Thanks much for the summary.

Am looking for bounce-rallies that feel like the return of the bull.

Net direction is to continue net short general market, particularly Tesla due to its too-high implied volatility (and only via naked short calls / not by shorting the equity itself), and

Intend to successively go long and longer gold, silver, Pd, and maybe even Pt.

History of 20%+ drops in the S&P500 since 1929 and how long they lasted before their was a significant relief rally:

Summary:
Shortest Uninterrupted Drop >20%: 2 months (1929)
Longest Uninterrupted Drop >20%: 21 months (1973-74)
Average Uninterrupted Drop >20% Duration: 10 months
Largest Uninterrupted Drop: 54.7% (1937-38)

Note: 1929 drop in total was largest in total but was interrupted with rallies

Currently:
7 days and 28.5% and counting (by my calculation)
