Strange coincidence. October and the markets are down. Whodathunkit? When it rebounds we can all revisit and high five each other right?

Trump is blaming it on his own Fed--their fault.

Only because he cannot blame it on Hillary, Obama or the Chinese.

You think so? I'm thinking it could not be better.

Even farmers in flyover country whose markets Trump destroyed are talking about having to "vote with their wallets" in November. We knew eventually Trump's idiocy would catch up to him. I'd say the timing is perfect.

The unfettered glee expressed by the OP at the remote thought of bad news for the USA is disgusting.

Glad I sold almost everything 2-3 days ago - makes me smart!

You were either very smart or very lucky. When investors try to time the market the masses lose their asses.

The bad news is self-inflicted by conservatives and their demagogue in the White House. You elected a fool and now the fool's policies are coming back to haunt him. If you support the fool, you own this too.

"Although an instrument of the US Government, the Federal Reserve System considers itself "an independent central bank because its monetary policy decisions do not have to be approved by the President or anyone else in the executive or legislative branches of government ..."

IOW, the Fed is not really "his own Fed" -- They quite often get arbitrary regarding interest rates and are sometimes at odds with the President

Of course, we all know "everything negative is always Trump's fault" ... and "everything positive is merely a continuation of Obama's policies"

I didn't vote for him (didn't vote for the criminal he ran against either). But I sure as hell will in 2020!
