Reporting minute to minute on how the stock market does shows you how stupidly out of it Libby's are. Everybody and I mean everybody says you should never ever look at the stock market in anything less than one year intervals, and 5-year intervals is even better. Because what it does week to week or even month to month is absolutely meaningless. Only a child with no understanding would think it means something day to day. But Libby's do it hour to hour and even minute to minute and think it's relevant. Embarrassing.

It's exactly like having a small child and measuring his height several times a day and wringing your hands over the fact that he doesn't seem to be growing. Lol


Have to watch it day to day, because the White House has turned into a clown car.

Tell that to all the poor bastards who lost everything in the Great Crash of 1929.

The market has been in absolute turmoil since the oaf started all this tariff nonsense: a swing of about 1500 points today.

Pretty much all experts say it is idiotic, dangerous and foolhardy to do what he's doing: history will be the judge.


Nations are lining up to negotiate away their tariffs.

The TDS crowd will be on the wrong side of history....AGAIN!

We do know the TDS crowd has been on the wrong side of history on almost everything about him so you should not hold out hope.

The left thinks it is better to be liked than feared.

Just saw a guy on YouTube who's 30 years old and is crying his eyes out because in the last month he's lost $80,000 in his retirement portfolio because of the stock market. He's whining and crying and screaming at his investment person. He's 30, his retirement is decades away and he's absolutely pitching a fit? He's too young to remember 2008, lol. He was a teenager and had no skin in the game. The stock market is gambling always has been and it's not for the faint at heart. He's acting like he's close to suicide.

The market is up 2500 points right now not because Trump is pausing some of the tariffs, it's up because they had a 40 billion dollar Bond auction today and 80% of it was bought by the foreign market. All the doom and gloomers were predicting that they would all stay away from American assets and instead they gobbled them up like greedy little pricks they are. This is why the stock market is up, duh.

Trump Blinked.

Some "tough guy."

While I'm glad to see the market bounce back I am even gladder to see the oaf grovel in shame, his tariff plan backfiring in his flim-flam face.

Lol you have no understanding of how Trump operates at all. He's master of the art of the deal, everything is layers inside layers inside layers and he always knows what's going on. I heard a story from years ago when he was selling the Ritz hotel to the Japanese and he sold it to them without ever once mentioning the Ritz hotel. In the negotiation he sold them on New York City and where it was going and what it could be. They not only bought the Ritz they bought a whole bunch of other things. Your problem is like most Libby's you judge Trump on your own weakness, you figure he's just as weak and dumb as you are. Not hardly.

Or China? China is flailing around like a beached dolphin. Their economy is failing, their currency is almost worthless, they are totally dependent on other countries to keep their economy going but they like to act like they're not. Like I heard somebody say today China has some very smart economists who know exactly what's going on but their leaders won't listen to them.
