I don't get the stock market meltdown. Yeah, I know the media's milking it for all it's worth.
But from a practical standpoint, most people are in the market for retirement. Long term, this is almost definitely temporary. Short term, you're buying up stocks presumably for cheap so you benefit.
If you're day trading - sorry but that's one of the risks. It's a good time to buy, so there's that.
Maybe if you planned on retiring this year it puts a little damper on your plans, but you weren't going to unload your whole 401k all at once anyway, so is it really all that bad?
I remember early in Trump's first term the market was going down and the commie news agencies were blaming Trump. It seemed engineered then, like it is now. They could not keep it down though. The only way they stopped it was with an engineered fake pandemic. Even real estate prices went down for a minute when people thought they were going to die.
Well, the stocks tanking were a direct result of Trump announcing the new world wide tariffs.
When he announced that he was pausing them for 90 days, the market rebounded.
It's quite obvious what caused the fall and the rise, and it was, indeed, because of the actions of the President.
There's no engineering needed. It doesn't matter who the President is, if they announce new tariffs, the stock market starts to fall. They lift tariffs, the market rises. It's something you can look at throughout the decades with various Presidents.
A lot of the stock market relies on business abroad and that is why it is a shock to the markets. Some businesses will adjust and come back to USA while others grapple how they will absorb tariff costs because passing those cost onto the customer is tough.
Pssst. It's not just liberals and RINOs freaking out.
Plenty of people who are claiming to be really dedicated Trump supporters are all over the place freaking out.
There's a Reddit sub called Leopards Ate My Face, or something similar, that is dedicated to making fun of MAGA for getting upset at something Trump and/or his administration is doing.
That's the key difference between conservatives and leftists. If conservatives show any sign of regret, the left will harass them for life. If leftists show any sign of regret, the conservatives will use it as an opportunity to recruit/sympathize with them.
I have never seen a leftist show regret. They simply find someone else to blame or increase their blame on people they already blame. Their fingers are always pointing at someone else instead of themselves.
Sometimes they even point two fingers at those they blame and shout in a repetitive cadence, "Shame! Shame! Shame! Shame!"
I'm not praising how wonderful Reddit is. I'm not saying people should go sit on it all day.
I'm pointing out that it's not only liberals and RINOs that are panicking over what is going on. It's also Trump supporters, and I know this because of a relatively popular Reddit sub.
Sometimes I wonder if people are purposefully ignoring what my point is when I post. Or if they genuinely don't get the point. I'm not sure which is more concerning.
One doesn't stop being a sheep panicked at every sudden event. But they can be trained to calm down quicker. I have enjoyed watching the training since before the Toilet Paper "Shortage".
Oh, no, not at all. Yours was just the last one I read of several about how much Reddit sucks. Or at least, how much most Reddit subs suck.
You just were the unlucky one that my Roulette Wheel of Snark stopped on.
I maybe have a little trouble reading people's tone online. Just a little. 🤏😁. By which I mean "quite a lot".
So I probably read a bunch of stuff unto your post that was never there.
Just ignore me. Everyone who has had the misfortune of reading my posts over the years have already done so. If they haven't, they're obviously masochists.

Trump knew that the DS would tank the stock market to create a counter narrative. But they played right into Trump’s hands. Money is being driven into to safe treasuries and lowering interest rates so Trump can refinance a chunk of our debt at a lower rate.
I have patiently been waiting for this to happen. I have money in DJT, RUM and GME. Don't care if I lose it all if that is what it takes to right this ship. I 100% trust our POTUS to bring this nation to peace and prosperity. Such a great time to be alive!
The way I see it, the 2008 financial meltdown never ended. It was a deliberate orchestrated upward transfer of wealth away from we the people to the wealthy. I don't think the government bail out program ever really ended did it? I think we just pumped money into the stock market and printed it out to keep these institutions afloat when they should have collapsed under their own weight decades ago.

People will billions (or trillions) of dollars are waging psychological warfare against us.
So nothing has changed.

Day traders are trading short and making a killing if they know what they are doing
Its corrupt and needs replaced. So it can meltdown.

Liberals are such pussies they say someone needs to rock the boat and then when someone does they melt down like cheese on a hot griddle.
And RINO’s are freaking out too. The Mossad agent Ben Shapiro is out in full force.
Pssst. It's not just liberals and RINOs freaking out.

It's a popular sub.
Those people are tards. Seriously did you not know what Trump was gonna do?
They probably got the jab
Yes, lots of tards in the world. I completely agree with that.

narcissists and psychopaths do have traits in common.
A leftist showing regret does not remain a leftist.
Is that right?
Normal everyday Americans have no idea what Reddit is. So much much lost knowing what it is.
Reddit is good for 1 thing.
Support subs for diseases.Everything else pretty garbage

Popcorn ? 🍿
What? No butter? No salt? What kinda trick you running here, fren? 🤨
No I didn't mean it that way. I hope you weren't offended.

Wife and I knew a crash was coming. It was part of the plan. Bring it!!! People are just in panic mode atm and can't seem to think outside the box.
Think ?
Exactly patriot!

Panican: a person who panics easily.
Trump knew that the DS would tank the stock market to create a counter narrative. But they played right into Trump’s hands. Money is being driven into to safe treasuries and lowering interest rates so Trump can refinance a chunk of our debt at a lower rate.
How is he able to do that? From a legal standpoint.
Like, what are the steps involved with doing that?
Money always moves toward safety , so which currency is still the WORLDS reserve currency thus drawing international capital flows ?

Sounds like the boom train is otw
I would have picked "PANICRAT" but just picking nits....

PANICAN! WOW!
