Stock Market: Correction or Crash?

No bounce on close, collateral damage coming as good assets get sold to make margin call?

Keynesian (central bank) bubble just exploded in the market stratosphere this afternoon. 1,600 point drop, the largest daily drop ever . . .

A record no doubt, I wonder how much value was taken off the books today.
Percentage wise it doesn't crack the top 20

CNBC reports $1 trillion has been trimmed from stock market since Feb 1. And while today's drop does not make top 20 in percentage terms, if you add the loss from last Friday when the selloff really started, it ranks as 17th largest percentage loss in history. Unfortunately, it is not likely over.

I'll wait until the brokers start jumping off the rooftops. Then maybe something interesting will be happening.

If I'm not Trump, then Certainly it must be the fault of global warming. After all everything else has been blamed on that

well they did say it would crash when trump got in , the part they missed is that it would nearly double first , lol. but yes surely it is because of global warming (that didn't work out , so mustnt call it that anymore ) , er , I mean , climate change , er no, accelerated climate change . surely the. coming spring will be a sure sign of accelerated climate change . colder than Siberia out here but I realize that's just weather , now
wonder why that hot spell that Ontario and Quebec had in the fall was a sure sign of global warming according to the climatards???? saw it right on national news

So if money’s coming out of the stock market does that mean it’s going to come back into commodities?
Hope so.
