Wall Street started selling before you even saw the headline.
According to Goldman Sachs data, hedge funds slashed exposure to equities at 1.4 standard deviations below normal, aggressively shorting North America and cutting longs in Europe while dumping financials and rotating into energy, healthcare, and staples. Then Donald Trump proposed a 15% global tariff plan and markets reacted instantly. Bitcoin fell from 67.7K to 64.2K, alts dropped 3–5%, and the S&P 500 and Dow slid in sync. This was the positioning. When smart money moves before the narrative forms, you either complain about volatility or you learn to anticipate it.
