Because the clown car is being run by a guy who is functionally illiterate, ignorant. It's about what he can say at a rally, on TV or on twitter, not about any kind of 'reality'...This rate cut is 100% political...another 'save me save me', response.

The market reacting to the renunciation of Sanders progressive policies with Biden’s primary victories?

Partly correct but also due to a phenomenon known as a dead cat bounce.

No. If that was the case, then the market wouldn't have tanked yesterday.

It is probably a result of algorithmic trading.

Yeah, I kinda get that from this thread too.

It's interesting to watch the daily waves, I look at it long term though as far as my accounts go.

We all knew this was going to be a wild ride this year and the market hasn't disappointed.

I'm not a big fan of the market going up or down rapidly. The recent volatility just reinforces my feeling that nobody knows what they are doing.
