80 million shares of SPY traded today in one hour. I believe the post 2009 Max was 500 million in a day during the ETF flash crash in 2015. Retail is getting the gently caress out too

I'll probably lose my job over this, and I don't have much in savings, and my parents are even more broke than I am. I just have to hope my software engineer girlfriend can support me while everything is on fire. I would not survive homelessness for more than about 2 days. but I'm still partying through doomsday because I want Bernie to win by Obama numbers and sweep 48 states, turning the senate blue

You know, I was joking a while back that Bernie might be the first president to win all 50 primary states but now I'm starting to think it might actually happen.

oxsnard posted:the next thing to look out for is junk bonds, especially the junk etfs. Stocks and stock ETFs both have good liquidity most times. Since the junk bond ETFs trade on stock exchanges they have tons of liquidity, whereas the underlying bonds don't. Lots of bonds packaged up in JNK and HYG only trade a few times a day. Hedge fund managers park money in these ETFs as a quasi money market fund, but once there is an actual default fear, the market is gonna start dumping the junk bond ETFs. The ETFs will sell faster than they can liquidate the underlying bond holdings which is going to be hilarious when it finally plays out. A sustained coronavirus impact on global supply chains is gonna be chaos on these mechanics. bumping this. So a bunch of pension funds and the harvard endowment sold off a bunch of their bond portfolio and switched over to HYG. Watch the HYG ETF, it's holding up for now, but if it starts making GBS threads the bed then it's time to truly panic

Gotta love waking up and seeing over 300 posts in this thread! I, being an incredibly smart individual, decided to put a good chunk of my TSP in the safe and boring G fund. Except that poo poo takes forever as someone in some federal office somewhere probably has to go to get a folder and type everything manually I guess? I'm down like $9k dollars already lmao.

The cool thing about the stocks is it doesn't matter if you don't own any, if they go down you get the bill for the losses anyways.
