Stocks are at the end of the runway with dividend cuts incoming, and continually rising interest rates. Next is mass layoffs...

Large corporations cutting dividends is a very bad sign of what's in store.
Dividends have a multiplier effect, with cash dividends typically getting reinvested through share repurchases, and then for many retirees, living on that dividend, is what in many cases makes stocks have any value whatsoever (at least the old school thinking). Today it's all about MMT (Modern Monetary Theory) garbage and financial engineering post Patriot Act & Sarbanes-Oxley, which has decimated any entrepreneurial spirits remaining in the corporate world.
No reason to own stocks if dividends are going to be cut! And no reason to own growth stocks or long dated bonds if interest rates continue climbing! The only place to truly hide from inflation/hyperinflation is in physical precious metals, food, guns, ammo, and anything else that might be needed in a future black market economy when global governments really go tyrannical as the people refuse to "obey" orders!
History tells us that stocks generally stabilize only when a company lays off the weakest part of its workforce! Sometimes that can be 10%, 25%, maybe even 50% or more! And companies need to be allowed to go bankrupt this time around!
