Apples to apples , please.
The conversation, and the associated reference to 15%,, is/was about the DJIA.

44,882 on Jan 30th, 2025
37,965 on April 7th, 2025

44,882 - 37,965 = 6,917

6,917/44,882 =0.154 which is 15.4%.


C'mon, you are too easy.

Your NASDAQ drop almost perfectly matched that if Jan 1 2022 to April 1 2022 - -23.9%
That NASDAQ fall, BTW, bottomed out in December 2022, at 37.1%

He knows nothing about what he feels he is presenting

I don't recall the current suspects predicting doom and gloom while this was going on.
Hmm.
Funny what partisan bigotry does to people.

Not sure if it’s bigotry and ignorance. They don’t understand the market they are simply repeating what they are told

DJA Roughly down 10% YTD. Been creeping back up. Up again today across the board. VIX down.
Not bad for reworking the planet to stop Obiden stupidity and corruption.

Aw. You've devolved to lying.
I accept your surrender.

These ding-a-lings can't see past the 24-hr news cycle.

Copying me is a sign of weakness.
Get your own material Cletus.

Todays lefties might compare a downturn in the stock market to the "Great Depression" but it's as dishonest as the time in history they cite. America elected FDR to fix a economic downturn in1932 and his administration turned it into what's known as The Great Depression in his first 100 days that lasted to his first two terms. Nobody in the media dared to criticize a popular democrat at the time and soup lines and bodies in ditches became the norm for FDR's first two terms. Democrats still consider FDR one of the greatest presidents. Go figure.

Nothing here changes the fact you lied about telling me I was wrong.

This is just another example of how the (D)ishonest prey upon the emotions of the ignorant.
Its all they have,

Cletus.

Dear Lord Simp.
I never LIED, and I feel no need to tell you that you were wrong, when obviously you are wrong.

Do the Math.

If you are able.

I'm guessing you don't know what to do with these numbers........figure it out Simp.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Dear Lord Simp.

Aw. Aren't you cute.

I never LIED,

You did.
You claimed you already told me I was wrong, when in fact you know you had not.
That's a lie, Cletus.

 

[SweetTea]

TSLA still had an PE ratio of 116. I don't buy hype.

Marener, oops, wrong again.

I told you to buy. Oh well.

The Trump rout is taking on historic dimensions.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed almost 1,000 points on Monday and is headed for its worst April performance since 1932, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The S&P 500’s performance since Inauguration Day is now the worst for any president up to this point in data going back to 1928, according to Bespoke Investment Group.

Worries about trade restrictions and the prospect of President Trump firing Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell have investors bracing for greater losses ahead. Corporate earnings reports are rolling in, along with executives’ tariff-dented outlooks for the months ahead. Few think the administration’s negotiations with trade partners will yield results soon enough to ease the strain.

Meanwhile, counterweights that usually strengthen when stocks fall—such as government bonds and the U.S. dollar—are also under pressure, leaving investors with few havens to wait out the storm.

“It’s the hallmark of the ‘no confidence’ trade,” said Scott Ladner, chief investment officer at Horizon Investments. The Charlotte-based firm trimmed its U.S. equity position several weeks ago to favor more international stocks. “It’s impossible to commit capital to an economy that is unstable and unknowable because of policy structure.”

********************************************

Because of Trump’s idiocy, we are no longer taking about recession but depression.

As most of us know who are not in the MAGA cult, Trump is stupendously inept and incompetent. The Trump Regime has caused chaos in this nation and around the world. Since Trump’s election our standing around the world has all but disintegrated.

It is time the nation realizes, as the markets increasingly realize, that Trump is an irrational actor.

The warning signs are everywhere. A stock market in free fall and a bond market on the verge of collapse.

Even the WSJ acknowledges this reality.

Was your post from April and April fools joke?

When Trump was wrecking the economy with high inflation and UE, the market in the summer and fall was rocking.
