The Dow is down nearly 200 points.

Maybe the reality of Drumpfian Economics is sinking in.

An economic downturn might wake up some of the Deplorables. On the other hand Drumpf might start a war like his buddy Putin did to distract them.

4. Traders disappointed in trump's presser performance

I knew it was just a matter of time. I took all my 401K money out 2 days ago and am trading everything short right now.
Market held up over the New Year because traders wanted to wait and take profits this year in anticipation of trump's lower tax rates promise. Good chance now the market goes down a LOT before it goes back up.

16. I have been short the USD v GDP, SEK, and EUR for 2 weeks

Today is making me a very happy woman.

Right now the Dow is floating around -70 but has been trending up since late this morning. Same with the S&P 500. Be interesting to see where it ends up and how much money the DUmmies lost for betting against the market.

I'm sure it was just profit taking after yesterday's high.

Heh! That DU post, if I understand their time-stamps correctly, was posted at the low for today. Since that post the Dow has recovered about 2/3 of that drop. Unless today's drop involved CNN or CNN's corporate parent, the drop probably had nothing to do with yesterday's beat-down of that CNN "reporter".

OTOH, if the drop did involve CNN (and maybe other skews media stocks), it would likely mean that investors think CNN (and maybe other skews media) is going to be hurt by their urination match with Trump.

I hoped every DUmmie took your post as financial advice and did the same.

As a side note, I may have to buy stock in companies that produce dog and cat food as a long term investment. I foresee demand for those two products to increase as DUmmies retire.

I certainly hope that DUmmie is telling the truth, for once.

So I'm austerity until Trump is gone gone gone.

Made 400 some today. Would've been higher, but Verizon missed some targets. Turned it into a great buying opportunity, you don't see 4% drops like that very often.
