Liberty and Finance, Released on 5/12/25

Institutional investors appear to be quietly selling into recent market strength, a classic sign of distribution that often precedes a broader market selloff. Despite a short-term rally driven by positive sentiment around tariff news, heavy overnight futures selling and high-volume unloading during regular trading hours suggest big money is exiting. Technical indicators and behavioral metrics reveal that smart money is taking advantage of this bullish euphoria to offload risk. Meanwhile, analysts like Chris Vermeulen warn that this rally may be a setup for a larger correction, especially as macroeconomic conditions and cycle stages point toward a financial reset. This stealthy institutional behavior is a red flag that the market may be approaching a major downturn.
