I'm sure all the laid off O&G workers are delighted that the gas they produce is now slightly cheaper than last week. Thank you Mr. Trump sir.

On the plus side, at least we’ll probably get a third “DOW hits 20,000!!” Tweet from Trump.

What are your symptoms?

normal cold, mostly. more coughing/wheezing, less mucous pouring out of my face than i'm used to.

Hope you’re feeling better today. Chunk some more money into the market. Holy ballz.

Just remembered when Trump tweeted about everyone's retirement accounts going up 70, 80, 90% AND MORE!!!!!! What an absolute dumbfuck.

I think one of the president's most important jobs is to be a cheerleader for the economy. So I'm not sure what you're upset about, or why you blame the current market volatility on the trumpster. Or maybe you're just kidding. Dunno.

I'm just enjoying the ride and feeling glad I suspended all my elective non-retirement investing last year to focus on paying down my mortgage instead. Now I'm shoveling cash into the market at 20% off. I love still being young enough that when the market tanks all I see is investment and refi opportunity.

He wasn't trying to be a cheerleader or encourage anything, he was puffing his chest out about how much the market and people's retirement accounts were up. Lol at him not contributing to volatility either.

MAGAs will rush to the defense of the most outlandish crap

So you see it as a good thing that you missed out on 25+% gains to pay off a 4-5% mortgage, or you mean you did it right at the end of the year?

Turns out I didn't miss out on those gains after all, which have now disappeared. And now I'm lower in debt AND buying back into a market on sale.

There are two things being talked about it right now. First is investors are selling to cover their losses in the stock market. The second is there was another large scam and they are unloading it on the markets.

The halving is in 2 months. World banks are going to start printing massive amounts of money for bailout packages, massive inflation of unbacked currency. Bitcoin is having a massive deflationary event while this is happening. I’m buying every last bitcoin I can right now at discount prices.
