The stock market

Like the tanking continuing today?? Think it's bottomed?

I think we may still have some downside to go.

Just a friendly reminder and the reason the last post was deleted that was the warning shot

You sound like a school girl
man up

so the Market isn't crashing? Do you live in a alternate universe?

Or are you on really good drugs? If that's the case - I want some of whatever you're doing....
:rolleyes:

depends on your definition of "crash"..
here is some context
I'd say taking the froth out of the system from all time highs

Just using words to fit his narrative. Useless.

Come on Wader, you’re living in the past
Its no longer OK to blame every single problem in the world on one guy
Thats so 2021 to 2025!!!!!!
I know its a long time ago but during that time EVERYTHING was one guys doing and fault
Now? Pffffftttt
That all changed. Everything now is gods will and naturally happens for a reason all on its own 👍👍👍

Had a nice little rally today. CPI came in lower than expectations. PPI tomorrow. Making progress on Russia / Ukraine Peace agreement.
It's a transition phase from big .gov and regulation, to downsizing / rightsizing the excess in the system. Market will have to digest that transformation. As well as Tariffs, threat of Tariffs etc.

So, if, you're a long-term investor, you shouldn't care what the market does day to day. If you are a trader, then that is a different story, and you have to be nimble.

VIX option expire next week, and Quarterly Options expire 3/21, Month end rebalancing 3/30 ish for large pensions and funds, Tarriff decision 4/2 on Mex/Can...so strap in for a bumpy wild ride.

If you're retired & counting on your account to help support you - you are concerned on what the Market does day to day. There are a lot of us who do.
Yes.
I have other income streams but this is one that is the bedrock.

Older Folk don't have the benefit of being cavelier about what the Market is doing day to day.

Alot of us with no traditional pension or retirement benefits are 100% dependent on the combination of 401k’s that are subject to the market and social security to retire on. To us the stock market is not a casual or fun way to gamble and have the thrill of winning a few bets and making some extra side cash
Right now, both are on shaky ground and causing legitimate concern and anxiety about plans to retire

Interest true fact...

Maybe older folks who didn't plan appropriately and were cavalier with their portfolios. If they were astute investors, they would have dumped critical high-risk investments prior to retirement. This way they can say "Oh shit, oh dear the market is tanking again. Think I'll have another cup of coffee..."

After this correction sorts itself out, I may throw a little Fun Money into the market. Its success or failure would have no impact on the rotational velocity of the earth...

Beat me to it. If it's retirement money the majority of it should have been pulled into more stable, income producing positions long ago.

Markets are speculative and reactionary. They often reflect the economy, but they are not the economy. It's the same mistake people make when they say the president doesn't control the price of gas. It's not direct control, but policy can certainly influence it.
