#1 But beware the programmed traders and the market analysts with their algorithms.

It is odd but all during those dismal economic years, Wall Street was in bed with Zero. And they gave millions to Shillary (the well connected, odious, malevolent, sadistic sociopath). I never understood why wall street would support a regime that wanted to clobber economic growth and promoted socialism?

Anyway, all it takes is some of these Wall Street democrats to tweak a program trading methodology and send the market into a tailspin. I think the recent downturn was a sign of that but when several really astute market watchers called BS on their program trades they had to pull their horns in...now that the SEC is watching.

#2 Wall street traders generally make money on the up and the down as they get a slice of each trade.

Plus, zero bailed them out when they got themselves in trouble in 2007-8 so naturally they were loyal.

Wallstreet is not the entire economy.

#3 I’m waiting for Soros and the globalists to kill the market at the opportune moment. September, say.
