The market may not make sense to you, but that doesn't mean it's not efficient. The fact is that all macroeconomic information is reflected in asset prices, so even if the Fed raises rates by 25bps, it won't have a significant impact on the markets.

oh it makes perfect sense when you factor in crime and authority bodies meant to police it being corrupt

I think we need to add another category. Around an IQ of ~40 there are the people who think everything is rigged and the market makers prey on retail.

That's just something people like Jim Cramer say: "The market is fOrWarD lOOkInG" oOOOoH. They aren't, plain and simple. 2 banks crash and the market goes into a frenzy, one week later it's booming and doesn't care whatsoever about what just happened. Just look a chart of spy before and during 2008, the market didn't start falling until the grim reaper was staring them in the face and no one could deny crisis was upon us.

The markets probably do make sense, there are just so many constantly changing input variables that we just don’t possess the capacity to actually make sense of it.

Tbh honest sometimes I wish I was regarded so I could find at least some kind of logic to this regarded market.

When you can’t beat the wave just ride with it. Sooner you stop complaining and start complying, things will start to make sense. Otherwise just get the fuck out and don’t gamble anymore.

Efficient Market Hypothesis is at odds with Behavioral Economics, where people are absolutely not making well informed and maximally efficient decisions. Just look around for a bit. Not all retail traders yolo calls for the up boats, but there's plenty who buy Tesla thinking it's a good company, when in reality their balance sheets have always been dog shit.

When the market make no sense to the expert and analyst, it mean there is either fraud or we all going to be fucked, big time.

The market makes no sense. I just buy calls in uptrend and puts in downtrends to collect free money regardless. The rest is noise.

The markets don't make sense because people's emotions tend to over compensate to the point of irrational behavior.

This deep and elusive logic you dumdums are looking for is literally just:

printer go brrrr, stock market go up

People who say anything more complex than this are literally the modern versions of witch doctors trying to convince you of some bullshit.

“But what about bank uncertainty or less available cash or bond yields or blah blah blah.”

Shut up nerd. Throw your money in stocks.

“But we’ve been kicking the can down the road. Debt is too high. The fed can’t service it. They can’t print money forever. Higher rates. Ron Paul said…”

Shut up nerd. Throw your money in stocks

There, I have cleared everything up for you and taught you the market. You’re welcome.

Logic is: Market was in uptrend entire year, bank crisis fucked it, bank crisis wasn't real, it was just SVB poor management, deposits are returning, fed loans are being returned, market reverses the loss, bears threw life savings into puts for some reason, short squeeze. Bulls realize the strength of this market, they don't want to be left behind because market is already down -20% from the highs so it's not a bad buying oppurtunity anyways.

Left I don't understand and I don't even know why I don't understand.

Middle, I learned a thing and think I understand but I don't know what underlying assumptions are and why I should care about them because I know a thing.

Right I don't understand but I know why I don't understand.

You seem to know how to write and maybe even read. Should probably work on your reading comprehension though. And I think Jim Cramer is as big of an idiot as the next guy but in this instance you are truly regarded.

When people say markets are forward looking what they mean is that they try to predict tomorrow's profits based on past and present information. A bank collapse represents new information that wasn't available previously. It takes a while for that information to fully work it's way through the market because it requires new analysis.

The efficient market idea is regarded. People are terrible about pricing things in, massive information asymmetries, plus irrational behavior and plain stupidity

Ben Graham (famous beta male investor) talked about this in terms of personification calling the market Mr. Market. He said sometimes Mr. Market feels great and has tons of energy and goes way way up. And sometimes Mr. Market feels sad and low and goes way down. Over time the feelings trend logically but day to day or even month to month they make no sense.

Now idk about that regarded shit I just said but I think Ben was trying to explain his cocaine habit to someone when he wrote this.

The market makes sense. It’s purpose is to take money from one set of people and give it to another. Kind of like taxes!

You're a dumbass. Any model will have a range of assumptions a good model will account to solve extent for those assumptions changing. However if a new event happens they alters the likely range of those assumptions then updates need to be made.

The best way to explain the market is WH40k orks. It works because we (the orks) believe it works, and it doesn't work when we don't believe in it. We need a financial WAAGH to start a bull run.

Some things make perfect sense though.

Like the FED raising interest rates and the economy contracting because of it...
