    Is this what FBGs was like?

    I love how Tim says with certainty that 90% of reporting was done by conservatives. What a load of crap. Liberals made the PSF a cesspool and mashed the report button on any conservative poster. Conservatives got banned way more than liberals and that is a fact. The Mods were so bad and biased, none worse than that asshat Clayton Gray.

    Stock Market bubble - will crash

    Only people with TDS believe this nonsense
  3. If you truly believe tariffs are here to stay long term I advise you to liquidate all your stocks and short the market as we haven't sniffed the bottom. I think that would be extremely unwise as this morning you can see how the market will react with any hint of tariff easing or reductions. To think the tariffs will remain at 25% effective rate is crazy as Trump set them deliberately high as to be able to negotiate.
  4. Stock market and economy are not one in the same. Underlying economy still very solid. Only prolonged tariffs will hurt economy. I am willing to bet that we get deals worked out relatively quickly and the now 25% effective tariff rate is lowered to around 10% where the economy will avoid a recession.

    I got permabanned from there for saying I wish I could "dislike" a post. It was a post from Joe Bryant where he was siding with libtards

    I do expect many countries to come to an agreement short term. We will see.

    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.
  10. Vietnam just offered to set all US tariffs at zero. If other countries follow will you laugh at that as well?
  11. Any common sense argument is dumb to you. This is why liberals can't be taken seriously.

    7.7 earthquake in Myanmar now upgraded to 8.2

    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

    Which lib has been broken the most by Trump?

    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?

    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?
