Stock Market DROPPED 473 Points! Guess Who Is the ONLY Buyer?

Comedians gets paid to make people laugh. But in this case, there is no comedian needed. The markets themselves are a laugh. Someone sneezes and it drops 4 or 500 points. It’s truly a joke! The only notable buyer has been of course, stock buybacks. The continued trend has persisted. Now while central banks have also been buyers, apparently buybacks largely persisted throughout the supposed blackout period of April. I hope they have an unlimited checkbook to keep this party going.
