CNN: Dow Set to Soar after Trump Team Dramatically Lowers Tariffs with China

[DBA]

Odanny doesn't have the very first clue

There is a reason these people are all about soaking the "rich". They clearly aren't in that mix.

The money on the side isn't there for long. It is there to invest in short term trades. I don't make most of my money from day trading, however, I am able top take advantage of good buys when I see them. I will be making a nice return on Tesla in only a few weeks time, which far exceeds what I would have made had I had the money invested in the market while you simpletons were all selling and tanking the market. I told you about Tesla a few weeks ago, so yeah, you can call it luck if you want.

BTW, I have several friends who day trade and they regularly beat the market. If they didn't, they wouldn't be trading. They would just invest and let it ride.

Sure, sure, sure. You all just so happen to be in the 5% of people who beat the market consistently.

Sorry, but I just don’t buy it. Since I’d never ask for proof, and you’d never give it, we can let it drop.

But the statistics about successful day trading are very real.

 

[Marener]

You just don't get it, but I don't care. You do what you want I will continue to make higher returns on a portion of my investments when the opportunity arises. Having some money on the side ready to invest is common sense.

No. Common sense is you’re unlikely to successfully gamble against professional traders. Common sense is you’re emotionally tied up in the idea that you’re “smarter” than everyone else and over confident.

Money on the side is money wasted.

 

[Mashmont]

Not remotely true.

Our trade imbalance with China was about $300B. No where near enough to generate tax revenue of $500B. Take your meds boy.

Half a trillion. "How did the son of a bitch pull this off?" - leftwing operative.

Question: Do any of you leftwingers believe airhead Kamala would have been capable of orchestrating this? How about airhead Cortez. Well, those are your two frontrunners for 2028.

Like I said, I guess I just got lucky with my one Telsa pick, right? I told you the stock to buy, you didn't buy it because you didn't have any money on the side to invest. I did and who is better off?

Pure ignorance.

Orchestrating what? Trump surrendered on tariffs that he imposed that cratered the stock market last month. Harris wouldn’t have imposed them in the first place.

In the short run? You did better. In the long run, I have a 90%+ chance of beating you.

I invest for the long run.

Comedy Gold!

 

[odanny]

Why would that be a lie?

Because you have to have lots of money in the market to make lots of money today.

Duh.

 

[Marener]

Pure ignorance.

Not at all. You haven’t seen the data about day traders?

You really need to account for your cognitive bias.

Trump 'surrendered', but we netted hundreds of billions in the process. lol. But you're right. Kamala would have allowed us to keep on getting screwed. She would have done nothing. She wouldn't know how. She doesn't have the intelligent, insight, or ability.

I carefully pick and choose when and where to invest my money on the side. In this case, I will pocket the profits, minus my short term capital gains, and buy something nice. The principle amount will be set aside again for a week or two, depending on what is going on in the markets. The way it is going now, it is easy pickings because negative nellies who watch CNN with baited breathe sell every time they hear a negative tariff story. Great times for people like me to buy the dip when I KNOW it will be coming back very shortly.

Democrats are panicking now.

You're gambling. You don’t “know” anything.

 

[22lcidw]

You mean the market we already had access too before Trump started a trade war?

If none of this works, tell us what the Progressives are going to do. They will do nothing. Come to power and raise the taxes of the rich in a huge way. Raise the taxes of the corporate world in a huge way. According to you this will have no effect on prices and employment. Progs have had some opportunities including the first two years of Joe's administration to raise the taxes to astronomical levels and they did not. They actually caused inflation and hurt the lower classes as inflation on purpose is a tax. It is a tax.

 

[DBA]

You're gambling. You don’t “know” anything.

Sure, there is an element of risk, but I take calculated risk. I am not just throwing darts at the DOW and the S&P. You are taking risks by putting you money into and ETF or a mutual fund.

 

[Orangecat]

Every move in Trump’s chess game makes the useful idiots on the left look even more idiotic and irrationally triggered. Good times!

 

[Orangecat]

And how are you going to measure the “net gain” exactly?

By how loudly you whine about it.

Im betting on the US economy. Not any individual company.

I’ve heard gamblers brag that they can beat the house, but we all know that’s pretty unlikely, especially in the long run.

In a way, you’re not even gambling on companies but on the unpredictable mood swings of Trump.
