America is now and has been fucked up beyond recognition since Trump took office.

Every day a new event brings greater focus onto Trump&Co., see todays:

Stocks fall after Steven Mnuchin's odd statement fails to calm markets - CNN

From the Link:

"Alarmed investors drove the Dow more than 650 points lower in a shortened trading session on Monday. Markets plunged after the Trump administration sent out confusing signals about markets and the economy.

The S&P 500 fell 2.7% and the Nasdaq was off 2.2%. The Dow, which fell 2.9%, and the S&P 500 suffered their biggest Christmas Eve declines ever.
 
Markets go up, and markets go down. I feel sorry for the poor saps who wanted to retire this year. IMHO they should postpone a year or lose a ton of money in their 401Ks.

Thats the bad thing. I have a friend who just retired earlier this year. He called me bemoaning the market drop but he is more pissed that he isnt liquid enough to take advantage of this. In retirement you should be. He knows that.
But here is the bare fact...even if you dont want to wade into Modern Portfolio Theory then just common sense tells you that you should have moved out of stocks a little bit at least if you are depending on them for your survival. It should not have to be painful. Stocks go up and down. Hopefully more up than down.
I do feel for the people retired but sorry...this is good for me. I wasnt sure I would ever catch another fire sale on stocks. This will be my last one before I move into retirement planning. Im ecstatic.
You should also remember that if you have been riding stocks over the last decade or so you are still up. I wasnt. I missed the bottom in 2009 but I did get in on that 2011 correction.

You should try something more than confirmation bias. Do you have any other sources than CNN?

left10.png


Analysis / Bias


CNN has a left bias in story selection that often favors the left while being critical of the right. For example, during the 2016 Presidential Election Pew Research concluded that the majority of CNN stories covering President Donald Trump were negative. While less dramatic, Pew also determined that more stories were negative toward Presidential candidate Mitt Romney in 2012.


CNN typically utilizes loaded emotional words in sensational headlines such as this: Trump pounces on Justice Department report findings. CNN usually sources its news properly through credible reporters/journalists and through hyperlinking to credible media sources. However, CNN has failed numerous fact checks from Politifact. It should be noted that these fact checks were almost exclusively from guests on their numerous talk shows and not from the reporting of actual news, which tends to be factual.


Overall, we rate CNN left biased based on story selection that often favors the left. We rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to misinformation and failed fact checks from guests and pundits. However, CNN’s straight news reporting would earn a High rating for factual reporting. (5/16/2016) Updated (D. Van Zandt 6/15/2018)
CNN - Media Bias/Fact Check

IOW, you can be pretty sure this "opinion" cannot, in good faith, be trusted.
 
Wow....I thought it was because of the global economy slowdown and the fed reserve raising the rate, yet again.

Or, I could be a little chippy and say that the market started the slide when the democrats won the House.

Glad we all have wry here to set us straight as to the real reason from a CNN news source.

10 Key Facts About the Republican Tax Plan -- The Motley Fool

Read carefully ^^^

How the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Will Impact the Average American -- The Motley Fool

See the savings ^^^ and who benefits and who does not.

thehill.com/policy/finance/382319-gop-tax-law-will-add-19-trillion-to-debt-cbo

LInk is wrong, the bill will add 1.9 trillion to the national debt.

Won't more reason to be pissed off by Ryan and Trump's Tax Fraud.
 
America is now and has been fucked up beyond recognition since Trump took office..............What a snowflake thing to say. Especially considering everything is better today than the day Trump was elected. Well, almost everything. Progressives dumb down with every passing day.

Every day a new event brings greater focus onto Trump&Co., see todays: You must feel insecure about your first point. Listen to your conscious.

Markets plunged after the Trump administration sent out confusing signals about markets and the economy. I'm Laughing my ASS off at you progressives......Ah...........IT'S TRUMP"S FAULT. You and your progressives would have equal merit to say stocks fell because Trump farted. If you had an operable brain you'd know that stocks are falling because:

A. Rise in interest rates.
B. Stocks were inflated.
C. Looming govt. shut-down. You can blame Trump if it makes you happy. I'll blame Demonicrats who sell-out our country for appearances and votes.
D. There's something to be said that stocks are falling because the Democrats take over the House next month.

The reader should be glad Wry is here to correct your opinions.

Or you could echo more of Trump's statements and tweets.

Chaos is why the markets have been so erratic this year. Or I can be "chippy and say" Trump's erratic behavior since he lost the H. or Rep. created the down swing; Trump has been out of the past week, along with his firing of Sect. Mattis and Trump's flip flop on the CR.

Trump is the Bull in the China Shop, untethered and breaking all the rules. Our economy is based as much on consumer confidence and psychology than other metrics and his inability to lead has led to this.

Markets go up, and markets go down. I feel sorry for the poor saps who wanted to retire this year. IMHO they should postpone a year or lose a ton of money in their 401Ks.

Thats the bad thing. I have a friend who just retired earlier this year. He called me bemoaning the market drop but he is more pissed that he isnt liquid enough to take advantage of this. In retirement you should be. He knows that.
But here is the bare fact...even if you dont want to wade into Modern Portfolio Theory then just common sense tells you that you should have moved out of stocks a little bit at least if you are depending on them for your survival. It should not have to be painful. Stocks go up and down. Hopefully more up than down.
I do feel for the people retired but sorry...this is good for me. I wasnt sure I would ever catch another fire sale on stocks. This will be my last one before I move into retirement planning. Im ecstatic.
You should also remember that if you have been riding stocks over the last decade or so you are still up. I wasnt. I missed the bottom in 2009 but I did get in on that 2011 correction.
