Poor Bubba and the rest duped by T-rump: 2018 goes down in history as the worst year for the stock market in a decade. The Dow lost 5.6% this year, the S&P lost 6.2%, while the NASDAQ was down 4%.

December goes into the history books as the worst December since 1931, while Christmas Eve day was the worst ever in history. The Dow swung 1,000 points five times in 2018, with a total of eight times throughout history.

Poor Bubbas.

So... democrats?

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Yep, Democrats! Once they got rolling and submitted bills to return 800,000 federal workers back to work, the stock market soared.

So MAGA means to clean up the mess Trump created with the China tariffs. Got it.

[–] Bubbathegut (17228) 5 years ago

Nope, the jobs report came out today, it was better than expected. Trump is making things better everyday.

[–] ultravioletx (10216) 5 years ago

The drop was from the tariffs with China. The only way to revert it is to resolve that issue. The trade meeting is a sign of hope that it can be resolved. The market usually responds well to hope on the horizon, but it goes away if that hope turns out to be false.

The article you posted even mentions the upcoming trade meeting with China. So MAGA must mean to clean up the mess Trump created with the China tariffs.

[–] Bubbathegut (17228) 5 years ago

So you were ok with the current tariffs with China? Why is everyone against change? We give NATO $686b a year and no one seems to care about that. Trump ups the tarriffs on China and everyone freaks out.

[–] ultravioletx (10216) 5 years ago

I'm against Trump instituting them in the first place. I agree 100% we should undo everything Trump has done. You're trying to give him credit for hurting the economy and then bringing it back to Obama's economy.

I guess the best answer is the stock market cares more about China tariffs than NATO. Not really sure why you're even changing the subject to NATO when it's republicans who want to spend more on defense and democrats who want to spend less. Every time someone proposes we spend less the warhawk republicans always cry that the terrorists will win, troops will die, and democrats aren't real patriots blah blah blah.

Ok, lets just keep the status quo. Then everyone will be happy.
