News Dow bouncing around -1000

[Vic]

To be fair, this is his second. His first was Puerto Rico and he totally failed at that one. The difference here is that nobody cares about Puerto Rico.

And neither did he. If Trump has done anything during his Presidency, it's that he has made it abundantly clear that he does not care about the interests and well-being of Americans who don't vote for him (or who live in areas that don't vote for him). And since Puerto Ricans can't vote in Presidential elections, they were fucked from the start there.

But now we have a crisis that directly affects his voters, and he still can't handle it except the only way he knows how, by blaming everyone else.

my approach as well (except ~40 years), being only 33

Oh I'm only 39 so I'm not too terribly old, I just dislike working.

A bit older for me, but I'm not retiring in the next 5 years, so presumably that'll outlast this downturn.

 

[JSt0rm]

I just dislike working.

looks at 66k posts.


Oh we know. We know

It's established that the Trump administration is filled with incompetent douchenozzles, who are are not concerned with upholding their duties.
so I'll just hop in and remind everyone it's a good time to nab some stocks on the cheap.

Well, the fall is slowing.

Well, the fall is slowing.

It looks like it’s doing what it did yesterday. Drop a lot shortly after open, then swings each way all day before dropping the last hour before close.


Not sure if there will be that steep of decline at the end of the day. Depends if more bad news is released.

People are going to be scared to carry and hold positions over the weekend so we're probably going to get some selling towards the close. But today's also options expiration so MM are going to try pin stocks towards certain price if given the chance.

The other thing I may do is sell some index funds to move into something more aggressive, but reliable

Yup said this morning before open that biotechs would absolutely explode which they have been.

I wasn't really watching it, it hasn't done much in forever, then showed up on an active trading alert list. At first I thought it was something else, nothing I owned, then checked into it and woohoo

Ah, stupid to make any comments. Major swings.
Apparently, Fed making noises about lower rates early. Really, don't understand how this would really help.

"We'll be using all available tools to prop up the market to help Trump get reelected"

 

[feralkid]

I'm quite calm market wise. It's dealing with jumpy clients in panic mode that is the challenge. Walking people off the cliff all day.

Isn't it "back from the cliff" ?

Freudian slip?

Meant off as in off the ledge..... I could have chosen my words better!

Oh, I just assumed you knew what you were saying all along.

He's more of a chaotic neutral type. If he convinces half his investors to off themselves, he can make the other half more money.

The thing is, Trump invests in schemey real estate deals. I bet I've owned more stock in my life time than he has. I think he is literally clueless about the stock market, and just relies on his other friends with real wealth for advice about the market.

I didn't realize you were still just a kid. I think I'll call you Junior from now on.

No plans to retire until 73? Sheesh, you must love your work more than I do.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

Really thought we were going to hit the 1000 down again at the end here. Watched it hit 999, then pull back to 720 down.

On a related note, I'm now an alcoholic.
