You can't make this up: At 6:00 PM ET, US stock market futures opened for the first time since Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted to a "relationship" with a Chinese spy. By 6:01 PM ET, S&P 500 futures had erased an implied -$300 billion in market cap. Then, by 6:07 PM ET, all losses were erased and S&P 500 futures turned green, adding back an implied +$350 billion in market cap as traders bought the dip. That's a $650 billion swing in implied market cap due to a CEO's relationship. We all just witnessed the strangest record in stock market history.

BREAKING: South Korea’s KOSPI collapses -9%, triggering a trading halt, after opening for the first time since today’s US market decline. The index is now down -47% from its record high.
What just happened? The Nasdaq 100 just posted its largest daily drop since the 2020 Pandemic, with the S&P 500 erasing -$3 trillion today. Just 24 hours ago, the Dow surged +1,600 points after the Democrats "swept" the Midterms. So, what changed? Let us explain. (a thread)

BREAKING: The Volatility Index, $VIX, surges over +70% on the day, on track for its biggest daily gain since February 2018. Not even March 2020 saw a daily jump in volatility like we are seeing now.

Absolute insanity. In just 40 minutes, the S&P 500 has now erased -$2 trillion in market cap. The entire post-Midterm Election rally has been erased in a matter of minutes. This is one of the fastest market cap losses in stock market history.
