Stocks and earnings surge, and Iran deal may be imminent: What to watch this week

[Hafar1014]

Every day, with every post, you prove yourself to be dumb and dumber.


Democrats don't support Hamas or any wars at all. Stop blaming Democrats for Trump's stupidity and arrogance. That's what got you into this mess in the first place.

Democrats with their never ending comments about how Trump is losing the war they are going to stop it encourages Iran to stall and buy time hoping democrats win the house and vote to stop the war. Thats aid and comfort to an enemy. Democrats are the Tokyo Rose of today. Traitors because they hate Trump so much they are willing to support a deadly enemy. You defend that. Whos dumb here. You did it in your post just now Trump is stupid and arrogant. How many hotels have you built. The term for you is bimbo

May 18, 2026 — A brokerage account bearing the president's name made 3642 trades in the first quarter of 2026.

Trump’s new filing appears to offer the first public look in modern presidential history at an active public-markets portfolio in a sitting president’s name.
The Office of Government Ethics report documents 3,642 individual trades made through the account in the first three months of 2026—between $220 million and $750 million in volume at a pace of roughly 60 trades per day.
The filing doesn’t always specify whether a given transaction is a stock, bond, or ETF.

They really need to bring back school house rock, for Trump and his cult.

Trump IS losing the war and Iran knows that already. It's the American people who are being lied to by the Trump Administration.

Are you saying that the press should LIE to the American people and tell them you're winning????

Lying to the American people is giving "aid and comfort" to the enemy because it's proof positive that Trump knows he's losing and is trying to cover it up.

Yes, SweetTea, the Stock Market means nothing to the working man and woman on Main Street.



They are hurting and blame Trump and the GOP.



Affordability!

That is what some may think, but that doesn't make it true. The Democratic Party preys on the least informed...always has. They have successfully sewn the seed that the "rich" people who have money on the market are nothing but blood suckers that don't have a positive effect on the overall economy. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Nope, I am just aware that wealthy people create jobs. The mote they make in the market, the more they invest in business.

I have no trouble with the making of wealth. I have done very well. I do believe we need a strong social security net.

We have a strong net, in fact so strong that it creates dependency and stimies ambition. Taxing those that do have that ambition back to the middle class only creates more idleness and more dependency. ~50% of the country pays no federal income tax. That is nuts.

No, we don't have a strong enough net. I knew a woman with two sons who made her way from living in married housing to graduation with her Ph.d. in 9 years and supported the family. Never married.

Your accomplishments are nothing compared to hers.

We need more assistance like that.

You have no idea what my accomplishments are or where I started. That being daid, my wife's story puts that one to shame. She had ZERO help.

They will vote their pocket book. And of the remainder who are in the market, many of them are small investors.

This does not look good for MAGA at all.

They will but don’t expect their financial status to take an earth shattering turn under Democrats. People have two choices. The gray area is gone if you are not in the top 1%. If you’re not prioritizing the accumulation of wealth, that’s on you if you retired broke or barely getting by. I don’t expect both parties to look after my financial status when both parties are only looking after their own.

Once upon a time we did have those great things. Housing was affordable. Median wage was a livable wage. Services and goods were affordable. Raising a family was a joy instead of a struggle. Social security, no one bat an eye about the future of the program. All that started to fall and never recovered because of the global economy which Americans got the short end. We can’t reverse any of it.

Sure, she did. I won't play games with your type.

If they don't work hard, save, and invest, you are right.

Those who are in the lower 50% will be a happy with a clean house and living conditions, a nice care, plenty of food, and a lots loss worry than that with which Trump gifts them.

Not a game. Just a fact. Sorry it doesnt fit your narrative.

Roughly 1 in 3 working Americans — about 33% — are not invested in the stock market.​

That’s tens of millions of workers.

So the vast majority are
