I could see a few more down days but all the FED did is threaten and that will wear off when earning come in hot which is highly likely.
Averaging out to 2x now sounds about right, though I had no shortage of regular stocks down 2%+ on Friday.
But yeah, all they did was mention things might change and the market went into a tizzy. Has to be ephemeral. But the inflation concern seems well-founded.
