over China.

I know all you guys with $25,000 401k’s don’t give a damn, but the rest of us who have spent decades building real wealth are going to take a massive hit. Many of us voted for Trump because he was going to be “pro-business.” Now he’s telling U.S. companies where they can and cannot manufacture product? Insane.

And if you think Trump will survive a market crash 1 year before re-election, you’re nuttier than the kooks on the left.

if the market crashes over twitter words, we are in deep shite my friend. Fundamentals drive the market and they look pretty good.

Given I'm about 25 years or so away from retirement I look at this as a buying opportunity. Market is too damn high anyway. It needs to come down so deals can be had. I do however think his comment of ordering US companies to leave China is ridiculous. They will just throw up a middle finger up to him if he thinks he can tell them how they should run their businesses.

When did you start investing in the market? If you started investing a month ago, you’d be losing. But if you have bene investing for a few years at least, then you have made out ahead.

You guys realize the market RIGHT NOW is at where it was in June of this year?

If you don’t plan on getting out anytime soon, why care about short term fluctuations?

Stop being a pussy.

Trump is going to make you money like never before.

Chinese can't win and your "real wealth" will recover.

Again, stop being a pussy.

If youve spent decades creating that wealth you should have shifted a good chunk of it into bonds by now to protect yourself

Quit listening to CNN's "Trump is crashing the market" doom and gloom takes.

The stock market is still up 30% in less than 3 years since Trump was elected.

And lets remember where the market was on election day 2016. It is not going to be pretty, but someone has to start standing up to China and looking out of the interests of the US and its people. The alternative is to allow China to continue abusing us, which will lead to even worse consequences down the road.

Trump may not be very delicate. Hell, he may not even be using the best strategies. But he at least understands the problem and is standing up for the US.

Guess you should've elected better presidents in your youth then. frick off with your "wait until I retire to make any changes so that I don't have to face any consequences."

Trump is fixing the economy and trade practices your generation built. Sorry you have to reap what you sowed.

Or move it to more conservative investments. If the ride is too wild for you, that's what I would do.

As for me, I just wait for Trump to say or do something to impact the market and once it negatively responds, I dump some money in

Well I guess you should sell Huckleberry!

If you are this sure, if you don’t sell and the market crashes, it’s your fault!

Personally, I’m in!

What a snowflake!
But if I were a ceo or one “who have spent decades building real wealth“, I’d take this strong advice as the ultimate “insider trading advice”!

Boomers like you in their service to mammon don’t care about what world they leave their children and grandchildren as long as there is peace, RV’s, casinos, vacation homes, cruises, and SSRI’s/benzos/opioids meds in their own day. A fitting fate that you will waste away in a nursing home neglected by uncaring people for selling us down the river to commies. Enjoy your wealth. You’ll take none of it with you.
