The US?

The 'qualifications' you seek are anecdotal unless you are stupid enough post all sorts of personal verifiable information. That defies the very purpose of places like this, in which broad conversations can occur using publicly available sources without the need for divulging personal information. It's the internet, anyone can 'be' whatever they want, but you still have to prove what you say with sources anyone can access.

If Europe's leaders were acting as irresponsibly as trump is the markets here, and there, would be down 10%.

I am not wrong. I've been investing as long as you. I forgot more about the markets than you. The fact that you're saying the DOW is down when the markets are actually closed tells me you know nothing about what you're talking about.

The fact that you deny DOW 50,000 is right around the corner and has been on fire since Trump took office tells me all I need to know.

Leave the markets to the adults. Go play somewhere else.

You say this...but don't seem to understand the concept of premarket trading?

Dow Jones futures dropped 1.4%, or around 700 points, in premarket trading, as S&P 500 futures lost 1.5%. Nasdaq 100 futures were down 1.9% ahead of the opening bell.

You are wrong, plain and simple:

The stock market is down sharply today with the DOW down 850 points, the SPX is down 127 points and the NASDAQ is down 530 points at 5:30 am. that is down about 2% below Friday's close.

This is due to Trump's words on acquiring Greenland and also due to the statement he made about raising

AI Overview

The stock market is opening lower today, January 20, 2026, primarily due to President Trump's escalating threats of massive tariffs on European imports (especially over Greenland) and potential retaliatory actions, creating significant global trade uncertainty and driving a risk-off sentiment, with investors also reacting to rising Japanese bond yields and ongoing tech sector concerns
.
AI Overview

When the stock market drops by 2%, it represents a decline in total market capitalization of roughly
$2.5 trillion to $3 trillion, based on 2025 global equity values of over $140 trillion.

This is a perfect example of how American investors (and world investors in U.S. stocks) see Trump's actions, and this is not a positive (but a negative) response to what he is doing. Goes to prove that generally speaking, Trump is hurting the U.S. and not MAGA.

You are in this field so you know the market goes up and down.

You are in this field so you know the market goes up and down.

And you don't know that Trump's crazy tariff antics are affecting these ups and downs?

LOL. He's had tariffs for one year now and the markets are up during that time. Boy are you stupid.

Oh I see, so if the markets are up, then that means they couldn't possibly be MORE up if a president wasn't doing stupid shit to keep it down.

Logic bullet proof.

Ummmmmmmmmmm, the thread and you are claiming markets were down due to Trump tariffs. Now you admit that was a lie but markets could be up even more.

LOL screaming about fake money being lost. People don’t lose on stocks unless they sell.

The stock market was at 43k when President Trump took office. It’s now at 48 - 49k.

So STFU with your stupid lies.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

No, this is due to years, decades of frivolous spending. Now that we're 40 trillion in the hole due to never ending spending by both of these worthless parties, countries around the world will start demanding payment backed by gold, silver, precious metals............and we're already seeing it, gold near 5000 an ounce and silver at 95 right now. Silver and gold are decoupling from the dollar. We are about to see something profound. This has nothing to do with tariffs.

 

[Luckyone]

LOL. He's had tariffs for one year now and the markets are up during that time. Boy are you stupid.

If you check, every SINGLE time that he has mentioned that he is (or will be if) raising tariffs, the stock market goes down. When he has backed tariffs (like when he brought tariffs against China from 135% to 35%) or said nothing new about tariffs, the market has gone up (or at least not gone down).

Doesn't that show you that you are wrong in your reply?

The markets are up since Trump took office one year ago. Fact or not?

you are claiming markets were down due to Trump tariffs.

Stop making up bullshit and go read what I've said again.

Understood, but what is real is that market value and equity have lost VALUE overnight!

You are in a thread attacking Trump for markets being down when they are up.

Can you even imagine these idiots being happy about markets being up all before Trump got elected?

anyone find it interesting this poster claimed the stock market was down 850 points today? and he did it at 5:48 AM, hours before the market even opened?

It's called premarket trading ignoramus.

This is from 7 hours ago:

Stock Market Today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq Slide; Why Stocks Are Tumbling; Trump Tariff Fears; Netflix, Micron, Intel, Nvidia, More Movers

The Dow S&P 500, and Nasdaq are dropping Tuesday as the stock market digests President Donald Trump's tariff threats over plans to acquire Greenland.

The stock market has boomed since Trump took office, it's much higher....the S&P gained 15 percent,, the Dow 12 percent, and the
