Not just shorts
Other than the "run" scenario (which has existed since the days of Venetian banking), there is no material evidence of a special risk that has emerged in the last two weeks.
Look at how SCHW was driven down 20% for nothing...talk about easy money...thank you for selling me SCHW at a 20% discount
Now its FRC...please show me tangible material evidence that it is going to collapse
This feels like a contrived sell off to give some traders a new entrypoint
