Where have all the stock markets thread gone?

They sure were tied to the ex-President previously.









Having said that, we're due for a pullback. Or a Delta hit.

They are as pointless and unrelated for this president as they were for the last one. Maybe liberals have better sense than brag about unrelated nonsense. (Though I am sure some will still post about it.)

Moderates not liberals. Biden supporters are moderates.

Reasoned folks, educated.

yeah. that was funny.

 

[Craig234]

It wasn't funny, it was a common Republican campaign technique. Their claim can't be disproven at the time, and it helps push gullible and ignorant voters to fall for lies to vote for them.

Markets are driven by the Fed not the President. The president can **** it up but there's little he can to pump it up other that to try to convince the fed to print money.

Businesses, however, do respond to presidential politics. One company I worked for put a hiring freeze until the outcome of the 2008 election. It was kept in place since Obama one.

The company I work for now is expanding because Biden was elected. Mo' money for this type of business.

There's always winners and losers.

We should have a pull back today.

Well in all fairness, if you use Trump University math, which is "One plus one equals potato", it did crash.

Wouldn't you love to interview all of the students that were robbed by Trump at Trump University??

I would be careful here. The market is setting up for a real problem. I can talk about the dozen or so blaring alarms and red flashing warning lights going on in the market right now. The problem is that for the last ~12 months we have just been inflating assets across the entire spectrum. Whether it is houses, stocks, bonds, private holdings, basically anything. This is the fundamental failure of helicopter money policy where you are just pumping trillions of dollars into an economy. Sitting here waiting for FRB minutes wondering when the taper starts and how that plays out. If we catch either an interest or inflation shock the market will implode and there is a reasonable chance of one of them happening.

As an actual trader I view people's market evaluations (on political message boards) the same as I view weathermen telling us about next week's weather. Flip a coin.

Oh, you're a trader? Who do you clear through?

Wait a minute. You start a thread about the stock market on a political message board. Then someone gives you an opinion on what they are seeing and interpreting. Then you immediately throw it out because you received it on a political message board? Too funny.

He is the third or fourth "trader" I have seen on this message board, then when you press them about how they trade they can't answer basic questions or profess their incredible acumen by making money in a bull market!

We all should be amazed at how well America has rebounded from COVID.

Many foreigners said COVID was the end of America.


But foreigners always say America is going to crash and burn at any moment.

There will probably be a crash. Our system is based on informed casino gambling, and eventually the coke wears off.

of course. never take trading advice on political message boards. first, you don't know the person and if you can trust them and second, stuff on political message boards is normally slanted due to politics.

well, unless you want to roll the dice.

So what is your trading strategy? How are you structuring? Who are you clearing through? Are you hedging?

I didn't read it as he was dispensing active trading advice. It was his view of the market/economy and nothing more. I for one appreciate his take and would love to hear yours as this interests me and I'm always trying to learn something new.

Unless of course this is just another thread about Trump.

well, those are quite broad questions. you have a couple hours?

if you just want a summary i'm a swing trader.


not really sure what that has to do with your evaluation of the market though.

sorry, the last place i'd look for trading evaluations is on a partisan pollical board like this one.

now, i can point you to a trading group that i was once in if you want. it was so unbiased. or you can find folks that do evals for a living all over the place (but they're not always correct either). just avoid anyone that has an agenda.

Yup. I got time. So you are purely working on technicals? Are you doing this in primary or secondary markets? Are you doing this by derivatives? Equity only? How are you clearing?
