Damnit, I came here to blame Joe Biden, but it seems like everyone else beat me to it. Oh well, time to go tariff some more countries and then act shocked by the results....

I like the little hopeful bump before the inauguration.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

That's not a bump. It's in line with the rest of the world.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, a bump in the world markets. On US news. A trend I hope we see less of in the future.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

On US news.

What news in particular? Remember, People knew for months that Trump was going to be inaugurated.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Still no idea why it happened, but it was a nice little bonus when I sold off all my positions before he came to power.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 hours ago

Smart. It was the the hope of a business man coming in and doing things good for the market (not for people mind you, wall st is not that out of touch)

How did Justin Trudeau manage this? I thought he was too busy making potholes?

As the fellon in the White House said - „it’s just a small group, boycotting, attacking …“ well I don’t think so „Mr. president“

Maybe they should try more tariffs. More tariffs will fix it definitely.

Tbh Wall Street can fuckin off. They helped create this mess. If this ship is going down, let's make sure none of the assholes find a seat on a life boat.

You think they aren't already profiting off of the downturn?

All of everyone’s retirement accounts are invested in the market. So it’s not just those assholes who get fucked by this.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 16 hours ago

Maybe it will force Americans to do something against that? If no one has any retirement, there's bound to be a lot of public outcry. There's nothing to lose if you have nothing.
