Financial websites believe it's because of Trump's latest tariff threats against Europe over Greenland.

Oh, well, another buying opportunity...

Japanese yen unwinding again, 10 yr treasury climbing, Trump Tariffs, Alien announcement imminent.

And markets will probably finish green tomorrow

Wow! 0.8% huh? Damn that Trump. We’ll never financially recover from this.

The banks have been under pressure a bit and maybe the rest of the market is infected.

The economy seems to be doing okay but
We’ve had some wierd financial news from Trump lately:

No institutional ownership of housing! Oil at $50 a barrel! Credit card rates will be capped at 10%! Swipe fees are too high! 

They’re not all explicit policy moves, but Trump's rhetoric could be causing some angst.

I remember when we did this last year.

We all made money buying the dip, so let us welcome LSURussian and his fear porn.

NASDAQ is the only one down over 1%. Not much of a true dip is it?

These Trump trade wars usually CRIPPLE the us economy for about a day or two.

And then we have to endure three months of prosperity.

So 90 days positive
& 2 negative.



The media with run with that.

I've already made money "buying the dip" this morning... a little over a thousand dollars on a quick flip.

That's why I said in my OP it's another buying opportunity.

Of course, the paranoid Trump cultists immediately started screaming that my thread is an anti-Trump thread. It's not.

It was intended to be a heads up to get out your dry powder and load the cannon....

The NASDAQ, DJI & SPX were all down between 1.5% and 2% minutes after trading started.

That's a terrific buying dip for flipping ETFs on those averages, which I did.

Is an intraday decline of -2.4% a "true dip"?
