Fox Opinion Network is in full "Blame Biden Mode" today after the consumer report.

Do they not realize the consumer response is based on what consumers THINK what will happen in the near future????

Numpties might buy it, but anyone with a brain won't.
That's the problem...we need to get numpties to stop buying their BS so we can move forward as a country.
 
Yeah, as much as I hate Trump simply because he is a stupid and vile human being, I’m getting genuinely worried. I figured his crazy would be at a level 10, but it turns out his goes to 11.

Investments are taking a hit and I’m not sure when I should bail to cash. I’m two years from retirement and this is starting to suck.
I got out about 4 weeks ago with the announcement of the chinese AI app. Things kept humming along until this week. I feel very badly for you and everyone else should the market truly tank.
 
You numbnuts will force yourselves to believe anything. When can we meet so I can discuss a great chance to make money.
I put my spare change into the Nancy portfolio stock tracker index. Any trade Nancy does, I ride the coattials on. Wanna guess how much $ she's made me?
Nope

He had the economy running extremely well, and poised for growth in 2025.
He literally caused a recession. You dont remember geam blue scrambling to change definitions to avoid responsibility?

Thanks to???
Decades of budget deficits. It been begging to happen. Plus haven’t had a downturn since Great Recession. If you want blame I’d put it on Republican/Democrat tax and spending policies.
If I was to point a finger a one administration it would be Dubya. That opened the door for deficits don’t matter. Once that’s kicked down. Others simply follow.

Biden "caused" no recession.

Covid caused one - a BIG one, that economists did not think we'd recover from.
Biden's policies surprised the experts in providing a "soft landing" poised for significant growth, outpacing most Western countries in GDP growth


That foundational work is all being squandered by your buddy you voted for.
 
TESLA/Musk has me seriously confused. Conservatives have been anti-EV from the start, so they aren’t buying Tesla. Now Musk is doing everything he can to make liberals hate him; so they won’t want to buy Tesla, either.

It’s as if he’s deliberately trying to tank the stock.

Elon's always thought he was above the law and basic rules of social behavior. And this has nothing to do with his claimed autism.

He wanted in with a group that would make him above these things.

Before he went MAGA he was trolling the SEC and griping about violations they found on him and gave him a slap on the wrist for.

This is all about Elon's ego.
 
Turned on CNBC fifteen minutes ago....Did anyone know that the market is actually DOWN 0.1% since Jan 21st??.....the market panic continued today with the S&P 500 down 0.25%...they "reported"....

The sky is falling, the sky is falling...

Does that imply they believe that markets ALWAYS go up in every time period possible??

Oh, and by the way, the Dow is up 250 points and the Russell 2000 is up 0.20% today...

Would this make you think that CNBC has a reporting bias??

Covid 19 did not cause a big recession in the middle of 2022. Democrat policies did though.

I have bonds and CD’s. But I have a handful of dividends stocks like Pfizer and blue chips like McDonalds. I also have a boatload of Preferreds, which I love. But I may have to start unloading a lot of these.
This is one of the biggest problems I have come across since retiring, My wife is 13 years younger than me and it's hard to come up with a good mix of low risk (for my age group) and moderate risk for her.
