1/7 some thoughts on margin debt

margin debt stats are typically used in clickbait headlines

like so: 2/7 narrative: big numbers are scary and there's ~$600 billion in margin debt, so there's ton of leverage just waiting to be unwound

as with most big number stats - the data needs to be scaled. margin debt relative to the overall market is a boring chart (h/t @EconomPic)
