Time in the market always beats timing the market. Stop with this daily "Dow is crashing" nonsense. The market needs correcting, and will stabilize in plenty of time.

Relax. Have a drink. Touch grass. It'll be ok.
Yep, don't look at your 401K. Just have some patience and faith. I do hope it starts turning soon. He's losing support from the moderates who wanted change from poopy pants.

Right. "America first" even if it costs tens of thousands of Americans their jobs, throws gasoline on Biden's inflation


And what would cutting 2.5 Trillion from government to balance our budget do?


We aren't balancing the budget anytime soon. Just making as much progress as possible while you have all three branches and continuing to grow the economy leading into the midterms should be considered a win at this point. Again, it's a titanic that won't be turned around overnight but that takes an organized and deliberate strategy. Not to mention the $2.5 Trillion number he's been touting is a questionable estimate at best.

They? You just exposed yourself after touting DeSantis for over a year. You're a lib just as we suspected.


Lol yes. You caught me. Spent a year+ touting the most conservative candidate the primary and someone who single-handedly destroyed the left in Florida because I'm a closet liberal. Guess I should have said "Republican" instead of "conservative" because it seems like Republican just means "whatever Trump says is good" now.

You should have been around black Monday October 1983. Dropped 23 percent in one day. Hey why weren't people acting like this under Biden when the market was doing this, Media hysteria

We had a very healthy correct in 4th Q 2018. Bear markets in 20 and 22. Now another correction. These are simply part of the markets.
Interesting.

So you're telling me the yellow arrows are normal, but see no issue with anything else on this chart?




Yes, that's normal exponential growth that companies experience when they retain earnings.


Am I living in the twilight zone or was I explaining that very thing to you a week ago?

No, my comment was tongue in cheek. I was making fun of your explanation because it is utter nonsense!

Don't care

Burn it all down and start over


Now try being 58 and say that.
Somebody is always going to be 58. The solution can't be to never fix it.


I am for we all have to sacrifice as Trump does the hard work to make it a more even playing field so that this country gets strong. "Burning it to the ground" is simply a childish reaction to this market.

meaningless. How many times has the Dow dropped 2% or 3% in one day? The reason 1,000 seems like a big deal to you is because it's been at or near record levels.

20+ times it has dropped by more than 7%....nearly 3x what you are talking about.
Please tell me there's a special place in Heaven for Aggie fans! It's like we are living some sort of penance on Earth.

If you're not careful you'll end up with a president Occasio Cortez in '28 if you screw up the cost of living and projected retirement age for too many voters.
At age 62 and looking at retiring in 2-3 years, I'm not liking it very much.

I really cannot understand this mindset at all.

if you have been properly planning for retirement for the last 30 years, and are approaching retirement in 2 years:

you should NOT BE INVESTING IN RISKY EQUITIES.

or at least have enough cash and CDs on hand to cover you for 3 years until the market bounces back.

this is BASIC planning!

Imagine if he realized that shadow banks account for nearly 50% of all leverage in the global system, and that unwinding that has nothing to do with Trump.

Incredible gymnastics to make sure we all know a crashing market, forced recession, and collapse of millions of small businesses, caused explicitly by the actions of a single man, the maga president, are great and wonderful and we should all say thank you.


Officially a cult.

This is the more meaningful way to look at it. A 1,000 point drop when the market is at 5,000 is MASSIVE, and would be concerning. A 1,000 point drop when the market is at 40,000 isn't even a correction. 4 1,000 point declines would represent a 10% pull back, in a market that was inflated by massive money-printing. Again, not overly concerning when markets are known to move up and down. Its all Fear Porn by the MSM, and some on here buy into it hook, line and sinker.

Yes, definitely not caused by massively leveraged foreign currency short positions where the proceeds were continually invest in American treasuries and risk assets, and said currency moving strongly higher forcing shorts to close at a huge loss (wiping large amounts of leverage out), or to sell US treasuries and risk assets to add significant collateral that is being demanded of them by their counterparty (liquidity that usually buys dips now not available).

Yes, it was all Trump. Not the historically overleveraged and overbought bull market nor the economy completely propped up by government spending.

Millions of small businesses have collapsed? Can you provide a citation for that?

According to Wikipedia it has dropped 1,000+ points 19 times and two of those took place this year. So you missed on both points by almost double.

Facts and democrats are like water and oil.

this is weapons grade copium. the current market pullback, whose magnitude and velocity rivals that of some of the worst financial disasters in our history, is entirely self-inflicted by trump's ******ed tariff policy and subsequent flip flopping. it is not a natural correction or a deleveraging of inflated equities.

gotta give trump props, he might be the first person to ever achieve a market correction, increase in bond yields, and devaluation of the USD against other currencies alll at the same time.

we can spend the rest of our lives pulling up posts from 2016-2025 showing leftists railing about one issue or another

only to be proven 100% wrong a year or two later.
