Market Philosophy

Weekend at Bernies was a better choice
It takes a special kind of stupid to spend most of your term on vacation, having an aid (or whoever) use the autopen and have a teleprompter for all events.....and literally do nothing for the common people - NOTHING ! .....and now the thread will get closed because I am on the "wrong" side.

Wall Street - - - the market is a forward looking indicator. They clearly don't see what's being done as good. So tell us how the market is wrong?

Funny the same people ranting in this post were the same people pushing the jab.
I consider the their ignorance as I read and laugh. Keep in mind they will never take responsibility for the comments when thing's turn around. TDS is a real thing.

I really hope things turn around. And we all prosper
But history doesn’t point in that direction.

This thread is not locked because of you. I don't even know what "side" you are on.

I realize that right now it's not easy to talk about the markets without mentioning the president.

Choices:

I could watch everything very closely and "moderate"
You guys could avoid mentioning or cleverly alluding to any presidents
Lock the thread

TDS definition : Trump Deification Syndrome : a deep seated oft self defeating psychosis that blindly follows evil false prophets or mentally unbalanced sociopaths .

Usually found in Cult behavior e.g. Jim Jones , Charles Manson, David Koresh, Keith Raniere, Mussolini, Hitler , Pol Pott, Idi Amin, Gaddaffi, Kim Jung Un, Noriega , Sadam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden and Putin.

This syndrome usually ends Badly for its leaders and blind followers

I’m a pretty liberal guy, but I’m also fiscally conservative nothing wrong with the government trying to control costs and run more efficient. If you had a tree that needed to be pruned, you wouldn’t go at it first with a chainsaw you would cut a little bit back with the proper tools and reassess if you need to take more off/slash and burn never works. I’ve also heard a lot of people saying that the falling stock market doesn’t affect me. I’m not invested in it but if you receive a pension or might be receiving a pension in the future, keep in mind that a ton of pension funds state ones government ones, etc. are heavily invested in the stock market. The value of those funds could collapse.
There are far reaching ramifications with extreme policies

It's not just the stock market. Arbitrary and chaotic policies create uncertainty, and investors hate uncertainty. Everyone will suffer from this, regardless of their portfolio, unless you had the foresight to short the entire economy. The first question is who did that? and the only other question is how long will the chaos last?
