Baker Boy 1,485 Posted October 18, 2017 Regardless of predictions, you'd really have to be a special kind of stupid if you aren't hoping for continued success of the economy. I'm sure all Democrats (who have a bit of money saved/invested) are thrilled the economy is doing well under Trump and all Republicans were happy it did well under Obama. Although in neither case would they be willing to give credit to the President. I was just pointing out the lies and scare tactics the Left uses to influence its gullible minions. It also shows that Obama was holding the economy back with his thousands of regulation on business. Trump has already reversed many of those regulation. Trump wins and the market breaks loose! There will be an adjustment coming and the timing of that adjustment is what is important today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frank 2,145 Posted January 25, 2018 Serious question about interest rates. How would an increase be expected to affect the stock market and retirement accounts? As someone with a savings account and no debt, I say raise rates as much as you want but not if it screws with my retirement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Debt is more expensive which cuts profits and slows expansion and business investment. Lowers asset prices/values. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frank 2,145 Posted January 25, 2018 let it ride... Oh yeah. Im not touching anything. I'm just maxing out retirement and rebalancing once or twice a year on the advice of the guy. That and a saving account is all I have making money for me. Wouldn't mind getting a few more dollars interest on the savings, but that will never match the potential of the retirement accounts.
