I heard Trump doing more tarriffs
They gotta get him out
They gotta get him out
If this isn’t a play by the billionaires behind the scenes, this guy is gonna get murked
The question isn’t really if the market will rebound. The question is how long will it take for the market to rebound. 99% chance the markets go back to pre-Trump numbers.
However, the factor is how long will it takes and what factors are working against you getting there.
If stocks increase steadily but slowly or even worse go sideways/decline over four years, but prices of day-to-day living go up exponentially, a lot of people are going to be taking their savings and investment money out to get by. Not to mention if they have expensive emergencies during the time span.
Buying dips don’t do any good if the pacing or growth rate is bad. Things that legislative decisions highly affect. A lot of people don’t live long enough to see their payout or spend it all trying to cover for real life issues.
A lot of people know you buy when low. Dang near everyone has money to buy the dip, but how many people are actually going to thrive?
Not everyone is going to make it, even if they know what to do. Politics and all that stuff matters. That’s the reality check, otherwise there’d be a billion people with a million dollars of cash in the bank.
Yup.Yeah the “buy the dip” people don’t understand that the post 2008, 2020 and 2022 v-shaped recoveries in the markets were driven by the government and Fed injecting trillions in the market. That is not happening again at that scale. The ceiling has been reached and the national debt is too big to do that again. The national debt has increased from $10 trillion in 2008 to $36 trillion currently. $14 trillion of that has been since Covid. They can’t inject trillions into the system again like that and finance the debt without triggering hyperinflation.
Go look at Nasdaq between its March 2000 peak and 2014. It took 14 years for it to recover. That’s a very real timeline for the next recovery back to last year’s peak.
Also, slowing growth is going to force a lot of people to sell their homes, either because they can’t afford it anymore or need to tap into it to retire since 401Ks will be lower. It will be interesting to see how that plays out.
Yeah my cousin is a hostler driver at the rail yard for BNSF he just got his regular hours back from the trucker,shipping and container recession and now thisWhat a time to come into the railroad industry. I'm going to go through training, qualify and be furloughed immediately if this shyt doesn't get resolved.![]()
