It appears this is the fourth worst back to back day for the DJIA in American history with a two day combined -8.65% loss, only trailing the 1929 crash, 1987 Black Monday, and the 2008 crisis.

May I also add to the phrase lexicon ‘pulling a Trump’ when referring to a president that doesn’t meet our fallen soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice when they arrive home
And it's just the beginning. I love the fact that all the big tech bros, who stood on the stage, grinning while the 🍊🤡 was inaugurated, lost 1.5 trillion in value literally overnight!
How's THAT working gor ya', ass kissers?
Tariffs are the only thing the mango shitgibbon has heard of when it comes to economics. But he's such an idiot, he has no idea how to use them. All he wanted was the power to say "I can do this!". But the irony is, this will end up dragging the whole 2025 project down too. Through incompetence!
Oh I would nationalize all of his properties through civil asset forfiture as the product of crime I believe it would be very much in keeping with the Trump family legacy if it was converted into a nice low income housing community for low income families and the disabled.
29 - They figured out financial fix 4 years later
87 - Basically a glitch, no big fix necessary
08 - Learned lesson from 29, applied fix rightaway
25 - Fix is to immediately remove Trump and his people from power
Dunno the complaints..
🍊🦧 brought prices down as promised.. ok, Wall Street prices.. not eggs..
Hey, he is still an apprentice in his new president job.. he will certainly improve over time.. at least his handicap..
Oh, the 1929 one was definitely intentional. May not have been the goal, but it was the unambiguous obvious result of Republican legislation passed by Congress and signed by a Republican president.
Trump pulled American health experts out of China before Covid hit. In Jan, 2020, Trump told Bob Woodward that a terrible flu was coming. He knew but did nothing to prepare. Then in March, he said it would be gone by May. I think it’s fair to blame him for being so careless.
The stock market and economic bloodbath will get worse and when it does, I so hope heavy-hitters on Wall Street or Tech Billionaires visiting Trump at Mar-a-Largo or the Oval Office, tell Trump: 'You don't have the cards' forcing him to roll back his crazy tariffs (like how he treated Zelenskyy)
This kind of generality is not helpful. All of my retiree friends voted for democracy and prosperity, not for Trump. Still we suffer. Think before you paint such broad strokes.
I know I barely recovered from 2022 - OTOH - our mix seems to be handling this one better - I guess past me decided to be a little conservative after that... I might be a little reckless if we ever get out of this tailspin.
Well having a 401K isn't exactly magical either - it's a non-trivial chunk of a lot of people over a certain ages income being put aside in a way they can't touch for the best part of a decade when a random number might be available...
PSYCHOPATH Trump (KGB codename since 1987: Krasnov) has been PSYCHOPATH Putin’s bootlicker for decades.
Trapped w/in the behavior patterns of their disorder, WORLD DOMINATION/ENSLAVEMENT is the agenda as *RUSSIA’S Republicans*—also cultivated over decades—destroy America/Americans to pave the way.
But Trump will make the economy better, cry his supporters. It was doing so well when he first took office, surely it will just magically go back to the way it was, and eggs will be cheaper!
Yeh, this is on the people who swallowed Trump's lies.
Trade wars are not modern GOP orthodoxy.
But he is doing one openly and aggressively.
No more lectures about markets being free.
This tariff shit show belongs to the GOP.
Somewhere between 1929 and 2008. 1929 was pretty apocalyptic, and was followed by a President who literally did the same thing Trump is doing with tariffs. 2008 was sheparded by a president with a conscience and a brain hampered by Congressional defiance.
But it was a beautiful crash. No one knows more about crashes than Trump, he's done it to casinos, a global economy is a piece of piss for him to crash. People that know about this have told him he's the best at crashes.
Well, Trump did say you guys would have an economy like you would never seen before. Turns out, You have seen it before, in 1929. Imagine having a robust economy and tanking it in 70 days. It’s like leading by four lengths in the Kentucky Derby and pulling out a gun and shooting your horse.
But many have parents or grandparents who grew up during it. My grandparents weren't wealthy enough to have $ in the market in 1929, but they endured the consequences of the crash, as did my parents & their siblings.
My mother remembered the result. She brought home paper napkins and toilet paper from public facilities her entire life.
We found an entire closet stuffed full of paper napkins when she was moved into care.
She couldn't undo the damage being born after did to her
I don't think so. Quite a chance some 1929 orphans are still alive who saw the endowments setup for them vaporize.
There was a reason social security systems were developed in a lot of western countries in the 1930s - 1950s timeframes which covered widows and orphans, aside of the elderly.
True. Perhaps not personal knowledge of the stock market crash in 29. But certainly it hasn’t been erased from US memory like any other event that doesn’t fit a narrative.
And Vance said, oh I'm surprised it didn't drop lower. WTAF, someone make him set a number for when he thinks it's bad and needs fixing. It really really really is a stupidity marathon.
There’s already nationwide protests happening tomorrow. Democratic politicians need to get out there and join those protests and start making some demands. People are going to be absolutely furious.
I’m getting really scared. Like, a sick feeling, scared. I didn’t do anything with my accounts to prepare, even though I read that people were selling equities, converting to cash etc. now, I’m kicking myself over it. Fork Trump & Trump voters 😡🤬 for destroying the US
Depends on your age and retirement plans. Once Trump dies or MAGA implodes - all loser fascist movements do - the market will resume. Closer to retirement the worse this is.
I’m 4 years from RMD age 😞 and still working but desperately want to retire. I hung around in fear that Trump would win. The Great Recession didn’t worry me that much because I knew I had time to recover. Now, I’m freaking out
In 2022, I tried to identify the best performing stock market in the world. By an incredibly large margin, that market was in Zimbabwe. Turns out, when everything is crashing, people at least see value in real businesses selling real products or services.
In 1929, 2009 or 2020, stock prices of good companies eventually got to a point where savvy investors could not resist buying. Key word: eventually. (But not zero, except for companies that go bankrupt.)
4 economic collapses in 100 years and they still get the benefit of doubt for being better at the economy. The Democratic Party needs to make sure every American understands this.
And the orange Nero is at his private golf course holding a million dollar a plate dinner. He fiddles as the states are drained of jobs and money. Who benefits the most? U.S. adversaries. Gosh I wonder who put this individual into office.
It appears Monday on track for major losses.
Global sellers selling off US shares globally if given opportunity exterior of US.
Sell orders piling in.
Many in market May not be in Market come Monday.
That bad.
A Depression is giving hope.
This crap is a collapse.
Collapsed confidence of US currency.
Top 10 historic drops ever to occur:
What President was president during all 10 events?
President Donald Trump.
Destroying US Market is his job.
Russia orders were clear destroy US Markets.
I have my methods to prevent.
I can prevent for only so long.
Monday everyone wear diapers.
Shit will hit fan.

They’ve sent the United States a metaphorical Fuck you, in that they’re making trade deals with other nations to get around the United States & China will end up being the big winner in all of this.

1929 Herbert Hoover, Republican.
1987 Ronald Reagan, Republican.
2008 George W. Bush, Republican.

Woke-ass Democrats ruining everything?
Who was it again that said something along the lines of "Reality has a liberal bias"?
We will get to number 1.

🤬
It came 7-10 days after that first big drop.
This crash though... 1000% him.
Trump refused to do what should have been done asap.
Responsible for the financial fiasco AND needless suffering & deaths of Americans.
And he has now done it FOUR times.
He has the 8 worst/biggest stock market point drops in US History.
Weird, huh?
Now Congress needs to enforce it!!
#endtheregime
I'm gonna play golf.
Kevin Hassett is yelling,
“36,000, 36,000, 36,000!”
guess it would depend on their investments, fees & inflation.

We've got a long way to go.

Covid and 1987 bounced back relatively quickly.
Dot com was a modest period time to recover while 1929 and 2008 were extended recoveries.
Which scenario will this fit into?
Also, there seems to be a pattern here with which party is in the White House.

Way to fucking go, America. You elected an idiot. Twice
The great depression, Black Monday, the great recession and the covid crash...
Now ? The Great Stupid crash.
3 3/4 years until the Democrats can even begin ANOTHER economic recovery.
😁
