Trump approval plummets to levels seen in midterm wipeout

[martybegan]

First you said you pay people to do it for you, then you say you don’t pay them anything.

Are you lying or are you clueless?

Dude, are you fucking dense?

Someone gets paid to manage the funds my 401k invests in. I don't pay anything ADDITIONAL, you fuck.

Then what the fuck did you mean here?

I pay for people to do things for me. And I am well ahead of the earning curve at my age.

You don’t know what is going on.

You don’t know what is going on.

I don't buy stocks myself, dipshit. I use my 401k contributions to buy managed funds.

Of course there has to be someone paid to manage those funds.

Actively managed funds are a joke. They cost a lot and don’t perform better than index funds. Does someone tell you what to buy?

I buy the funds I want to. Then I let the people running the funds do what they are paid to do.

I'm at over $1M in my 401k at age 50. Well ahead of the curve.

Takes a long time to source transport and build widgets cost effectively. I could do it in weeks not months for 5X's the cost.

Years actually.

not sure what you mean by being ahead of the curve but knowing your expenses ratios for your funds is really important.

I am projected to have enough in the funds to pay for my retirement.

Says the boards resident moron. LOL

Not sure your projections took into account Trump’s fucking up the market, but okay.

You have no idea how much better you could be doing, and don’t care. It just makes you one of the many suckers out there.

5-7% growth is totally realistic, unless you're also expecting 4-7% dividend returns over the long term. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Obviously, you don't know what your talking about. Yes, I can have my cake and eat it too.

The 4-7% I receive in dividends is based on where I entered the stock market with a stock at that price.
The stock has increased in price and the dividend has decreased because of the increase in the stock price.
But, the dividend payout is even more with the increase in dividends through the years.

Newsweek is “rightwing”?


LOL you people are nuts.

You dont read. Much less read Newsweek. Otherwise you would have not hit reply.

Newsweek Embraces the Anti-Democracy Hard Right

Newsweek positioned political activist Josh Hammer to run their opinion pages during the runup to the 2020 presidential election, and since that time, the publication has taken a marked radical right turn by buoying extremists and promoting authoritarian leaders.

How Newsweek Has Gone Down the Far-Right Rabbit Hole

The once-esteemed magazine has been reduced to a soapbox for the far right, a new study reveals, thanks to a MAGA activist running the opinions page.

The New Republic: “Newsweek” Has Turned into “A Zombie Magazine”

Alex Shephard writes in the latest issue of The New Republic that something odd has happened to Newsweek. It has become an outlet for rightwing advocacy. The Newsweek story has been covered by many…

Rightwing organization, Newsweek, is reporting that Trump's approval has plummeted to the levels that saw the republicans wiped out in 2018. Cites the vastly unpopular tariffs and sky high recession fears.

Looks like Trump will only have another year and a half to totally trash this place.

Donald Trump's strong disapproval rating surges

Trump's approval rating has taken a notable hit, with disapproval numbers now mirroring levels seen during the 2018 midterm elections.

www.newsweek.com

According to pollster Harry Enten, Trump's disapproval rating is currently at a similar level to November 2018, when the Republicans lost the House in the midterms and the Democrats gained 41 seats. At the time, 42 percent disapproved of Trump's job performance, according to Enten's analysis.

Now, that number stands at 43 percent. According to Enten, that could be a bad sign for Trump, who is still more than a year away from the next round of midterm elections.

According to CNN…….

Oh stop it.
He doesn't watch the day to day in the 401K's. He said he looks at the quarterly's.
Which is what he should be doing. It gives you the trend of the market and not the volatility of the day to day.

Got any more hard left sources you want to share?

Jesus, man. You’re just all over the map. When people talk about dividend yields, they’re talking about percent yield on the current price. High dividend stocks notoriously have bad growth. Ford hadn’t really gone up in value in decades.

I’ll never understand people obsessed with dividends. Maybe your post sounded like it made sense in your head but it’s gibberish.

The dividend decreased but it also increased? Try using more precise language.

Dow is up around 2% right now, but plenty of trading day left.

Did you open yesterdays CNN page?

That "2% up right now" was 2000 points lower than the last datapoint in your graph, which was a bit above 40600.

Current difference is 38200-40600 = -2400

He doesn’t even know what his expense ratios are. Not saying he should be checking the balance daily, but he should know what the fuck he’s investing in and what he’s paying for it.

Dividends = income.
Serious income

Dividend percentage decreases when the stock price increases.
Most of my stocks dividends increase usually every year, year and a half.
Dividends are more important to me than a stock increasing in price.
I don't need any more capital increase, I just need the dividends

Not all over the map, just discussing with someone who's inept.

As long as he isn't getting hosed, he's good to go.
His priorities are different than your priorities.
Stop with the dogging, makes you look like a clown.
