re: China announced 34% retaliatory tariff in the US; Dow falls 1000 points, S&P down 2.7%,

That feels like quite the stretch. The analysis is sound. Countries like China are more willing to ride out economic hardship for the perceived greater good than a diverse population would do.
Or maybe it's the lack of elections?
Or are you forgetting that the US is quite literally the most prosperous country in the world, lack of homogeneity and all?

What does this have to do with anything?

China is shooting itself in its foot. American manufacturing in China is already fleeing to other cheaper labor markets like Vietnam. Vietnam just dropped all of their tariffs on American goods.

This is true, and all the more reason this should give us pause.

Japan still hasn’t apologized for the rape of Nanking, but China is ready to work with Japan against U.S. tariff policy.
That should demonstrate what a colossal geopolitical frick up this has become.

We have people here who have no interest in learning our language or assimilating into our culture or anything else for that matter. Heck, many of them dislike this country and the things it represents and want to 'change' it. They aren't going to support or even care about the things being discussed in this thread which is what the commentator was discussing. China, Japan, and South Korea do not have that problem. You have to be one of the stupidest motherfrickers on here. We don't need 'more' illegal immigrants. We'd save Billions by deporting every single one.

I'd expect the bottom to be around 4000 for the S&P. If it goes any lower than that, there's big problems

Honestly, the S&P should be trading around 5130 based on historical averages. It's not like we're in some rocket ship economic conditions or anything. I realize bull markets can go much higher, but things usually revert to the mean eventually.
Well, I didn't think we'd get there today
Screw it - I bought when we dipped down below here.

Which direction are we trending? We are 37 TRILLION dollars in debt
So your position is we need more 'diversity' to start chipping away at that insane debt?

They’re willing? What choice do they have?

I think a bigger factor is their willingness to pump money into their economy.
