It may be a conspiracy theory but I've had the view for quite some time that there are conflicted linkages between financial news media and financial institutions pushing their own strategies.

As for governments showing some form of control or regulation over the markets you only have to look at the most basic question of who sets interest rates. Most people assume its sthe central banks. A good case in point is the RBA leaving rates on hold again today but short term interest rates are increasing - the RBA will have no choice but to follow if that persists. My coach shared a graphic of the US Fed interest rate chart vs money market rates, over a period of 15 years - and money market rates always lead the Fed:
