Misinformation and absurd policy fever dreams might get you elected, but as a basis of governance in the real world, they lead to incompetence, negative outcomes, and failure.
I’m just surprised it happened so quickly.
There’s ZERO chance that this plummet isn’t being accompanied by insider trading. Elon has a long history of market manipulation and I’m sure he and Trump are like-minded where this is concerned
There aren't any adults in the cabinet... this trade war is manufacturing a recession. The feds hands are tied, they can aggressively lower interest rates with tariff spiking inflation
The fact that Trump has Elonia Musk looking under the hood of the US government tells you everything you need to know about the effectiveness of Congress.
Let’s just say these tariffs do what they are intended for and manufacturers come back here to make their products, this will take a few years to bear fruit and if a Democrat gets elected in 2028 won’t they undo all of Trump’s policies anyway?
No, but maybe not devote everything to worshipping it increasing year on year on year. There comes a point where we can't sustain increase all the time
That era did not have 401k money flooding in for these yahoos to play with. Look at the chart. The stock market then did nothing until around 1983 when the 401k began.
Everyone needs to ask these Republicans daily. I mean flood them with questions about what they are hiding in their past? What would make them destroy themselves and their constituents. What blackmail is so bad they would abdicate their power and ruin America. Or, or they are really just asshats?
The billionaires were ok with the racism and Jan 6 and the pardons of people who beat cops but oh no now you are hitting my wallet and that cannot stand
$SPY $VOO $DIA I'd say we're almost there? Perhaps another 10% to go. If we drop much below we're all truly fucked! One man single-handedly creates a market crash. 2000 dotcom bubble. 2008 housing crisis. 2025 @realDonaldTrump #2025MarketCrash
35K is coming! Another howler, my company is beta testing the Cosmic Brain with Billy! If our advanced NASA alien software passes proof of concept and “Thinks,” he takes over Big Tech, LLMs crash and 25k in sight! Then cash is king 3,000 billionaires go crazy!Lemmings point fingers until they starve
Scott, have you ever thought about your framing of masculinity through the lens of provider and protector is the same ideology that motivates some to seek to "bring back manufacturing" at the expense of a more advanced economy in order to try to return to the post ww2 social order?
The U.S. stock market has erased $9.6 trillion since Inauguration Day, with $5 trillion lost in just the last two days—setting a new record for the largest two-day loss. Major indexes are deep in the red, and the Nasdaq is nearing bear-market territory. #StockMarket #EconomicVolatility
When a public of free will, voted for an orange man who gleefully spoke of grabbing women by their pussies, and disparaged John McCain's heroism..something has really gone wrong. They voted for him again after being convicted of 34 felonies by his peers, convicted of sexual assault. It's disturbing.
honestly, given the scope of the tariffs and the expected counters, the market is kind of under-reacting. I suspect most still believe Trump will back off before the worst of it.
Yep. That shows that the market got back on track with Biden after Trump crashed it and before Trump crashed it again… Trump definitely sucks! You’re right!
trump knows EXACTLY what he is doing-
It is what he did with crypto-
