Absolute insanity.
In just 40 minutes, the S&P 500 has now erased -$2 trillion in market cap.
The entire post-Midterm Election rally has been erased in a matter of minutes.
This is one of the fastest market cap losses in stock market history.

Oil is flowing from the Middle East but gas prices are nowhere near prewar level. An unseen factor is the insurance expense. All in, a cargo ship is incurring nearly another $10M in insurance expense because of the Iran War. If that remains don't expect gas prices to drop soon.

Is it me or are there so many disconnects in the market right now? Stock market is up, 10 yr yields keep rising, steady inflation creep, good GDP numbers. For every positive, there seems to be a negative.
Does the economy start to rip once the Iran war ends?

Looking for some historical context regarding unemployment and the 10-year? Last time the 10-year was actually at 5.24% was June 2006, unemployment 4.6%. Today: 5.24%, openings 7.08 million, unemployment 4.1%.
BREAKING: U.S. job openings fell to 7.08 million in August while consumer confidence dropped to 81.9, well below the 89.0 expected.
