Further proof why US get taken advantage of. Imaginary money temporarily dropped with the goal of thinking long term. Then over half the country was ready to learn Mandarin

It was obvious. Only question was the time frame.

Someone was going to blink, whether it's China, or other countries that want to screw China and get a better deal for themselves, or companies moving back to the US.

A lot of valuations are stretched as is the overall market CAPE ratio so there could still be a good bit of downside.

One way or the other, with Trump in charge heightened volatility will probably continue to be the norm.

It was funny how quickly progressives started caring about the stock market after not giving a shite for 4 years (I thought big business was evil?) and claiming that Trump was going to "destroy the economy"

I'm printing shirts..."I survived the economic destruction and stock market crash of 2025".

Who wants one?

If you freak out over a couple of months of downturn, you are almost guaranteed to miss out on great years. We had similar corrections in 2024 and 2023, but I don’t recall many folks thinking it was the end of the world.

There were posters on the PT board last month saying wrecking that economy was intentional and necessary. And yea, they were being serious

A strong dollar is bad for trade and the U.S. economy. It makes exports more expensive and causes other nations to hoard dollars showing false GDP growth. It’s why China doesnt want the yuan to be the global currency so they are able to manipulate and have more of an advantage in their own markets.


Also sinking a fake propped up economy allows interest rate cuts and price decreases.

It was 41,794 the day before election day. Then unrealistically it inflated for a few months with optimism. So now we're back to where we were 6 months ago, having gone through some of the WORST losses ever, with hopefully better policies in place moving forward. I call it a win.

I told anyone that would listen to buy and not sell.

That’s because those corrections don’t fit the political narrative of the leftist media. They’re not in the news business. They’re in the narrative business. They serve the same function for the Democrat Party as Pravda did for the Communist Party in the Soviet Union.
