Prediction:
1) The mkt has been due for a 10%+ correction for awhile
2) I thought it would start in Jan. I now believe it starts late Feb.
3) The newly minted tariff experts on X will blame the correction on tariffs
4) Real truth: After two 20%+ years, it's overdue— Signal Trader (@datruthbomb) February 2, 2025
