As someone who still has time with the markets and their investments, I’m glad I’m not looking to pull from my investments as of yet.
That being said, I feel sorry for anyone that’s invested in the US market heavily right now and needs that cash.
Maybe instead of Trump mocking “Sleepy Joe Biden”, he should stop raping the markets and resign.
But this is just Trump doing Trump things. Absolute moron of a human being and unfortunately there were more than 77 million bigger morons that followed a rapist blindly into leadership.
Anyways enjoy your Idaho grown bananas, mangos, and coffee when the tariffs hit next week.
Now's the time to buy. The wealthy know this, that's why HitlerPig is doing it. He's done the same thing each month since his inauguration. It's deliberate market manipulation.
I dunno if right this second is the time to buy. The market has some settling to do over the coming months.
Wealthy investors know to buy on the dip.
Of course that's assumming that there will be a quick recovery. If this bullshit sends us into a depression, they may have outsmarted themselves.
Buying the dip does not mean to purchase stock anytime number goes down. It means buy when you think something other than market forces are affecting a stock that you believe will make a quick recovery.
We are not in dip territory, we are in recession territory. An old saying is don't try and catch a falling knife. It's better to let it hit the floor before picking it back up, and we're still a ways from hitting the floor.
Valid.
The S&P 500 is still up year-over-year. There's a lot of pain on the way as responses and consequences roll out; this isn't bottoming out in a week.
This is the part of the rollercoaster where the ascent finishes and gravity takes over. Of course the long term metrics don’t reflect what’s happening yet.
