The post-election euphoria that drove markets to record highs is facing its first serious test as multiple warning signals flash red across global markets. Today's sharp market decline, with the Dow dropping nearly 350 points, may be just the beginning according to our analysis of emerging economic data and expert warnings.
You may have heard about Boeing planes falling apart midflight and catching fire.
But, according to analyst Dan Ferris, there's something much darker going on here
that could threaten Nvidia, the Magnificent 7, and the entire U.S. stock market.
MARKET SNAPSHOT:
The Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 0.8% today, marking its worst performance since October 31, while Treasury yields surged to 4.43%. This comes as Bank of America reports investor exposure to U.S. stocks has reached an 11-year high – a contrarian indicator that often precedes significant market corrections.
INFLATION CONCERNS INTENSIFY:
Tomorrow's critical CPI report is expected to show headline inflation jumping to 2.6%, up from September's 2.4%. More worrying is core inflation's stubborn persistence at 3.3%, significantly above the Fed's 2% target. "The October CPI report will likely support the notion that the last mile of inflation's journey back to target will be the hardest," warns Wells Fargo's lead economist Jay Bryson.
THE TRUMP EFFECT:
President-elect Trump's proposed policies are already reshaping market expectations:
Global tariffs of 10-20% on all imports
Punitive tariffs of 60-100% on Chinese goods
Immigration restrictions that could affect labor markets
Corporate tax policy changes
FEDERAL RESERVE PIVOT:
Former Fed policymaker Loretta Mester delivered a stark warning today: "The market is right, they're probably not going to have as many cuts next year as was assumed." Markets have already begun pricing in this new reality, with December rate cut probability dropping to 65% from 78% last week.
GLOBAL IMPLICATIONS:
European Central Bank policymaker Olli Rehn warned that Trump's proposed tariffs would be "detrimental" to the global economy, even if they prove to be an initial negotiating tactic. "A trade war is the last thing we need," he stated, adding that the European Union must prepare better than it did in 2018. While some analysts suggest these aggressive tariff proposals could be Trump's opening position for future trade negotiations, markets appear to be pricing in the risk of full implementation.
Inflation Trajectory
• Tomorrow's CPI report could accelerate market moves
• Service sector inflation remains sticky
• Housing costs continue to pressure core numbers
Policy Implementation
• Speed and scope of tariff implementation
• Immigration policy changes
• Tax reform timeline
Federal Reserve Response
• Reduced rate cut expectations
• Balance between inflation and growth
• Political independence challenges
INVESTMENT IMPLICATIONS:
Current market conditions suggest investors should consider:
• Reducing exposure to highly valued growth stocks
• Increasing allocation to inflation-protected securities
• Reviewing international exposure, particularly in China-dependent sectors
• Building cash reserves for potential opportunities
$2 trillion has disappeared from the US government's books.
The reason why is a new, secretive move being carried out by the Fed that has nothing to do with lowering or raising interest rates... but could soon have an enormous impact on your wealth.
According to Dan Ferris, the banking expert who once predicted the collapse of Lehman Brothers, what the Federal Reserve is doing today will soon ignite a major market event that will catch millions of Americans off guard.
"Millions are about to be blindsided," says Ferris, "unless they take the time now to prepare."
URGENT CONSIDERATIONS:
The combination of elevated valuations, policy uncertainty, and inflation risks creates what our analysts call a "perfect storm" scenario. Bank of America economists Stephen Juneau and Park warn that "inflation [is] unlikely to show much progress" and will likely move "sideways after a period of substantial disinflation."
ACTION STEPS:
Review portfolio allocation immediately
Consider hedging strategies against inflation
Prepare for increased market volatility
Monitor tomorrow's CPI report closely
Watch for specific policy announcements from the transition team
CONCLUSION:
While markets have shown remarkable resilience, the convergence of these factors suggests increased caution is warranted. Tomorrow's CPI report could be the catalyst that forces markets to fully price in these new realities.
We will continue to monitor these developments and provide updates as the situation evolves.
Editor's Note: After reading our urgent market warning, we strongly recommend viewing the special presentation below. It reveals a critical market pattern that could affect your portfolio in the coming weeks.
The last time the U.S. economy looked like this, stocks didn't move for 16 years...
And many investors lost 80% of their wealth in real terms.
But before you touch any of your holdings – or buy anything – please review my latest warning about the U.S. stock market. It's free to watch.
Because history shows what's coming next could be catastrophic...
Especially after all the recent selloffs.
For many, the damage could be permanent. It's worth noting:
I predicted the Lehman Brothers collapse in 2008...
I called the top of the Nasdaq to the exact day in 2021, before the tech crash...
And I called the top of bitcoin in 2017. (Then in 2020, I called the bottom, too, advising my readers to buy in when most people didn't want to touch the cryptocurrency.)
I'm not trying to scare you today...
But right now, my research shows it's time to take steps once again to defend yourself and hedge against further market pain.
I explain everything in my new video report titled, Wheels Off.

While regular investors watch the public markets, something alarming is happening behind the scenes. Wall Street's biggest players are using private trading venues - called dark pools - to move money at record levels.
