OP is certainly not a Dem. He's old school.
He and I battled Dems (when we had some on here) on here in the past in economic discussions.

Reverse the images, replace Dems with Republicans/Trumpers, and you’d be describing the current situation.

Posts a graph covering a full year versus two days and thinks he has a gotcha.

Is the author of that article the same one that said ice caps will all be melted in 5 years? It’s amazing how many “experts” there are out there that warn us of every move Trump makes.

I am not, nor have I ever been a Democrat, brother. I know you aren’t either. But hook, line, and sinker behind everything any politician is doing is a level of surrendering independent thought that I will never do.

Did you just completely fabricate a fact and use it to support some preconceived notion in your own mind?

"Vaporizing"
That sounds permanent. Because stock prices never ever ever go back up.

quote:First off recession is not """likely""".
In order to avoid likely recession, the US is going to rely on the consumer to buy us out of it while paying higher prices and having less buying power.
It is a certain possibility, but not yet a probability.
Second, Trump is in a race to get interest rates down d/t short sighted financing policies of the previous Admin. Otherwise we'll be unnecessarily hemorrhaging taxpayer money just to pay lenders.
Powell has not yet signaled any willingness to cooperate with rate lowering. But lower rates are critical from a budgetary standpoint. So Trump is doing what he can to knock the socks off of inflation to push the Fed. All that comes atop a market that was overheated for most of 2024. Meanwhile, the market conniptions are in response to fractional cost increases (tariffs) involving 11% ($3.3T) of our economy.
Logically, the selloff was overdone at half our total decline. However, the market was "priced to perfection," so it was looking for a pullback excuse. We could be near a bottom, though with the amount of investor "fear" present, we'll need a more obvious capitulation.
Addressing retail investor rationality in all of this, the stock market is the only market where when things go on sale, buyers run away screaming for the exits.

well i did it for 21 years so i must have been pretty good at it!
a recession as you know is defined as two consecutive quarters of negative growth we're not even close. secondly you have to ask yourself did our current economy justify record highs on the dow and s&p? my answer to that would have been no, so you look at this as a correction. anyone with even an ounce of common sense, which excludes you, sees this for what it is a welcomed buying opportunity.

Can you critically think at all?
Why do companies hire additional workers?
It’s NOT because they anticipate a recession

The stock market is not the economy. End of discussion
The stock market runs ahead of the economy. The actual economy will feel these effects in the coming months unless something drastically changes on the tariff and government spending front. This is like a tsunami where the water gets sucked back out to sea and people are picking up seashells on the beach like idiots.

Right, because those hires that were in that report happened after Trump announced these tariffs on Wednesday.

Or they do anticipate a recession and are trying to get as much product out before then as possible.

We were told the last 4 years the president doesn’t control the economy.
