   Morgan Stanley expects sharp drop in stock prices, followed by a climb back to present range. Since MS is one of the chief manipulators, this could happen. It's just one more sign that !econusa is slowing dramatically.

     #Kraken, the 3rd-largest #cryptocurrency exchange, lays off 30% of its workforce, returning to the size it was late last year. Employees will receive 16 weeks of severance pay and benefits vesting will be extended. (Much better than what the Lane furniture company did.)
     
     This could be more fallout from the failure of SBF's #FTX and associated companies, or it could be cyclical economic factors ... as cryptocurrency prices seem to rise and fall with the general economy.

     #Fed Chair Jerome Powell says smaller rate hikes could start next month, but hikes will continue until #inflation is dead.
