Volatility is good for traders - they’re happy. It’s investors getting hosed.

It’s unclear to whom you are referring by use of the term “stock trader.”

In any event, according to Open Secrets Securities and Investment Banking PACs gave about 55% to Republicans and 45% to Democrats.

Most (many?) traders make more money with greater volatility, as opposed to long-horizon holds. I'm sure they're getting what they wanted.

Exactly. Curious to see how many were holding Puts since the election.

Just like how many Crypto Chuds that were pumping his Strategic Reserve BS just to dump all their losing shit coins on the very first pump. They want the volatility…

or maybe it’s insider trading. trump and his billionaire buddies short the markets. trump implements tariffs for a day. the markets crash. traders cover their shorts. trump lifts tariffs.

You have to remember that Stock Traders love when stocks move sharply in any direction. They are making money on the shorts and longs. They love to see us all suffer because it makes them money.

Exactly wrong. Contributions from the financial industry went overwhelmingly to Democrats. You don't understand anything about American politics if you don't know the Dems are the party of the rich.

They are probably getting rich on shorts.

fusiona.bsky.social•71 days ago

yes, but not me! Also, I've bought plenty of #insurance to hedge against the absolutely certain Trump stupidity and chaos, which is still cold comfort, but it's something

Schadenfreude level right now:

Maybe they thought the short market would be very profitable under Trump. They just want chaos to move the market, they make money either way.
