Market Pullback: markets are limping — and it's not just about Netflix
Markets are again in the red zone. Dow -200 points, S&P 500 almost -1%, Nasdaq — likewise. All this against the backdrop of new statements from Trump and a fresh batch of tariffs, including absolutely wild 100% duties on foreign films. Netflix and Disney are down, as if the premiere has failed.
But this is not just a separate news reason — investors are starting to speak louder about systemic risks. Decreased consumption, strangling of company profits, economic slowdown. And all this without a recession on the horizon, according to analysts. Although a potential drop of 15–20% in the S&P 500 is already not a theory.
Against this backdrop, gold feels like crypto in 2021 — +27% since the beginning of the year. People are looking for a place to hide. And while some are eyeing bonds, others are once again glancing at BTC.
In short, the pullback is not random. This is already the tone of the market. And what’s next? We will observe.
