Markets Bottomed on the Exact Day Mnuchin Met with PPT

Okay, so let’s not delve into conspiracies about some secret group that was quite literally formed during the Reagan administration for the explicit purposes of buoying share prices (12631) — but markets pretty much bottomed on the exact day Mnuchin announced he was meeting with them.

Whether that the “the bottom” remains to be seen. But it should be noted, for the sake of future generations, that this happened.

    I don’t get why people are so offended by the mere concept of the PPT.

    Well, my invesmetn account is 100% cash/Agency bonds.

    My trading account is also cash heavy, but still short NFLX/long QQQ, near nuetral in magnitude except overall bearish because of NFLX’s high beta.

      Maybe they are a buyout target.

        DIS is launching its streaming service later this year.
        AMZN already got its streaming service.
        AAPL is the new MSFT.

          sarcasm

          How do you think it got to a 100+ PE?

          BTW Apple has also announced it is launching a streaming service, and even when it hired TV and Film execs to run it, there were *still* “AAPL will buy NFLX” rumors

    Anyone who watched the tick by tick action that day can tell you the market appeared to be manipulated. If so, likely for someone’s political gain.
