The ol pump and dump?
If I had to guess... the markets about to rip like a community college student at a house party just chimping out, for the next 9 months. Then the hangover will hit.

If they really do pause hikes due to this bank fiasco, then there really must be something systemically concerning. If that's the case we're probably fucked. They seemed to have inflation tamed to a point where there really could have been a soft landing (some stagflation) but if poor decision making by the banks leads to an unplanned pause, I bet inflation comes back. Imo it was originally caused by equalish parts QE, supply chain issues, and natural greed. The first two are basically gone, if markets keep pumping and jobs reports stay hot, companies won't lower prices even if they can. Shit will hit the fan eventually.
 
The depositors taking any losses would have been a complete disaster and created bank runs across the country. What would you have proposed they do?
 
It's interesting - and a little weird - to me that crypto suddenly turned into the "safe haven" of choice for some over the weekend.

Gonna be a fun couple of weeks to see how this all shakes out.

Max pain (where most option contracts expire useless) level is around SPY 400.. So this week could be very interesting.

400 spy calls are trading at 0.60 right now
 
rates no longer going up and now potentially projected to fall 50-100 basis points will throw fuels on the fire
