I'm predicting the DJIA rising 10% by Summer. Mark it down.

[Matted Joybeard]

10% positive by summer? Look how far it has fallen and how far it would have to rise to get to that level. Seems delusional to think it will be positive 10%.

I find it hard to believe that by summer Trump's tariff war will be over. Until that happens the market is going nowhere but down.

A rebound in the stock market signifies a turning point where prices start increasing again after a period of decline or weakness. In other words after a significant movement the market is moving in the opposite direction.

IMHO, the market wants to see some economic news before continuing down or reversing it's trend and heading up. The Import price index is due a week from Thursday. That should give us a good indication as where retail prices and consumer spending is going.

That's why it ended in the red today again.

70 countries have envoys in DC right now to discuss tariffs. Trump did that.

No one can predict the market. Anyone who tries is either selling something or is just eager to demonstrate their ignorance.

You know this how?

 

[Care4all]

Time to do a Matt Gaetz, and fire and replace Speaker Johnson, for not doing the job of Congress as a check on the President and his abuse of presidential power, per the Constitution.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Futures down again.

 

[Care4all]

Futures down again.

Damn!

Interest rates rocketed higher yesterday.

Normally they do the opposite in a recession.

Potentially several causes:
1. The world has lost confidence in our bonds.
2. The market is demanding higher rates because it's expecting high inflation.
3. The main reason countries buy US bonds is to collateralize trade with us, so no trade means we get to finance our own debt as well as make our own socks.

Trump opens his mouth, the markets go down, inflation goes up, and recession stalks closer.

Who here won't be hurt. I can handle it because I began preparing my finances at 16.

As you may recall, Mashie called the 2024 election, predicting that Trump would win easily. I also called the Super Bowl, missing the score only by a handful of points.
And now, I'm predicting a 46000 DOW by summer. Trump's great plan starts to gain traction and kick in. He predicted things would be a little hard at first. The left, of course jumps on every down day in the stock market, while saying nothing when it rises. We have all these articles citing Trump's failures, blah blah, his disgruntled supporters, blah blah Those stories will disappear from the internet come summer. Not a trace of them to be found. The leftwing media will be on to some other talking point to try to undermine Trump's great success. Of course if things get too successful, the leftwing meme will be 'greed'. Remember the 'Decade of Greed'? That was Reagan's unprecedented economic success.

Let's see how it plays out.

Who wants to take this prediction on (and have to apologize in a few months?) Anyone?

I'm marking it down. But how do consider "by summer?" Memorial Day, Flag Day, or the Solstice? In my family, we use Juneteenth to impress the neighbors.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

We will level out by early September the way things are going.

If tomorrow or whenever Trump gives up, the market will sky rocket.

Mashmont is expressing his hopes based on nothing.

Trump just paused the tariffs, the markets are up big.

His attempt to punish Americans who voted against him with the Trump Economic Virud (TEV) has failed. This time.

And your apology is accepted. Fricking 3000 point rise today.

Market up 3000 today. When will you people EVER learn?

During the summer at some point.
