U.S. stocks were slammed for a third day on Monday as the White House remained defiant even after President Donald Trump’s rollout of shockingly high tariff rates on most key U.S. trading partners has caused a market meltdown.
“Can you believe these stock gurus are so woke? They are trying to make the markets identify as a bear. By Executive Order, I hereby designate that the US stock market is an eagle, forever soaring! Anyone who says the market is down will be shipped to El Salvador”
Americans eagle sound weak… https://youtu.be/DeDcBQdAxnc
Welcome to orange Monday, a new day of worsts early in the trumpcession
Doesn’t even make the top 5 worst stock days unfortunately.
I’ve seen a few talking heads today desperately trotting out the “investing is a long term strategy” line and telling people not to sell or pull their money from their portfolios.
The statement is somewhat correct, but all they are after here is for a shmuck to hold the bag for them while the big players pull their tricks.
Trump right now “Trust me, I know what I’m doing! Things will get better soon it will be worth it! I promise!”.
Says the compulsive liar who bankrupted 4 casinos, repeatedly stiffs his business partners and only began making real money in corruption schemes.
by better, he means bankrupt.
Republican tariff market collapse.
When circuit breakers ?
And Trump is doubling down on the tariffs. Looks like it’s gonna be a fun year.
It’s a shame we don’t have a competent left in the US. This is an opportunity.
As Republican voters have been turned into easily deluded suckers unable to think critically or act in their own interests, now would be the perfect time to capitalize on that and turn them against the core rot of our society: unrestrained capitalism. That’s why we have Trump to begin with.
“Look, the capital markets are anti MAGA! The capital markets must be destroyed, if you disagree you have Trump derangement syndrome! Capitalism is revealed as a woke leftist plot to discredit GodEmperorDaddyTrump!”
The capitalists defunded education for decades to cut their own taxes despite profiting from a literate workforce pool, and pushed profit friendly lies through for profit media and captured government pulpits. The capitalists made this drooling army of rage zombies that is the Republican base. They don’t know which way is up. They might not be doing it for the right reasons, but this is a magic moment where the monsters could be given a nudge to turn on their oligarch creators.
Today is shaking up to be volatile as fuck. Now it’s up 200.
Edit: looks like the story has also been updated to say things are positive.
Edit 2: and now down a shitload again. Yup, volatile as fuck.
It just went back down $200. This spike lasted 15 minutes.
Pump and dump baby!
No it’s down again.
Yeah, that was my point. It’s volatile AF. Erratic swings up and down by thousands is not a healthy sign.
I was about to say the dow looks like a falling knife, but checking in on it after opening, it looks like it’s having a seizure.
