Wall St confused by Trump policies.

[Crafty Beaver]

We had stability in the WH during the Obama and Biden terms.

We saw the instability of Trump with his response/nonresponse during Covid.

Looks like chummimg with Musk is Trump's plan of action.
Turd is now benefitting by riding the coattails of the Biden economy.
His tariff talk has Wall St very nervous.

You said the equity markets were completely flustered by Trump. You pointed out that this was underscored by the various major market indices moving in opposite direction. Neither are true.

Then, when asked for evidence of this assertion, you pivoted to something completely unrelated & said a bunch of words. Wall Street appears to be all in on Trump's agenda, so far.

Strange deal.

You've done something wrong then. I'm up around 4.5% YTD at the moment in my 401k and IRAs. Pretty sure it'll be given back once Trump does a few more idiotic things.

Not saying I didn't gain anything YTD as I have done well IMO
Saying I checked on Monday to Wednesday and gained $2,000.00 by then. Went in this morning and had lost $4,000.00 since Wednesday. Like I said "market if not doing well getting a handle on this nutbag Trump"
Maret is going to be all over the place until he settles down "if he does".

Making over-arching political & economic pronouncements from daily stock market swings may be the most retarded thing ever posted on this message board.

And that's saying something.

Hope you do well in your endeavors.
Time will tell.

the horrible economy is mostly what cost biden and harris the election

biden economy was horrible

What's humorous is Trump's mishandling of Covid cost him the 2020 election and the inflation Covid caused actually helped Trump win in 2024.

Trump has to be the luckiest mofo on planet Earth.
As has already been established, he needs to die.

I spent the week watching cnbc (as I do every week). CEO after ceo was on with a very optimistic tone.

Depending on what you choose to watch or listen to, you come up with wildly differing views on reality.

YTD market returns...

S&P - 4.15%
Nasdaq - 4.25%
Dow - 4.63%

LOOK AT THE MASSIVE DIVERGENCE!!!

COMPLETELY FLUSTERED!!!

most of that is during Biden, but there was a massive rally after the election. I am no fan of Trump but the S&P is doing well so far since he was sworn in. At what cost, and whether it is sustainable are yet to be seen. Hoping for the best.
