LOL
Look at the world situation and the 'leadership' in charge and tell me why the market has any reason to go up.
I’m not saying the markets going up this year or down. That’s not why I invest. I have a multi decade investment time horizon and what I do know is We have had better leadership and we’ve had worse leadership. We’ve been through worse times and have had better times. We also have a century of history showing that the stock market is an incredible wealth creator for those that are not emotional about investing and stay the course.

We have never had worse leadership at a worse time. Have you noticed that Russia has been threatening the use of nukes ever more frequently now as we continue to mindlessly arm Ukraine? Inflation is raging and isn't coming down any time soon. Housing market may collapse. Student loan payments are eventually going to be restarted. And so on.

BG, you let the noise bother you way too much. When has the world situation ever been peaceful? When has political leadership anywhere ever been great? Read this quote and understand what it's saying:
"In the 20th century, the United States endured two world wars and other traumatic and expensive military conflicts; the Depression; a dozen or so recessions and financial panics, oil shocks, a flu epidemic, and the resignation of a disgraced president. Yet the Dow rose from 66 to 11,497."
