Some lib loser on CNN just said the stock market is down 200 points today because of Trump

Oh well, it's still at all times highs since he took office so they can eat a bag of dicks

Idiot it's down because a Muslim drove a van through a crowd in Barcelona and killed 13 people.

You don't follow the markets very closely, do you. "Ordinary" terrorist attacks don't faze it that much these days. If you had to pin today's 274 point drop in the DJIA on one single thing, it would be worry that Gary Cohn may join the CEOs and bail due to @real's nonsense, and that might be the start of other good people leaving to avoid his growing stench tainting them forever.

The Dow is at record levels because of Trump, but it's down today because of rumors that Gary Kohn might resign from his role of economic advisor. The attack only had a small effect comparatively.

I don't think that's correct either. Markets seem to be immune to terrorist attacks nowadays.

So I think both you and the CNN commentator are picking a singular cause, when it rarely exists, unless it's completely market related.

Besides this article is actually arguing both, along with the more market related cause from Cisco's earnings report:

Stock market closes sharply lower as tech shares wither

U.S. stock benchmarks on Thursday finished down at least 1% as heightened concerns about President Donald Trump’s legislative agenda and news of a terrorist attack in Barcelona combined to foster selling on Wall Street. Technology shares suffered the worst of the beating following disappointing results from Cisco Systems.

Actually it has nothing to do with either.
