You are right there are Republicans panicking too. I was trying to give my personal experience with clients. It goes both ways, I had conservative clients go all cash scared of Biden and lost a ton of equity on the sidelines

We can all agree the last couple of days sucked. I am a Certified Financial Planner and manage over $200 million in assets. Most of my clients have been through many economic cycles so very few selling the past few weeks. We did trim some stocks early February after the nice start to the year though. The only clients that have liquidated their stock positions, and it isn't many, has been left leaning clients. I believe the media has been so negative (anti-Trump) and that has helped investor sentiment be the lowest is has been in a long time. Guys like Physic Observer saying they went all cash are panicking. I would guess the huge majority of people who went all cash this week are liberals. If that is the case then yes you kind of can blame the Dems for this sell off.

Vietnam just offered to set all US tariffs at zero. If other countries follow will you laugh at that as well?

Any common sense argument is dumb to you. This is why liberals can't be taken seriously.

That would be me, needed MSU to cover 4 and lost on that meaningless 3 at the buzzer.

Seattle would be the worst place to live in terms of horrible Earthquake possibility with Cascadia fault line and also the multiple volcanos they could trigger

My plays today Michigan/A&M Under 143 1/2 Parlay Drake +7 and Drake/TT over 126 1/2 Auburn -8 1/2 Tenn -5 1/2 Wisconsin -1 Big on Houston -4 1/2

Betting a lot of unders tomorrow

Started out good and had a slow horrid finish

Headed

You know why I know Ron Artest is a troll? He only posts in here on down days like the schmuck he is.

I have seen signs in front of homes with these exact wordings near me. Usually it is a black sign with letters a different color for each. I laugh every time and think to myself why would this homeowner out himself/herself as a moron?

Saints used to somewhat normal and now he is batschiiit crazy with severe TDS

Yes sorry contributions

Exactly. Also, your 401k contributions are going in at a cheaper price now.

If we add up the number of federak workers who have been fired so far and those that accepted a buyout offer to give up their jobs, it represents less than 0.1% of nationwide employment.

This simply isn't true. You are getting your info from left leaning media that hates Trump. We have had a couple of very good years in the market and we came into this year a little overvalued. Pullbacks of 10% are normal and the underlying fundamentals of the economy such as the labor market are strong. Corporate earnings are expected to grow a healthy 8% and the AI boom will continue to be a growth catalyst. Volatility was expected with the initiation of Tariffs but they are more of a negotiating tactic and I do not believe they will be on long enough to cause any sustained economic damage. The Atlanta GDPNow report you seem to love showing estimated -2.4% for 1st quarter is severely flawed. Yes, consumer spending was down in January but that is normal after December as it was down last January as well. More importantly, there was a surge in gold imports that GDPNow counted that actual GDP does not count. That alone would increase the estimate by 2%. Add in that with impending tariffs there was a huge surge in imports in January which distorted the trade imbalance and negatively affected the estimate. Finally, the March 6th Labor report showed resilience in the Labor market and will add another .5% not reflected in that estimate. In summary, the media and apparently liberals like you are assuming the worst with the tariffs. Allowing other countries to apply tariffs on us for years made no sense and the reciprocal tariffs seem logical right?

Your ignorance is celebrating the down days and blaming Trump and acting like it is a lock that we are going into a recession.

Thanks for admitting this. I know you hate Trump and celebrate when the market is down. Your ignorance is on display daily.

What is your projection for the S&P 500 to end 2025 at? It is currently 5586 and started year at 5882.

Squissy thinks CNN is not biased lol

LOL at all the morons saying the economy is tanking

I continue to be floored that folks you you admit to have voted for Harris and think Biden did a good job.

We aren't anywhere near going into a recession

10% corrections are normal and happen almost every year. After back to back years of over 25% returns on the S&P 500 with little volatility I can see some new investors be a little shocked. We are still in a pro business environment and the S&P 500 will be positive again in 2025.
