The coronavirus is already going to have a huge impact on the market as the disruption of products from China works it's way through the supply chain.

Hopefully Trump is taking precautions to insulate from this. Whatever he can do to increase economic incentives.

I've felt this way since the mid terms. They will do whatever it takes to get him out of office and the best way to do it is to have the stock market take a big shite a few months before the election so the libtard candidate can put fear and doubt in the less educated voters minds about the economy.

I still think he can overcome it though if he keeps his cool because the likely demotard candidate is going to be a complete joke if it comes from the current pool mental midgets vying for the nomination.

It’s a possibility, would probably take the Fed/Global Banking Cabal to pull it off. I think if there’s an attempt to do this dirty deed one indication of the ploy is the price of gold. Gold prices have been rising with the equities market. Typically you see a divergent chart when comparing the equities market to gold. There’s been a shite load of gold purchased over the past 5-6 years by banks and foreign countries......someone’s hedging.

If the market goes down, it will be because of folks getting scared of a Bernie presidency

Absolutely.

Without an economic pull back, Trump has no chance of losing.

They know this.

happens as regular as the sun rising they sell off stocks just before the election to crash the market as others get scared and sell while the prices are dropping.

you could even make good money betting the indexes short term swing

4th rate cut in a "booming" economy. If it happens, it's because we're emulating Chinese market manipulation.

Who are these mysterious "powers that be" capable of "causing a market crash/correction right before the 2020 election?"

I mean they must be fairly damn powerful to control all the various key indicators right down to the week/day.

You think you're the only one who has thought of this? I guarantee 80% of this board has been concerned about this since midterms.

Doubtful. If the anti-Trump “They” could tank the market, they clearly would have when the Left was trying to tell us a recession was imminent last year.

But they couldn’t do it then, in spite of clearly trying their best, so why would they suddenly be able to do it now?

We’re still above 29,000 and having typical volatility in the midst of a potential global pandemic. Some companies are getting hammered as a result of quarantines and entire cities being shutoff, and we’re still having just as many up days as down days, and all economic indicators are still trending up.

The Coronavirus can cause concern, but it can’t cause companies who are making money to stop paying dividends and hiring people and making more money.

The only way the market tanks is if we have a nuclear event somewhere of importance. A dirty bomb or a meltdown that ruins or logjams an economic sector or three.

Aside from that, there’s nothing physically in the way to prevent economic growth. People have jobs and more money. People are spending that money. Companies are making profits and hiring more people. Etc etc. And there’s nothing imminent that’s disrupting that cycle.

On top of this, trade deals have only just started kicking in and working, and we haven’t come close to actualizing those benefits yet, even. And, more companies are moving to/moving back to the US. Hell, the Coronavirus might actually help expedite corporate inversions TO the US.

Immigration is still improving and more and more low skilled full time jobs are coming available for out of work citizens. The labor participation rate continues to rise while jobless claims and unemployment stay steadily low.

Regulations are still getting cut, and off-shore money is still being repatriated.

“They” can’t do anything to stop this. “They” already tried and failed. And have you been watching all their other failings?? Russiagate, Mueller, Ukrainegate, Impeachment, Recessiongate, the clowns they have as candidates....

“They” are incompetent boobs who can’t rig a fricking Iowa primary right, for Christ’s sake.

“They” sure as shite can’t cause a market collapse either.

The spread of the coronavirus could portend a stock market dip, according to a Goldman Sachs analysis.

The stock market has continued to reach new highs despite the spread of the deadly virus, but that trend may not continue, warns Goldman Sachs analyst Peter Oppenheimer said.

In the near term "we believe the greater risk is that the impact of the coronavirus on earnings may well be underestimated in current stock prices, suggesting that the risks of a correction are high," he wrote in the analysis released Wednesday.

Oppenheimer said traders were following the playbook for the 2003 SARS outbreak, which came and went without much ado. This time around, however, China's economy is six times larger than it was when SARS broke out, meaning the drop of its growth projections from 5.9 percent to 5.5 percent will have a more significant global effect.

The lib left won't endanger their own money, profits, or stock. Not even for TDS.

The one counter-scenario would be Bernie as the Dem nominee staying close enough in the polls to spook the markets.

Do y’all think there is some castle somewhere where Druidic figures secretly control everything? Markets don’t work like that.
