The markets probably do make sense, there are just so many constantly changing input variables that we just don’t possess the capacity to actually make sense of it.

That's just something people like Jim Cramer say: "The market is fOrWarD lOOkInG" oOOOoH. They aren't, plain and simple. 2 banks crash and the market goes into a frenzy, one week later it's booming and doesn't care whatsoever about what just happened. Just look a chart of spy before and during 2008, the market didn't start falling until the grim reaper was staring them in the face and no one could deny crisis was upon us.

You obviously just consume news headlines and have no idea what you are talking about.

All banks and the Fed have entire divisions devoted to stress testing and risk management built after the financial crisis that was supposed to stop exactly what happened from happening.

This is all political theater. The reality is that the banking system is ultimately too complicated and a complex system of this size is going to have parts that are brittle. We will always be fixing things in the rear view mirror while journalist write BS for people like you to consume.
