I think anything that the hedge funds are holding that has a negative EPS should be a target. TWLO, CVNA, MDB.

Watch out for high vol and big bid/ask spreads. Heres a link to the most recent quarters hedge fund heat map:

"I’m continuing to work my way out of any of my holdings" except commodities? I've liquidated most of my general stock market positions months ago but still hold WMT from my employee stock purchase and the 401k. Should have already sold but now not sure, these numbers sure don't look good.

That's correct, I'm still holding SOG positions. SOG may have a mild correction but it won't be the same experience that the broader market is going to go through. I think SOG could be bid once investors realize that inflation is still running hot and stock, bonds, real estate are all dragging lower.

Any thoughts as to why the yield curve is holding somewhat steady? Is the Fed doing something special to counterbalance it?

I don't think there is anything new or special going on. I think what we are witnessing is a battle of bond investors trying to decide whether it will invert again. like 06-07, or if it will start to climb.
