Social media is doing its best to drive down the stock market. That’s nothing new, but the volume is cranking up and a Fed rate cut may possibly be the only tool left to keep the SPX at lofty levels. Of course, ironically, a cut implies the economy is weaking (the economy is not the stock market, kids). Regardless, I’m in the camp that believes we’ll experience a significant pullback over the next few months, but I’m not positioned short. However, my stops are in place and I haven’t shifted to cash or equivalents.

Good for next Apple iPhone cycle?
How many phones out there are due for an upgrade or how many models behind are the majority of iPhones?
Look at all the models 11, 12 and 13. That’s 77% of iPhones users who have a model that will be 3-5 years old. pic.twitter.com/92PqC3pcsN

Bitcoin has been a beast:

This seems bad:
We are now at 459 consecutive days (and counting) of record global sea surface temperatures, beginning March 14, 2023.
This mayhem started well before last year's El Niño had any influence. Expecting ocean temperatures to return to their pre-2023 levels this year is a fantasy. pic.twitter.com/qY4xgUyJ6l
