    But that's just my opinion - which is worth less than the ash of a cigarette in the big picture. :)

    Well, to be fair, I think it’s the 10% baseline tariffs for Switzerland.

    EDIT: Oh no … 31% for Switzerland.
