Actually, many international investors are seeking the safety of the dollar right now.
No, because I not only knew they were inflated, but on any given day, I assume my 401K could be worth half as much the next.
Doesn’t really answer the question. Yes almost anyone competent knows that stocks should be a long term investment and fluctuations should be largely ignored especially if you’re decades away from retirement.
Yes, which is why I ignore conservatives and progressives alike when it comes to such BS.
Yeah, up 1,000 today. Only 3,000 to go to be up for the month. I'm not sure I'd be bumping this thread this month but you do you.
I didn’t bump it but I will gladly laugh at anyone that thinks the FED is not directly responsible for the past month.
This is a stock market thread you weirdo. No one cares about the Disneyworld wait times.I am even somewhat surprised by these sales numbers.

Orlando looks like it will be "cashing" in for another huge Christmas season crowd as well....as Orlando was the #1 destination in the US for Christmas Vacations.
The "max" visitor count won't even be reached till Dec 31st...yet on Dec 27th, 11 Disney Attractions have wait times of at least 2 hours today!! (I don't think I have ever waited longer than an hour for any ride...and thats when I was 14-15 yrs old when my sis would take me to Disney and I basically rode Space Mountain all day long).
This. We are looking at a medium to long term bull market, but that isnt necessarily a bad thing.

I guess I'll just wait for the lefties here to tell me they know better than Leon Cooperman.
What's hilarious is that these mindless lefties totally ignore articles like this, where one of the most experienced hedge fund managers in the world directly states that computers and their Algos are getting out of hand and causing undue volatility in the markets.

But according to FC, this doesn't exist. These wild one day swings are NEVER the result of computer Algos causing volatility. Never! It's John Doe and his wife, sitting at home, hitting sell on their ETrade accounts as fast as they can! That's what drives markets to swing 1,000 points in mere minutes!!
"I think your next guest ought to be somebody from the SEC to explain why they have sat back calmly, quietly, without saying anything and allowing these algorithmic, trend-following models to wreak havoc with what has, up to now, been the best capital market in the world," Cooperman told CNBC's Scott Wapner on the "Halftime Report."
