The threat of rising interest rates should come as no surprise to anyone, but "the market" has been carrying on about this for over six months now.

One day it's a huge concern and the market drops but two days later the market has risen again and interest rates are apparently not a problem.

It appears to me "the market", whoever or whatever it is, is trying to dictate policy to Powell & Co. This sell off is beyond belief.

I have this crazy notion that if there was nothing to be gained in a declining market, then the falls we have seen would have been far less. But Short Selling will continue unabated I'm sure: too many vested interests.

The Stock Market itself is a reasonable system but has become a vehicle for all the con men shonks and shysters on the planet.

If I had a BitCoin where could I spend it????

Cheers!!!
