I thought it was Kamala that was supposed to cause a huge drop in the markets?? LOL - CLOWNS! I'm just glad I sold all equities when Trump was elected. Went all in on private credit facilities - paying 11% and extremely safe.
Sunday night Futures down 1500 (again)... so much winning I can't stand myself

1) did someone say that Kamala would crash the market? She had a lot of negatives, most legit, but that’s not one I recall.
2) what is a private credit facility that pays 11% and is relatively safe?
Looks like tomorrow will make it -16% in three days, the biggest three day drop in history. And yet tonight Trump still continues to call his tariffs “the most beautiful thing”.
Sell now and lock in those losses!
That is part I do not understand with people. It isn’t a gain or loss until you are forced to sell. Does it suck? Yes but damn if you invest it comes with the territory. Just look at history.
I’m in no way all in on Trump like most. I did vote for him but give the guy credit…..wrong or right at least he’s trying something instead of sticking his head in the sand like most.
Trump may not be intentionally trying to harm the country, but I’m not sure what he would be doing differently if he were.
You really don’t know anything about the stock market.
in his professional life, Lutnick is long bonds.
This is what happens when you put billionaires with massive conflicts of interest in charge of the country.
Dr Doom is back!
Can you even imagine being only half as miserable as he and others like him are?!!
His predictions are generally in line with his posts. I do get a kick out of them. He is so angry.
Yeah, that's a bullshit chart that ends several weeks before the tariffs were announced. Sharing something as dumb as this tells you the degree to which the GOP is attempting to distract from the issue.
The problem is not just the drop, but the extent of the drop over just three days. There are very few other examples in our market history.
Look, it’s bad. But there was a similar sized drop in late 2022 (apparently). I don’t remember, frankly, anything about that.
Do you know what caused that drop? I’m pretty in tune with the news of the day, I don’t even remember that.
Todays Wall Street news is why I dont make comments about the market being up or down over a short period of time. Guess I just know better.
Things are moving fast but try and keep up.
There was a rumor that Trump was going to institute a 90 day tariff pause. This unsubstantiated rumor resulted in a massive market swing upward. The WH then released a statement saying that there is no truth to the rumor, and the market came back down.
This actually proves that the markets can recover some of the losses over the last three days if Trump would simply reverse his current policy, or even pause it. The markets are desperately looking for any sign that Trump understands what's at stake and adjusts accordingly. He can either admit he was wrong and adjust, or we can lay the loss of trillions in market value at his feet, and his feet alone.
Maybe you should post an accurate chart because we are at 37,449 and counting...
That was when the market realized that the Fed was planning to aggressively hike rates because of inflation. The "good" news is that this latest drop is somewhat self inflicted......regardless of where you stand on whether that makes sense......but it can / will be reversed if and when there is a resolution that walks back the trade escalation.
This is just the initial reaction to the uncertainty of the stock market. If these tariffs hold the price increases will be utterly devastating.
They can recover whenever he wants it to. If he wants to go back to status quo the market will recover in a hurry. The one problem trump has different than other presidents during similar drops is deniability. Biden blamed it on Russia amongst other things for example. No dodging this bullet. But it is also something he can change at any time. Biden claimed he was helpless against it. Right now countries are starting to negotiate. No reason to at the moment. If the economy starts to falter and prices go way up, the pressure will be too great. But right now that isn’t the case. Several countries have stated they want to come to the table. For the prices to sky rocket on us, it has to sky rocket everywhere else. We are the monster consumer. The customer. Per se. Not the other way around. That is where the rubber will meet the road.
Well we found out printing money and spending like hell didn’t work so we have to try different.
What’s Monday night looking like ?
