We are experiencing an ETF

    Posted by mmellow on 12th of Mar 2020 at 07:09 pm

    We are experiencing an ETF funds of funds (of funds of funds of funds) sell off.  According  to statia.com ,  at the end  2019 there were 6,970 ETF's globally.  XOM according  to Fidelity is held by a crazy number, 252 different types of ETF's.   Most of which passively managed. As the ETF's walked the stairway to HEAVEN (overvaluation) we're now riding the eleavator back to EARTH.
    A black swan (CvD19)  "flu" in, just as theSaudis split from the Russians and OPEC cut prices while  increasing production in an all out attack on the  US shale (over leveraged/valued on fumes) industry.  Money flooded into treasury's causing rates to crash (the feds should have let the markets work) which impact ability of banks to make profits. 

    More ETF's in the world than meaningful stocks to trade.  When the 272 ETF computers hear or read the words XOM, the algo's go to work. When will the ETF algo's start up the stairs?  

    CLO's will be the next,  if the Saudi's win the price war.  Thankfully, Matt and Steve are here to keep us grounded.  Patiently Optimistic
