There is something odd about this crash and usual round of calls for belt-tighening and cost control at companies. Unlike previous crashes, there's still a ton of eager money sitting on the sidelines. It's just gotten seriously skittish now. But it still has to go somewhere

Well, real or not, it's real enough at my position in the circus :D
Gotta tighten belt in anticipation of gigs mysteriously evaporating from the pipeline

I haven’t been alive long enough to opine, but it feels like way too many folks are expecting a severe capitulation event and I’m just not seeing it.
~3M folks still not participating in the workforce compared to ‘19, I think jobs are relatively safe

Like Waldo everyone is still looking for the elusive Capitulation.
I can never recall so many being so well-versed in what Capitulation looks like/is.

Broadly agree though at least some of the money on the sidelines is not really there. The LP's are over exposed and being v slow to both say yes to capital calls and sometimes reneging. Plus hedges are getting margin called pretty vigorously
