The administration in total disarray while Trump is screening a vanity project for the Red Sparrow.

The second Trump term is circling the drain along with the United States of America.

ultra wealthy prop it up with buys at the end of trading.

But, they can't keep it up forever....or maybe they can, they have more than the bottom 95% combined.

Our 401k's are just where the losses settle so that they can take ever-increasing profits.

It's down 0.74% right now, and a lot of that is probably the slide of health insurance because the buffoon started talking Medicare.

The most extreme example I can recall is the DUer who, responding to the drop in the Dow in mid-April, predicted it would fall to 10,000 by the end of that month. For the record, it closed at over 40,600 at the end of April.

It barely fell below 38,000 back then. Somebody predicted a 74% drop? It didn't even go down to that degree is the COVID collapse.

Indeed, the NASDAQ, as I type this, is up over 1%, while the Dow is down by .66. The S&P is up by over .50 percent

Will these numbers change by the end of the day? Of course. Which is why it makes sense to wait and see before declaring a crash is occurring.
