Everyone knows Trump is right and Powell is corrupt. That's why. yw
Stocks don't reflect reality anymore. They're all propped up by tech companies investing endless amounts of money into each other for AI slop which will absolutely not deliver on its promises while simultaneously raping the environment and stealing our electricity & water. It's not sustainable.
Hair looking great there Don.
I think at this point, the Dow, with no policing now, is as real as an assassination attempt....
The stock market indices are a reflection of how rich people feel about the world, and life is pretty good for those shits.
You know it is actually been going down since Sunday don't you?
Ah. Shareholder value can still be maximized during the fascist takeover. Phew.
