[0:01] I suspect that we'll probably fall a little bit more, test that old resistance line, then we'll see whether we were back off to the races or if this we're just going back into the consolidation. This was a false breakout. Similar to the false breakout on the downside we had in mid late June.

[9:54] I think the way investors look at it is SpaceX is kind of a mag seven. And what they're saying is, okay, I'm going to be buying SpaceX, whether it's today or whether it's a week from now. Let me start by making room. I'll sell Nvidia. I'll sell Apple. I'll sell Microsoft. whatever it is. So, I think those stocks got a little disproportionately hit

The prediction claims Magnificent Seven stocks faced 'disproportionate' selling pressure due to SpaceX IPO portfolio rebalancing, which is a qualitative/relative claim about cause and magnitude that's difficult to verify purely from NDX price data; while NDX did decline ~4.2% to target date and ~5.7% at period low, whether this was 'disproportionate' relative to broader market or specifically caused by SpaceX IPO room-making cannot be determined from the price data alone.

And we've seen them all do big fixed bond deals now, they're all coming to the equity market.
