The Stock Market has Declined ever since the Democrats won the House!

[Mac1958]

I guess I could give credit to the Dem House for the 1,000+ point gain today, but that would be as stupid as the other stupid stuff I've seen here.

 

[WaitingFor2020]

MARKET IS NOW UP OVER A THOUSAND POINTS!
But I guess that Obama should be taking credit for it!

You started this idiot thread, now you got to own it.

Oh really? Tell us how the market reacts. For instance, lets say investors who are bye and large capitalists see a socialist onslaught coming.

Do you think many of them would start selling off or start to liquidate their investments and hide it from the high taxes they anticipate would be coming?

Elaborate, given that both parties hate Trump.
This should be interesting and intellectually weak.

What does that have to do with you never admitting anything?

I don't know what someone like you means by "socialism". You folks throw around silly hyperbole as naturally as I breathe.

Beyond anything else, especially petty partisan politics, markets are about earnings. Markets would react to that. Domestically, globally.

Therefore I don't know, and you sure as hell don't.

Going to answer the questions now? Go ahead, do you feel it would be typical of someone with many assets to liquidate those assets if they feel there is going to be huge tax increases?

Would you hide your money the best you can?

Also, are you going to comment on those two links I put up there?

Try not being a partisan hack for once in your little life.

Fannie and Freddie share of the market went from 75% to 25% around 2003 and Bush regulators and private financial institutions wrecked the world economy, dumbass. Republicans have been trying to destroy Fannie and Freddie since it started. Pure garbage GOP propaganda.

This is proof that Trump is bad for the market. He leaves the country and the DJI goes up by more than 1000 points.

Just kidding Trumpians, do not have a cow.

The Dems can do nothing other than harass Trump. Nothing will get past the Senate that the Repbus do not like and nothing will get past the House that the Dems do not like.

And that is the best thing that can happen to our country.

And to the market as well..

My goodness, my opinion is important to you.

Okay, here you go:

Absolutely, if individual and institutional investors saw "a socialist onslaught coming", they would dump out of the market as quickly as possible. Since socialism means the abolition of private property and the nationalization of industry, holy shit, that would crash everything faster than shit through a goose. Globally. Everywhere. Crash-O-Rama.

Fortunately, seasoned and institutional investors are, by and large, not crazed and paranoid political fundamentalists who live in simplistic little black and white worlds. They have to be curious. They have to think independently. They have to be humble and realize they should not make long-term predictions or extrapolate the future based on current data.

I hope that helps. Somehow I doubt it.

You should admit that you lie about me.

I have been advocating getting out of the ME my whole time on the forum.

I have been advocating pulling at least half the troops out of Europe and putting them on the border my whole time on the forum.

And now that Trump is starting to minimize our global military presence you’re criticizing him.
Do you even read what you post?

 

[RadicalRedneck]

Be a man and admit when you are wrong.

The market dropped in DECEMBER.

It rose 626 points today. For the moment, it is up for the year - that could change. It rose on the idea that Trump would fire Powell for his disastrous increase in rates last week. Powell is a globalist fool and should go.

Fruitcake, despite today’s wonderful bump, the Dow is currently at:

22,685.53

That’s still well below where it was one year ago today:

24,746.21

So? Markets go up and markets go down.
US economy is doing much better than the global economy

So? That doesn’t help my portfolio.

So? It's the stock market, you should have known better if you have a queasy tummy.

Can you be anything but stupid?? Anybody who’s invested has a “queasy tummy” after the Dow dropped almost 20% since October and the S&P500 slid into a bear market.

<smh>

Oh and that comment was Clever?

MARKET IS NOW UP OVER A THOUSAND POINTS!
But I guess that Obama should be taking credit for it!

If the market is up, Obama gets all the credit.
If the market is down, Trump gets all the credit.
That's the way it works on this board.

Oh? Kindly post a link to the Liberal on this forum who gave credit to Obama for today’s spike....

It was a Joke STUPID!
But I forgot, you idiotic Democrats haven't got a sense of humor!

 

[Harpy Eagle]

And now that Trump is starting to minimize our global military presence you’re criticizing him.
Do you even read what you post?

So, now admit you just lied about me again?

I have praised Trump for pulling troops out of Syria and for getting the ball in motion to pull the out of Afghanistan.

Why must you lie about me? Is this all you have...lies?

Actually, based on everything we know about how volatile the market is and how paranoid investors are (they should be), you don't think that there was a great move among individuals AND companies to prepare for party of TAX TAX TAX?

You really don't think investors act accordingly?

I know I did. Many people I know started liquidating their assets too.

I know companies were anticipating a big increase in payroll taxes, as they should have been.

Hence the large layoffs. You can think that was not a factor, and if you don't, then you live in la la land.

I guess you don't want to read those two links I provided.

No, I don't want to read the links, because then I'd have to look elsewhere to confirm the information. I don't take the word of one source, ever.

And again, there are too many variables. I don't make investment decisions for clients based on only a few data points. And anyone who saw what happened at the end of Dubya's administration knows that (a) comparatively lower taxes guarantee nothing, and (b) under-regulated capitalism can lead to massive problems. My peers know that as well.

There is much more to this than simplistic partisan politics. Thank goodness.

While it seems you are stupid, most investors know that Congress is split, so nothing that the GOP does not approve of gets past the Senate.

Nobody with a brain is worried about a split congress, in fact most people are damn happy about it.

You are a fucking moron if you liquidated your assets based on the Dems having the house. Do a little research and you will find that the market does the best under a split congress.
