A lot of profit taking occurring in AH trading at the moment.

May 16 (Reuters) - Moody's on Friday downgraded its credit rating of the United States by a notch to "Aa1" from "Aaa", citing rising debt and interest "that are significantly higher than similarly rated sovereigns."

The retirees and near retirees that post on this board need to grasp how damaging their opposition to entitlement reform is.
You can argue till you are blue in the face that our debt is surging due to “tax cuts” or “waste and abuse” or whatever, but it’s flat out wrong.
It’s the entitlements. It’s ss, it’s Medicare, it’s Medicaid.
Bottom line: people on ss and Medicare are getting far more out of the program than they paid in.
It needs to be reformed.

Yet more proof investors are dumb
The data Moody’s relies on is public data. Why were investors not already pricing in the numbers?

Then round us up and send us to camps - no need to re-educate as we already graduated and are gonna die off soon enough
Fwiw--doubt any of us crafted much less passed these measures....your aim leaves something to be desired
P.S. and may have gotten more had we not been forced into the system that you blame us for

Moodys is a fricking sham as is the entire credit system.
Burn it down and start over according to true free market principles.

I would have agreed with you before the DOGE light was shined into where our tax dollars have been going.
1. Return non mandatory spending to 2019 levels and let them sort out how they want to spend it.
2. Purge SS, Disability and Medicaid of anyone that doesn’t deserve it. I think we can be fairly certain this was expanded bigly over the last 4 years and people have been added that don’t need it enmasse.
Do these before you start talking about cutting benefits for programs were all paying into. Until then F them. The fact that the whole world has been mooching off my work product has not left me in a giving mood.

Moody’s isn’t even the first to downgrade the US this year. I imagine this was low volume shite from retail

You have no chance of getting re-elected if you aren't buying votes with government largess.
