It's a bit early to be calling it, I think.

A sell-off is required to start a panic-sell and bubble-pop, but not all sell-offs start a panic-sell and bubble-pop.

It's hard to tell in advance what this is.

I guess we'll see if it's really a sell-off, or if it was normal market volatility around an election.

There's not much normal about the market last 5 years...

I wonder how much of that volatility is directly attributable to SPX 0DTE being a daily thing since circa 2022.

It doesn't fit any normal distribution actually.

Normal as in "typical", not as in "Central Limit Theorem".

Wiener processes aren't a completely terrible model for markets though.

The crashes seem be getting smaller and more frequent

Which would be progress.

A small sell-off is just business as usual.

Who called this small? Datacenter stocks are largely down 50% this month.

Isn't it overly bullish plus quite early to refer to this as "The AI sell-off"?
