They see the writing on the wall that another Great Depression is looming and don’t want to be holding worthless paper.

Long term outlook is still bearish. Manufacturing data did no favors this week. Housing sentiment is doing a complete reversal. inverted Bond yield curve has a one man band with a flashing light on his head marching back and forth warning about deeper recession. The inverted yield curve is as deep as it’s been since the 2000’s.

Walmart just reported a buildup of inventory (slower sales).

Oil is dropping on weaker demand. (People staying home)

And it goes on and on.

Which is why many conservatives that don’t give a frick about mean tweets question DT in ‘24.

Governors championed the effort to crater the economy, but DT funded it.

So he sold at the bottom. SP500 up 17% since mid June.

"Historically, since 1950 whenever the S&P 500 has rallied at least 15% in a 40-day period, average returns were quite strong moving forward. Six month returns were north of 10%, while one-year returns were better than 20%."

So what of the other Thread that said they were hurrying up the coming Digital Currency which will make cash obsolete? I guess by 'cash' you mean liquidity/assets in whatever form?

The 'big guys' will always be ahead of the curve. It's the working stiffs that get whacked.

Look at a DJIA chart prior to 2008. Look at a DJIA chart post 2008.


That exponential increase post 2008 is the Federal Reserve and their shenanigans. It's unsustainable and will come crashing back IMO. They can't artificially inflate the market forever.

Name one candidate for 24’ that didn’t initially go all in for closing down. State or federal level.

Congress was dead set on it. Media had their usual fear mongering full speed ahead.

Hell the Dem candidates were yelling “racist, homophobic, xenophobic, hates immigrants!!!” When he started restricting flights. Including the current dementia patient in the WH. They did a complete about face and went full on dictatorial.

Sold because he thought it would go lower and will buy back in at his perceived bottom.
