I suspect the seemingly coordinated action last week was the result of options set up since November by all who acted. Normally I assume businesses are pretty knee-jerk, but in this case risk managers would have started thinking exposure insurance in November at least.

I’d like to have been a fly in the wall at those meetings. What prompted them? The election itself? What led to saying, “hey the election result challenges could end badly, let’s start keeping an eye on Parler” I’d like to know how those dots were connected.
