A lot of corrupt people want to drive the market down now, so they can buy low, knowing it will bounce back and make them rich. A lot of market fluctuations are purposeful and bogus, done by groups of get rich slime balls
If you are so sure about all this by call options on the S & P 500 when it dips further. You can make a ton of money with a very small investment.
Well first, the Democrats own over 95% of the Media. How are Republicans hyping the virus to make Trump look bad? Which Republicans are doing this?
Many Republicans are downplaying the threat of the virus and some may be doing so or thinking so in the context of its political impact if it triggers an economic downturn before the election.
I guess this is now the place to discuss the market since the other ongoing TWO year old thread praising Trump for its rise seems to have been permanantly shut down today (ironically just as the market was).
Just as Trump was not much responsible for its rise, he is not entirely to blame for its cataclysmic drop, the biggest in history. The President has very little sway over the market as it is the product of many many factors which no single entity can control.
pathetic and cruel, bureaucat, to celebrate a global health and economic crises because you hate president trump.
men, women and children are dying and more will die. workers won't get paid due to canceled events, reduced customer traffic, and being quarantined. businesses will go under. people will be financially devastated.
the most callous and evil among us celebrate such a catastrophe.
You have fabricated the celebration.
That's just politicizing the issue (and yes folks on the other side have as well.
There is concern on the real impact and how we are addressing the problem here in the USA. That's not a celebration that's a concern.
Italy recently announced a total lockdown in the richest parts of the country with armed military guards at all checkpoints and long prison sentences for anyone who dares to leave. It is economically devastating.
25% of Italy’s population is under a lockdown order. Yet, here is a picture of Italians in an outdoor cafe enjoying the weather yesterday.
I don’t see the military arresting people at gunpoint.
Fingers crossed. I'm 2-3 years away from retirement.
I’m long since retired and at the point in life where I have to take minimum withdrawals from deferred compensation stocks, so I’m certainly not cheering on the decline, as a couple of nut cases have alleged in this thread.
By far the largest drop ever. We are way below the market levels from two years ago.
You really need to be more honest/accurate.
Largest POINT drop ever, which is meaningless compared to the way it should be measured, which is by percentage change. But both you and I know anyone without political bias knows the percentage is the proper way to measure performance.
And has now partially rebounded by +600, to 24,440.
