Quite a night, eh, folks? I honestly can’t remember anything like this since the financial crisis, and even then, I think last night was wilder. I actually kept semi-dreaming that the ES had turned green. It, umm, hasn’t.

It’s astonishing to me that just after the close yesterday, it was at the highest levels in human history.
