Another Late Day Dumpfest Ends Worst Thanksgiving Week Ever For Stocks


Another Late Day Dumpfest Ends Worst Thanksgiving Week Ever For Stocks

 
 Stocks plunged at the close for the third day in a row to cap the worst Thanksgiving week ever. US equities seemed in a world of their own for much of the day - especially financials - as all the hope and rumors faded and clearly a large number wanted to be flat or short into the weekend. Across a broad basket of risk assets (CONTEXT), today's equity rally and selloff was pure emotional overshoot and correction as we closed back at reality. HYG once again led the derisking way and credit underperformed equity until the late-day equity sell-off converged them once again. What has been most notable this week - particularly the last day or so, has been the sell-off in Treasuries. The concerns that European entities are repatriating anything and everything should be very worrisome and the volume into the ES close suggests that fear is growing.
