Correct, i should have said i think they'll dump into BTC to offset some of the "losses" that purely holding bonds would cause.

and in reality these are massive algorithm driven funds that are just waiting to pull the trigger with cash set aside, albeit a tiny amount compared to conventional markets. its a self fulfilling prophecy, the bots look for the same market reaction upwards then mass buy which shifts it higher.

i worded it poorly, probably because my focus is really only on crypto, as my retirement account is just a generic TSM index fund that i dont play with at all.


it's mainly true
but i suspect we're missing one thing
the collusion, even of the skynet, even in immeasurably seemingly insignificant amounts, propagated over time (like an entire second (eternity)), does indeed actually generate an intentional intenful result. it unleashes the power of market losses to cyphon vast quantities of microdollars in less than micro seconds. now, if you want to know why or who or what or when or how..... etc............. follow the money. who is profiting from a 3k drop in the index? who is raping the world in this short week via the coordinated market attack that we have seen?
when you find that leaf, the leaf on the stem on the branch of the money tree, you will see that the leaf is actually the end result of the root system. no pun intended.

People, do not panic. Remember: this is a dip, not a crash.

A crash could happen if the Coronavirus spreads to the extent where economic activity will be seriously affected, and it's anyone's guess whether that will happen or not. On the one hand, new infections in China have stabilised which show the virus can be contained, however we need to see what happens in Europe (particularly the spread from Italy into France and Austria), as well as the US.

Attempting to time the market is more risky than holding tight in most cases. This might be slightly hypocritical coming from a guy who's certainly going to buy a load of stocks in the event of a further drop of 20-30% but at that point you can reason the markets have pretty much bottomed out.

Another scenario:

China will force people to go back to work and more deaths will occurs, yet we are not sure if actual China numbers are even true. China lied on its GDP, on its population amounts... It's all build numbers.

Others countries will show real numbers and more likely stop their economies in the same way... Till a certain point then people will finally resolve to "live" (and die...) with the disease, rampant.

Because it cannot be stopped, just curved to avoid a complete chaos spike. All this could happen and would trigger the recession cycle.
