It's transitory.

The problem is orangeman is open to the possibility of a recession, investors know it, bad slide, how to change?
-
Drop the stock market, pump the bond market, Fed drops rates, refinance the debt.
This is the way.

don't you think there is a small chance these tariffs are the cause, and they are fucking stupid? He's on the way to tanking the economy to prove some crackpot point. Also, the stock market is plummeting on only the perceived Canada/Mexico a lot of the tariffs are on hold again. If 100% invoked it will nosedive
-
This isn't exactly new information ….
-
the stock market crashing is only good when Trump does it.
-
The main problem is the idiot wants it to be like the glory rust belt days suddenly returning with tariffs. The whole thing is crackpot at the same level as Kennedy jr
-
Buying opportunity... but yes Trump needs to get his shit together with these tarrifs putting them on then holding them back is not a good look despite what his cheerleaders are saying here... he has been great everywhere else though.

Nothing can be done! We need to just let other countries force us to finance and protect them through tariffs and open economic borders to our own country! Then we need to spend trillions protecting those same countries militarily. Pay for 40% of the UN's cost, spend billions on their wars, let them steal our technology and inventions and then let them turn around and sell it to us at undercut prices while they don't allow us to sell our products into their countries. Invent new drugs and chemistry that saves lives and sell it cheaper in foreign countries, tariff free, while American citizens pay for the invention at higher prices.
Yeah, nothing can be done and damn Trump for correcting a bad situation for the American consumer! We SHOULD be paying tariffs when our neighbors aren't. We should allow foreign countries to protect their markets when we don't!
I know the lefts voters aren't all that bright and their leaders are telling them to go out and bitch about a momentary stock market drop, but one has to be not only stupid and dependent but also anti American to not want to correct the wrongs and then use the cause to hurt a political opponent. This is just another example of liberals putting politics above people and country.
Bye the way, I don't remember hearing a peep from these liberal ass hats when bidens disastrous fiscal policies and money printing was killing the middle class with inflation. Fucking dishonest hypocrites.

Either CWU breeds a special kind of elitism, or you really don't get it.

They are trying to rebuild the economy to solve this problem. (Also highlighted in the Chamath tweet from my link above — Main St v Wall St.) Historically a fight championed by the left and Democrats. If you were paying attention, they were both declaring, since before the election, the process would be bad for the market in the short term. All of this isn't new news. Really.
LIPO.

While it’s not a great short/medium term economic indicator I want it to dive lower. I’m in my 40s and currently only have about 30% of my cash in the stock market. I’m fine with the dip. Gimme that buying opportunity in 2025/26.
the market only matters when you buy and when you cash out. -
Or just stick with it one way or another... pick one
-
Neo-Leftist is upset his stock portfolio is taking a hit as government corruption and unfair trade policy is being dealt with by new administration.
If you’re whining about a 3% dip on an index, you’re way over leveraged and deserve to go broke.
Man of the people! Fuck the poors. Although I don’t believe for a minute AOG has much more than a government pension dependent on generic market performance.

Trump is wrong and Massie is right. Fuck the stock market cut spending now. Make the short term pain become long term gain. I know congress has to make deals but for fucks sake at least try. You get America paying attention to waste and fraud and then say never mind let's do it again. How about primaries for the big spenders?
-
Agree- Rip the band aid off. Make the corporate motherfuckers pay for running their businesses based on their quarterly earnings reports and restricted stock unit price.
Cut spending, end the foreign grifts, drill baby drill and come back in a year or so like the country was put on P90X.

Aka…Stock manipulation. Seriously someone keep an eye on trump and musks stock purchases, it will become clear
-
Listen to Throbber, he would know. He recommends stocks to you that take 50% dives!!!

What’s clear is they they are trying to create a better economic future for this country to help you and are doing so at massive financial and personal cost.Someone just like you shot Trump, Spaz. You’re just too much a pussy to take action yourself.

Orange-combover is also conflating his crackpot "annex Canada" scheme into the tariffs. Nobody other than him actually voices interest in this idea.
-
He's gone senile.

Love our resident demonrat commies. Other countries charge USA tariffs, Hurray!!!
We charge them the same tariff rate and the world will end…
History is your friend.
Factories making stuff here is much better than foreign factories making stuff and shipping it.
Demonrats hate American jobs. Unless its gender fluid.

You mean like you have done when your people were in charge? Pelosi, schumer, etc. You know, those elected officials who have gotten rich off of insider trading?
-
Tariffs bad for the US consumer. Higher business income taxes, sales taxes, property taxes are good for the US consumer, because … Government fraud and waste funded by debt is good for the US consumer. Higher energy prices are good for the US consumer. Leftard economics in a nutshell.

The Dow was around 8000 in 1989
We can survive a 44,000 to 42,000 dip
Spending is the issue
-
Sounds like you have it figured out. Why aren't you making any money?
-
The Tariffs are contributing to the slide, along with over leveraging, consumer debt hitting a ceiling, savings rates still near all time lows. The biggest reason for the collapse is to force the Fed into lowering interest rates. We have around 7-9T dollars needing to be refinanced by September, we’d much rather do it at say 2-3% than 5-6%. The interest savings alone would be upwards to $200B a year. In case you’re wondering, yes this is being done on purpose.
-
if we don’t get a big recession, and force drastic interest rate cuts, our interest on the national debt could exceed $1.5T per year.
-
FFine, Then charge them... don't put them on and take them off a day later because the market freaks.

Just landed in NY, headed down to Wall Street to this settled.

Keep working those phones @Bob_C !
