we got that tax bill passed so we could give the superwealthy tax breaks. It's good for the economy, right?
Otherwise, the stock market would tank.

Fear of an economic slowdown is rocking Wall Street and the oil markets. The Dow plunged 600 points and broke below 23,000 on Thursday, while the Nasdaq is flirting with a bear market. US oil prices plummeted more than 4% to the lowest level since August 2017.
The latest wave of selling shows how worried investors have become about the eventual demise of the economic expansion. Those jitters were exacerbated by concerns that the Federal Reserve is making a mistake by continuing to raise interest rates.
"Equity markets are quickly approaching the capitulation phase after having broken below critical support," Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research, told CNN Business.
At Thursday's lows, the Nasdaq was on track to close 20% below the closing high set on August 29. It's premature to say the Nasdaq is officially in a bear market: Market analysts tend to calculate bull and bear markets using closing numbers. And the S&P 500, the benchmark for US stocks, would have to tumble another 4% before hitting bear territory.

Morons repeat talking points because they are incapable if expressing original thought.

If we are serious about stopping China from widespread theft, we have to be willing to put up with this. If we can make China yield, their economy is doing a lot worse, the market would jump if we can get a deal that is really fair to everybody,

The interesting thing about all of that is the Left's absence of an answer for any of it. Six months ago, it was all Obama's economy. Now all of a sudden we're headed for the next great recession. What did Obama screw up this time? What's the Left's plan to fix it?

The economy is very strong. The fed has pre planned 3 rate hikes. The moron has no effing clue what he is talking about so he talkes about the Dow. Moron.

The stock market has been up every week since racist @countryroads89 posted this. LMAO!

country only comes out to complain if the market corrects (Trump's fault). When it goes up or gains, he/she/it crawls back into that racist cave called home and ponders if it's better to appear as a black racist who hates white people or as a white racist who hates black people?

If he was half as smart as he thinks he is he would have bought a lot on Dec 20 when he posted this and he could sell today and actually be as wealthy as he wants people to think he is.

Folks like country always look at the day-to-day fluctuations in stock valuations (buying and selling) and think that's where the real value in portfolio positions rests. Anyone well schooled enough in asset trading knows it's actually P/E ratios that determine true valuations...Corporate profits last quarter were at all time highs. Just as you said, there are so many bargains out there now, you'd be a fool not to get in on this market which is way undervalued and set to bring spectacular gains for smart investment managers.

Energy, agriculture, transportation, communications, durable goods, construction, real estate, even pharmaceuticals...all are set to pay YUGE dividends as economic growth explodes from a new China trade agreement, increased capital formation due to regulatory relief and those darn corporate tax cuts kicking in for '19 and future business planning/expansions.

Buy low now, and sell high later as valuations top all projected earnings forecasts because of low interest rates, low inflation, full employment and LOTS of disposable incomes.
