I suppose when some libtard socialist like Alexandria Ocasio-Kotex is elected and implements her plan to confiscate wealth and redistribute it to her lazy democrat followers, maybe the market will cease to exist. Or maybe we'll have a war between the workers and the lazy useless demotards?Â* Who knows. |

While you're celebrating the new market highs, Trump and the GOP greatly increased the deficits, they will have nearly doubled for the year starting Oct. As Fretwell says, it can't go on forever and nothing is being done about SS either, which will run out of money in 16 years. It's easy to have a party when no one is paying the bills. |

Sure, it has some downa dn recovers higher, or so it seems. That is a good thing. When I bought my first car gas was 21.9 cents but the Dow was $5500. If you look at the CPI it would be $45000 today. |

If you look at the CPI it would be $45000 today. "That is a good thing." I think that is what I said... I'm too lazy to go look enough to get fully commensurate figures, but iirc CPI has averaged about 3%/yr for last 50-60 years or so, meanwhile since inception the S&P 500 which is far broader index than DJIA has averaged about 12%; a net 9% gain... That includes the relatively recent market upsets of .com, housing bubble, 9/11, 2008/9, ... Is another major correction going to happen? Does a bear...woods??? -- |

Email list-server groups and USENET are like having all of those newspapers delivered to your door every morning. |
