While democrats cheer whenever the American economy suffers

Smart folks got that LIMIT BUY orders locked in

BUY THAT DIP

Markets getting rocked due to interest rate but you are about to see bull run of a generation

Trump is truly giving the money back to the little guy

This is a real thing

Even if it goes down more.... STOCK UP

This stock market is gonna be something written about in history books centuries from now.

If you hear or see people freaking out about the market

Make fun of their weak ass hands and buy their stocks at discount

This is the easiest entertainment only, non investment advice I've ever given, ever.

TRUMP BULL MARKET
 
'cept 'the little guy' doesn't dabble in the markets....... bull is only the first word.........

'the little guy' should put as much as possible into mutual funds inside his IRA/401k and ride the American economy to prosperity

Rising interest rates will tighten the money supply and reduce earnings. We will likely see some growth but a big bull run is not likely

The "bull run of a generation" started 7 years before Trump was even elected. :shrug:
 
What democrats have cheered when the economy has suffered?

I’m sure you did not this but nearly every down turn is US was under republican rule. Every economic surge has been under democrats rule.

The one exception is Reagan but he ran up the deficit and unemployment to numbers that still haven’t been reached.

Not so much the tax cuts but the driving down of interest rates and inflation to zero interest and nominal inflation over a generation has certainly been a big win for most people/businesses other than financials and their investors. The downside of course is that there hasn't been a ton of wage pressure in part due to containment of cost of living and in part because the dems have nanny-stated the middle and lower class to the point that they are more comfortably poor than the poor a generation ago (which means they will work for less).


As for the markets, I am not changing what I am currently doing one way or the other. There will be a lot of bulls and bears between now and the time I retire. I put in what I put in systematically. I do other things than the markets systematically.

The rich get richer because they continue to do things that make them rich. The poor get poorer because they continue to do things that make them poor

Then there must be a lot of people born again and again because quite a few rich people were born that way and quite a few poor people were born that way. The only thing that made them rich or made them poor was drawing their first breath.

That you haven't helped your family become more successful is not weird. Sad perhaps.

These people are just projecting as usual and talking out their ass. They really are an embarrassment to this country

World's richest 1% grabbed 82% of all wealth created in 2017, Oxfam study finds

Perhaps, but some people also do not define their lives in material or financial terms.

money doesnt provide happiness, but it sure doesnt hurt

and it is a lot easier to be philosophical with 7 figures sitting in the bank....

You may not be able to fix it, but you could still help them not be poor.

You should help them not be poor. Once you are done being a child you will realize its easier said them done. Once you have given several people several thousands of dollars over the course of a few years to pay off mounds of debt just for them to build more mounts of debt and ask you for more money to pay it off, you will realize that saying no is best. See when you give someone money for food and an electricty bill and 3 days later they are at a jason aldean concert where you personally know that the cheapest ticket was 150 you begin it wonder. So when you speak to that person and they dont understand how spending 450 on a concert is a bad idea given their current financial situation, you lose sympathy. Dont worry, hopefully one day you wont be stupid too.

I have helped relatives not be poor. It does not require giving them the money directly.

you don't lose any money until and unless you sell...you have only lost Market Value of your stocks. Not the same thing. EDUCATE YOURSELF.

Because desperate ex-coal-miners are filing estimated taxes every quarter on all those stocks with their juicy dividends. Because "destroyed" Detroit residents can't figure out whether to throw an extra ten grand at junk bonds, because what the hell, might as well make it interesting.


:lol:
 
donks are stupid - period


zero reason why any Amerian does not own stock. None.

Not even expensive to buy at the exchanges what with Scottrade and the like. Then there is Robinhood and of course DRIPS. I started with DRIPS back in the early 2000 and went on to mutual funds.

Currently equities are less than 50%, from a recent high of over 80%, of my holdings. I am in the process of creating a bond ladder... not thrilled with bonds but I do recognize better now what I need to do for my families future.
