According to The Kobeissi Letter, the 5-day moving average of the US economic uncertainty index reached approximately 634 in March, surpassing both the 2008 financial crisis high and the April 2020 pandemic peak by 270 points. This heightened uncertainty is contributing to today's market declines.

According to The Kobeissi Letter, investor and consumer sentiment has significantly decreased due to persistent negative headlines. This emotional market environment contributes to frequent and sudden market swings. Currently, 44% of Americans anticipate lower stock prices, a sentiment closely approaching the 2008 financial crisis peak levels.

According to The Kobeissi Letter, the US Government's debt-to-asset ratio has reached 6.4 times, which is over 10 times higher than what is considered acceptable for a public company. This indicates a severe financial imbalance that could impact market stability.
