       Today the stock market has crashed... down to the level it was at 2 months ago.

       @ZachWeinersmith Polarization, exaggeration, and sensationalism are just the natural outcome of for-profit media.

       @ZachWeinersmith That's not a crash.

       @ZachWeinersmith If your financial life depends on a 3-month-cycle, that’s an issue.

       @ZachWeinersmith Been watching crypto "crash" since last night and it's already rebounding.

       @ZachWeinersmith the old stock market rule is "sell in May and go away", historically there's pretty much always a market correction in the summer as inventories reach their highest points as companies start piling up the crap for Christmas. All we really need to do is add a summer seasonal holiday.

       @sophieschmieg Very small. Stock market's still up 10%ish on the year. I think everyone's just waiting for the AI bubble to pop valuations, but part of the problem is the relevant companies are raking in money hand over fist for non-LLM stuff.

       @ZachWeinersmith is that bad enough to warrant jumping out ground floor windows?

       @ZachWeinersmith This isn't a massive "crash", to be fair, it's a mere correction (I'd say wait til sometime between September and the election if #KamalaHarris beats #Trump for a true crash), but pretending that what is happening today is not important or consequential is not wise.

       @ZachWeinersmith This is just a market reset to take profits to feed maga treachery.

       @ZachWeinersmith This isn't a crash. A crash involves an unexpected, abrupt, double-digit plummet in the stock index. This was only a 2.7% drop in the Dow index. This is a correction.

       @ZachWeinersmith @sophieschmieg When AI markets get corrected then doubtlessly more investors are going to pitch into the housing bubble. Their emperors have no clothes.

       @ZachWeinersmith "Has crashed" makes it sound like nobody did this.  That's an assertion.

       @byggvir @gbwust @slcw @brownsbayExactly, that's the point. People who write headlines are calling it a "crash" and that's out of proportion.infosec.exchange/@sophieschmie…
