The NYSE TICK index has experienced unprecedented lows, reaching a record intraday print of -2,170, indicating aggressive selling across the market. This decline is attributed to a selloff triggered by the Federal Reserve's policies, with reports suggesting that the TICK index has remained at -1,500 since the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting. The extreme reading of -2,143 is noted as one of the lowest in recorded history, surpassing even levels seen during the COVID-19 market disruptions. Analysts are interpreting these figures as a sign of panic selling among traders, highlighting the severity of the current market conditions.
