Yes we all know traders are the most paranoid people on planet Earth. So of course, they are panicking based on unproven assumptions of what might happen. That’s what they do best. So we’re hearing talk of “fears of a recession.” What these nitwits don’t understand is that if there is a recession, it will be entirely driven by their emotions. With all the stupid panic selling, there’s no doubt some great bargains out there. Buy low, sell high. Buy away!

Good idea. In a day or two the freak out will end.
Over the last four years I was told repeatedly a recession was/is Bidens fault. Now a recession is no longer the fault of a president (until the next dem presdency)

Democrat talking points are all about some market crash. Party before country. My stocks are doing fine, but I never trail after the hottest new trend.
Also, I always keep about half of my investments in stocks.

Incorrect. They have always been prone to panic. That’s why we don’t have traders leading infantry platoons. At the first shot the command would be: RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!
1979 was driven by the Arab fuel embargo.
My prediction: at some point the stock market will go down. Later on, it will reverse itself.

“The stock market is comprised of millions of people who are simultaneously trading. The market indexes are a distillation of sentiment,” Paul posted Monday on the social platform X. “When the markets tumble like this in response to tariffs, it pays to listen.”
Sure, economic conditions which made people feel emotions that lead to a recession.
Not as long as the President insists on being a Chaos Agent.
It’s the whiplash and uncertainty that’s causing the problems moreso than the actual steps being taken.
Wanna make a case that we need to be more protectionist to bring high paying manufacturing jobs back to the US? Then make the plan and stick to it…Trump should stop feeling the impulsive need to have the last word in every debate on this score.
Do you believe long term we have to uncouple economic growth from government spending?
Then show your spending cuts are actually a planned means to that end, as opposed to an out of control chainsaw and then a regrafting of certain spends depending on whether it’s a GOP legislator or Dem legislator that calls you.
It’s the uncertainty, not the actions.

It would be a stupid time to sell.
Trump has been in office a month and a half.
Are you actually trying to blame Trump?
