It was easy to look good when the money printer was churning out negative rates and you could rely on investors to pump money in you instead of actually turning a profit. A couple of years ago you could literary close your eyes, put your finger randomly on some no-name company and if you invested in that company you'd get great returns because everything was going to the moon.

Now we're gonna see which companies are actually sustainable and which were coasting on dreams and cheap money.

IMHO such a correction was long overdue, but the central banks kept negative rates for far too long while everyone cheered them one because they saw their crypto, stonks and housing portfolios go to the moon and though this was great and nothing bad could happen because "line always goes up".
