LOL! The market dropped back LESS than 1/4 from the gain over Trump's FANTASTIC 1st year!!! ![]() 4 steps up and 1 step back is pretty darn good!!!

it was humorous after Monday watching the leftist hordes on twitter celebrating with glee the potential crash while blaming Trump. ...then it bounced back and now they're sad again. ![]() |

Yeah that's right-Trump is responsible for the market gains but Obama is responsible for the big sell off according to Hanity. Wrong on both accounts. Anyone who thinks a President at any particular time is responsible for stock market moves needs to go back and break out the introduction to economics text. For all of you that think the Mango Haired Monster should be given credit for the Dow-how come almost all of the foreign markets outperformed the US market in 2017? Is trump that influential that he made all the economies recover this year? or maybe it was positive growth in all markets around the globe for the first time in a many years. I think I will go with the later.

I think the Monday stock massacre had a lot to do with programed trading. The big boys on the street have some of the most powerful computers in private hands programed to make trades in fractions of a second. If they all managed to get together they could take the Dow to the bottom (within trading limits) or make it hit the roof. Sea Story:Back in the day I worked at a design firm in NYC working on nuclear power plants-we couldn't run any stress analysis after 3PM as the company had leased the computer space to the wall street firms for their money float transactions and their overseas trading. My company made more $$$ doing that then doing engineering work. If that was 30 years ago can you imagine what they can do today? Can you imagine if the Ruusskis hacked those machines? |
