– No need to panic over what happened earlier this week.
– While Monday was the largest point drop in history, it was nowhere near the worst drop in terms of percentages. Black Monday in the 80’s was 21%, this was 7%.
– This is not the end of the volatility however. This is a normal correction cycle. We’re do for a 10% and 20% correction.
– The market corrected because The Fed sold off a part of their balance sheet after years of quantative easing. They warned they would do this last year and are finally pulling the trigger.
