Market Bloodbath: What’s Crushing Stocks on November 13, 2025?
Wall Street's November nightmare continues as markets tumble for the third straight session. Here's why your portfolio's bleeding—and what it means for tomorrow's open.
The Triple Threat Hammering Stocks
1. Fed Chair Powell's hawkish surprise: "No pivot until 2026" sends risk assets reeling
2. China's property collapse goes global—Evergrande contagion hits European banks
3. Oil shocks return as OPEC+ announces emergency 3M barrel/day cut
Crypto's Ironic Safe Haven Moment
Bitcoin briefly spikes 8% as traders flee traditional markets—proving once again that in finance, everyone's hypocrite until they need a life raft. Gold? Flat. Bonds? Volatile. Crypto? Suddenly looking like adult money.
Meanwhile, the usual suspects are blaming algorithms, millennials, and—because why not—a viral TikTok trend about abandoning 401(k)s. Because clearly, retail investors moving $20 billion can move $40 trillion markets.
Tomorrow's playbook: Watch the CPI revision like a hawk, ignore CNBC's "BUY THE DIP" chyrons, and remember—the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent. Especially when your financial advisor still thinks blockchain is a bike lock technology.

While the government is back in business, effects from the shutdown continue to linger. One of these is the disruption to federal inflation and labor market data. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) and jobless claims reports were scheduled to be released this morning, although they continue to be held back, clouding the state of the economy.
White House Says Partial October Jobs Data to Be Released
Yesterday, WHITE House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt warned that the Labor Department may never release October’s CPI and jobs reports, leaving economic data “permanently impaired.” However, she said this morning that October’s jobs report will be published excluding the unemployment rate and that September’s jobs report could be released as early as next week.
The data delay comes amid concerning private labor market signals. Last week, outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas reported 153,074 job cuts in October, marking the highest total for the month in 22 years. Additionally, ADP data released Wednesday showed that U.S. private payrolls declined by an average of 11,250 per week over the four weeks ending October 25.
