What context? Do you understand how stupid you sound right now?

That’s like me bringing up DUI deaths in this thread. It has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that this threat is real and the leadership from the trump administration is trash. It does literally no good to anyone.

Absolutely stupid to bring anything like that up, yet here you are.....

Cool. And trump had and has nothing to do with cod19. Yet many on here insist he did. But, you carry on with your anti trump vitriol, it will serve you well.

I don’t know what you’re talking about. Nobody is blaming trump for the virus, only how he handles it.

Your false narratives will never change that. But continue on your oblivious drivel.

As of Friday, my very experienced Financial Adviser says to just chill about the market.

My commentary: Aint nothing to worry about other than a media panic. Just the brother to the flu.

Except you need disposable income/cash on hand to do that. 90% of my $$$ is in stocks or 401k already. And I'm one of the lucky ones.

rofl Yes he does have a lot to do with the spread of the virus. He selected the ever qualified Mike Pence to oversee it. rofl

trump will have some explaining to do when his own base voters get the virus. But right now they act immune to it.

Good morning ..... 560+ cases & 21 dead in the USA. Still not nearly enough test kits. No word on a anti virus and the USA is past the point of containment. Experts are saying we’re in for a tough year.

Stock market currently tanked 7%, triggering a level 1 pause. Level 1 means all stock market activity is halted for 15 minutes before trading is resumed.

10 year at .42%

Disney and Carnival Cruiselines are on sale this morning. Combined about a 9% dividend payout.
Just saying, there are opportunities to make it work for you. It’ll take time but they’ll both recover.

Those two are absolute no-brainers to me. Carnival owns the cruise market, no real hurry to buy yet though.

I’ve been buying both incrementally on the drop. Dollar cost averaging to the bottom. Then I’ll drop a larger sum when I feel it’s at bottom. Disney isn’t going away. Cruises aren’t my thing but people love their floating malls. They’ll be back. A 7% dividend In the meantime isn’t bad either.

I am beginning to hear panic in the voices on Wall Street.

This is good.

I think it will take some DOW-2500 days to get us there.

Once we reach capitulation, I will buy buy buy.

If this virus hits as hard as some predict, slowing businesses and disrupting daily life; I think you might see the dow plummet back to great recession levels. I think the farther and faster it falls the worse it will get because nobody really trust Trump and company to turn it around.

Markets trying to regain footing.

Why? Because once again, they’re all trying to pressure in yet another rate cut.

Jeez.....

That's what he does. He can never admit that Trump talks out of his ass and contradicts everything the health experts say. Which in turn breeds confusion and fear in people.

It's somehow the medias fault for reporting it.

The problem with all of this is that the markets are reactionary. They will react to things like the coronavirus and the tanking of oil prices no matter what type of economic measures you take to try and combat it.

Lowering interest rates and tax cuts won't change any of that. The thing is, you have to watch the people in power who will excuse taking such measures saying that it will help. Fear is something that people react to. And sometimes they use it as a weapon.

With Trump basing his Presidency on the economic success of the market that he inherited as an upwardly mobile financial smooth running machine of steady growth. Then he tricked investors by selling them his name to back a boom. He made it boom about 6000 points... But he also ushered in the era of regular 1000 point swings and over-reactionary mistrust. The current market is more like a game of roulette that pays out on 50 percent of plays but has zero predictability.

Trying to time the market is almost impossible. But you think or claim that you're really good at this so please tell us all when you get back in. We'll watch what the market does. Sunday you said it was the right time to buy, then the markets fell 7 points today. So today you're saying you're waiting longer... Just be clear and tell us exactly when you get back in and we'll see what the market does

For those seeking a hand sanitizer, you can make your own.

Buy some travel bottles. Put in 1 part Aloe hand cream

to 2 parts 91% rubbing alcohol.

You will have to shake it up, it will separate, but it works .


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

Please be careful with your perceived buying opportunities.

Markets are going to slightly rally only because of trump proposing a payroll tax cut and the feds looking to cut rates again. This isn’t the bottom.

This is like last week's little rally before more record falls. But the cv scare is wearing thin for now as people start to accept that it's inevitable. That might work in the market's favor.
