I survived the war in Iraq and I was on the trading floor at Lehman Bros when it went bankrupt. Been through Brexit, FTX , 10/10...and countless other market stresses and risk events.
And here we are....back in the tail. Stay around long enough...you always end up back in the tail.
Another significant market stress. Bid/offers are wide; liquidity is low. Extreme fear, volatility, stress and uncertainty.
Definitely not the first. Nor will it be the last.
There are always opportunities during crisis.
It's when the best, long term relationships are formed.
And when the best investment opportunities surface for those who can find truth/signal through the noise.
It's also when bad actors get flushed out.
Once things settle, market structure will again rewire and adapt...forcing accountability.
Stay safe; manage risk. Build those relationships and find those opportunities.
