Market finally starting to correct itself. Was only a matter of when it was going to happen.
 
Dow down over 1200 points. Sheesh.
On top of the 666.75 pt loss on Friday...

Who didn't know this was coming? The market has been due a correction for a long time.

This is why it was/is stupid of Trump to try and take credit for the market performance. If you're responsible for it going up then you're also responsible when it drops...of course I'm sure he'll deflect responsibility for losses and his base will goose-step in line.
 
But I thought Obama was responsible for it going up? Is that not what you libs have been saying? It must be Obamas fault that it dropped then.
Actually they have only been reminding you of the 150% increase in the market during the Obama years because Trump beating his chest to take credit for the recent rise.

I can't take responsibility for what anyone else says but I've been consistent in saying that the POTUS has little effect on the market. However, if you're going to credit any POTUS for the market going up or down then be consistent.

Starting with Trump’s inauguration, the Dow has risen from 19,827.3 to 25,075.1 -- an increase of 26 percent. That’s impressive.

But it’s not as impressive as its performance during the equivalent period under Obama. Under Obama, the Dow increased from 7,949.1 to 10,572 — a rise of 33 percent.

In fact, the Dow’s rise was even more impressive under Obama if you start measuring at the market’s low point, on March 9, 2009, during the depths of the Great Recession. That day, the Dow closed at 6,547. Between then and Jan. 5 — a 10-month period — the Dow rose by a stunning 61 percent. That’s more than three times faster than Trump’s rise over the same period in his term.

So if he didn't mention upticks in the economy, you and the rest of the Dems wouldn't place blame on him during the downturns?

Both Bush 41 and 43 would not stand up for themselves and look where it got them. Bush 41 couldn't answer what the price of a loaf of bread was at the time. "It's the economy, stupid."

Bush 43 still will not shed the blame of the housing bubble.

Exactly which Bush policies, that weren't Dem policies were responsible for the housing collapse?

If it weren't for QE1

QE2

QE3

and finally QE f'n 4 dumping(printing) over $2 TRILLION into the stock market, how would Barry be remembered.

The Fed had racked up nearly $5 trillion in assets by 2014 and finally started selling off assets in the fall of last year at $60 billion/mo.

What percent increase do you think Donald would have if we could add another $2T?


Who knew that being a community organizer would lead someone to be so economically savvy?

What a ****ing fraud Fuzz and Barry are.

First of all, the gain you speak of under Obama wasn’t growth, it was the market recovering.
The market rose to over 14000 pts under Bush. So when you say it gained 150 % under Obama’s that’s a bit misleading, it actually gained approx 30% of new market.

Trump being elected was the catalyst to the growth over the past 15 months. It began a rapid ascent the day after the election, once again you’re cherry picking data on the numbers above.
The market was 18400 Election Day.
 
The Obama market gain(which should be calculated from 14ish) was because the stock market was literally the only place to gain returns. Rates were so artificially low that there were no other investment opportunities.

The market gains were strictly due to people having no where else to put their money.


Pretty funny fuzz came a running as soon as their was anything he could get all fuzzy about.

Just ask about favorite BO economic policy, run like roaches.
 
Fox news actually turned Trump off as he live bragged about the market to let the viewers know it was crashing. To funny

Even you fool's should be pissed about this. They allowed essentially the info of every US adult to get hacked and tried to cover it up for months. And when they did reveal it they tried to steer victims to a site that made them money. the Trump admin is saying no big deal, carry on. Luckily the states arent as incompentent and every single state AG is suing Equifax.

I find a 20-something who can’t spell and is ignorantly brainwashed to be rather amusing.

No doubt your parents still help you with your bills.

Yep, a radical community organizer/activist is a pro at economics. Also, the woman who has been in politics for over 30 years with no political accomplishments is the “most qualified candidate to ever run for president.”

Platinum and his leftist ilk are the scum of the earth. Dumb as dirt and honestly, deserve to be sent to a shithole leftist utopia.

You guys got played by Nunes, its ok, it happens. Hes clearly completely incompetent. His new line today was that papadouche & trump had never met or even known each other. To bad the Trump admin put out that photo of them together at the national security meeting. Nunes dug himself a deep hole and isn't getting out.

“I would say that if Papadopoulos were such a major figure, why didn’t you get a warrant on him? Papadopoulos was such a major figure, you had nothing on him, you know, the guy lied. As far as we can tell, Papadopoulos never even knew who Trump – you know, never even had met with the president"

During a March 21, 2016 meeting with The Washington Post editorial board, Trump called Papadopoulos an “excellent guy.”

So now nunes is changing his story.
Oops, nunes accidentally left out the fact that the political origins of the dossier were told to the court. And now he has to try and save his ass with more distracting memos.

“Distracting memos.” You’re so effing retarded. By far one of the most delusional and brainwashed people to get on this forum and that’s saying something.

Honestly, you regurgitate all of the shit you’re fed on a daily basis. It’s pretty embarrassing. Never once do you challenge a leftist take on something yet are an apologist for everything.

Acting like there wasn’t corruption and total BS coming from the Dems and FBI lackies for Clinton is an insult to anyone with a functioning brain.

All you have is attacking anything that dare exposes your POS party for what it is.

And now gowdy is also admitting it was there but he thought it was long winded and not to the point.


Look. Nobody here thinks there will be anything done to anybody in the DOJ for the DNC sponsored coup attempt since the election because the court system is filled with liberal lackeys as well. Good on Nunes for at least attempting to let the American public know because for damn sure the media wouldn't have done digging.

Got played? Lol.

You clown. Get ready for the circus, b...h. The level of deception from you leftist pieces of vomit is staggering and this was just the beginning.

I’m glad you take the time out of your genders study class and drum circle to come on here and regurgitate your idiocy.
 
the fact that the political origins of the dossier were told to the court.

Again, irrelevant. First, omitting who funded it is a big deal. Omitting it was unverified is a huge, against the law deal.

The dossier was unverified, regardless of what the FBI omitted, or included to the contrary, the fact of the matter is, it's illegal to use unverified information to obtain a warrant. Spin away.
