Tariff war US will lose bigly as anything we sell can be bought somewhere else but what we buy is mostly made in China. US farmers could take a bigger hit.

Approaching -500

Have a look

And over 900 points higher than Monday's low.

So maybe the "ha ha ha" also was premature?

that ha ha ha.

It's tempting to see where the market is at a particular point in the trading day and assume that whatever direction it's heading is the direction it will continue to head.

On Monday, the downward move of the market was followed closely and even described by some as a "crash". The fact that it began to recover and continued to do so on Tuesday -- not a lot of posts about that.

And today folks saw the futures market and the early movement of the market as, once again, evidence that the market was tanking. But by the end of the day? Not so much.

The market is down over the past several months, which should be shocking to no one -- it was inflated and everyone knew it and that makes for volatility. That volatility is accentuated because people still react to a move of 300 points the same way as they did when the market was 6000, when in fact a move of 300 points is not nearly as significant when the market is at 24,000.

Which was the day before Trump’s big tariff announcement re: aluminum and steel.

This is not going to work economically. But I see how it would work for him politically with the meatheads who don’t understand cause and effect of protectionism.

-John Maynard Keynes.

But Trump hasn't repealed the law of economics.

market hate this and could easily spin out of control with a 30-40% correction in next few weeks. Today was 730pts....trump adds more fuel to fire and china says no more US treasuries....crash US markets

...still not enough to actually check though.

Is this getting through to his rich sycophants yet?

talking nukes and conventional war as a bullying tactic. Then, it's all going to start crumbling faster.

It's time for Mueller to submit a preliminary report with whatever he has.

1500 points. Otherwise this is absolutely nothing.

On March 9 it it was 25,336
as of this posting it is 23,663

its down almost 1700 points

it was well over 26,600 in January

I'd say this is something.

while I agree a correction was due, I was responding to you 1500 drop posting.

That's one correction that's way over due.

That's next

I don't know what is happening in the Pork Bellies market.

like that Con supporter Joni Ernst.

More winning from the Con

Damn

and 3 mins later -558

Crazy

Thank goodness my entire retirement is not invested in the market, but how much more of this can we take?

Will middle-class America watch everything vanish before they decide they've had enough of this "pResidency?"

He no longer talks about the market, of course. And, I suppose, his base does not invest but when will Ryan and Turtle realize that tanking the market IS a threat to national security and finally start impeachment?

They are all approaching retirement age

Believe me

This clown has no idea what he's doing

expect consequences. When you impose tariffs on goods from China, expect them to do the same to you.
He's a fucking idiot with no sense and an obsession with vengeance.

Enjoy those Chinese tariffs on your hogs and produce Trump loving farmers!

Who fired the first shot?

Fuck the Con!

Dow Jones minus 661

NYSE minus 329

NASDAQ minus 228

Approaching -700 now
-675.75 (2.80%)

Lots of republiKLAN voters are getting their 401K's decimated though.

There is some history of insider trading based on knowledge of pending government action.

Damn!

Freaking republicans need to shut up, sit down, and resign from all positions of authority...Sad.

Except lining his own pockets! Corrupt!

according to Ali Velshi

One day he's backing off Tariffs and then next he's doubling them. He's such a nut bar I wish someone would lock him in a padded room with a straight jacket and put duck tape over his mouth for the rest of his term.

Damn
