Well if the Fed says the "economy is good" then why is Trump today blaming the Fed for the huge drop?

If the market keeps dropping, the GOP can kiss their majority goodbye in Nov. The economy was the only platform the GOP had.

Another one with the economy and the market are the same mentality.


One of the reasons now being given for the drop in the market is the possibility that Dems could gain some control in congress. That would be disastrous for both the market and the economy.

Oh.. is that a preview of the GOP talking points should the market continue nose diving before the election? Heck, who cares about their 401K anyway. If the economy is good, seniors can get minimum wage service jobs to supplement their dwindling social security checks.

So you would assume that people who are retired have all of their money in stocks?
