Market panicI quickly checked the share volume of Arc, Su and Tou. The trading volumes are pretty low considering the huge market drops. I bought some more shares as well as some options to ride any bounce in the next few days. Interest rates are still fairly low, in historical terms, and this is an election year in the U.S. Are fears of a recession well founded or exaggerated? Q2 for Arc should be very positive and countries around the world, at least those in a position to do so, will want to top up their reserves. A big question is whether Arc was clever enough to lock in some of the higher prices earlier in Q2 or if they were gun shy because of earlier and current hedging losses. There is some blood in the streets, especially from those who, unfortunately, are margined up the wazoo.
