You base your results on a single day?

 

In any case, at some point, it all goes to zero.

I just visited foxnews.com and foxbusiness.com, and there was not a single article on the stock market drop. On top of foxbusiness.com there is this article for Aaron:

 

Gold's record climb still has legs even with tariff volatility | Fox Business

 

No wonder MAGA are such low-info voters.

You're not much of a believer in capitalism, are you? Are you one of those MAGA fascists?

Nah, the only fascists we've seen are the left.  I just don't think gambling by putting your life savings into a rigged market is a good play.  401k is just a way to feed the bankers bonuses in the end.  But it's what we do.

Fascism is a right-wing phenomenon. If someone is truly left-wing, they can't be a fascist.

I guess I must be a banker, it sure has worked well for me. Of course I only invest whatever my employer matches in a 401(K), I've always done that. All my other investments are self-directed. 401(k)'s have too many fees, but an instant 75% return on my money from an employer is a no-brainer. Except maybe for the tin-foil hat crowd.

Clarify for me, are the libs fascists, communists, or socialist?

If the market is rigged, it is an advantage play, you just have to be on the side that's rigging it, and it's easy to do.

I guess I wont be retiring at the end of Trump's term.    I could have if the S&P got the same return as it did under Biden.    

 

He could have just played golf for four years and we would have been ok.    Too bad.
