In this week's episode, sprocket888 and viperxl007 look at the recent FOMC meeting and the corresponding 0.75% rate hike. They also dive in and look back at the 20yr and 100yr history of the S&P to see how the current market tracks with some significant historical events. Finally, they glance into the world of crypto to check on how that has been holding up in light of all the market volatility. There are some interesting trends in that market that we take a look at.
