What just happened?
After rising +2,400 points since its April 7th low, the Nasdaq is now down nearly -900 points since Monday's high.
Today, Fed Chair Powell made it clear that the "Fed put" is NOT saving the market any time soon.
Here's what happened.

This is interesting:
At 2:45 PM ET, the White House announced a Press Briefing at 4:30 PM ET with a "Special Guest."
21 minutes later, at 3:06 PM ET, there was a $10 million spike in puts on the S&P 500 ETF, $SPY.
A similar trend was seen in $QQQ options prior to Nvidia's announcement of H20 chip restrictions yesterday.
A trend worth watching.
