I just bought a bit, to donate to here again, but bow you see those buys go -1% then -5%. II'm dealing low amounts but it still makes you realize how shitty crypto is for even short term.

Personally I treat like any other non-EFT stock. It might crash and burn, but it also might not so it's worth having a bit of exposure. Especially with how some politicians like Trump have now jumped on the bandwagon,

I usually just surf the highlights, sorry if I missed anything, but does anyone know who the fuck is running the US right now?

Why have they not ejected the corpse?

I think it's split between Biden's cabinet members at the moment. That's just my thought. A few people have theorized that it's Anthony Blinken acting as the president at the current moment.

Having a bit seems ok, I'm just seeing how I just got a bit, <100 to go with here and there, no biggie can can give to KF if needed. Mostly just playing, the annoying thing is how long it takes to get crypto back to your bank and forth.

But I'm trying to warn IRL people about the market and this stuff, it's hazardous.

No one really knows, and apparently it applies to the bureaucracy too since they have been so inept for years. It could be Harris as the puppetmaster, which means she's been fucking up for four years straight. It could be Blinken or any other Secretary, but he's simply incompetent and he has to do sneaky vizier stuff to avoid blame. It could have been DOCTOR Jill, but she's not in charge anymore since she only had the one puppet.

Well, South Korea halted trading because their stock market went down over 8%, Japan halted when it went down 8%, it then proceeded to drop to 10%, rebounded to 7% and is now down almost 12%.

edit: Down nearly 13% now, their biggest drop since Black Monday in 1987.

why don't they just make Anthony Blinken or whoever is actually running things VP so that they can pretend things will run smoothly?

Cabinet members are usually no names as far as the public is concerned. So they provide zero advantages in the actual election.

Financial analyst here. Seeing a lot of posts about the stock market. Just wanted to add some context.

1. Yes we are currently in a minor correction due to the recent unemployment numbers. This is a just a temporary downturn that will last for one or two weeks at the most.

2. Companies are restructuring as they pivot from a more conservative approach to full-on growth. This is a side-effect of Biden’s recovery and shows a strong economy.

3. Unemployment is high due to layoffs. Companies are already making new positions with a different focus (more growth-oriented, think closing up cost saving efforts while expanding sales). This means the unemployment increase is mainly structural and will resolve itself in one or two quarters.

Tl;dr there’s nothing to worry about. Hold on to your positions. The absolute worse thing that can happen is if we swing the pendulum and elect someone like Trump who will shock the market out of recovery. Vote blue to keep your gains going up!

I mean, you can shoot Kelly's wife in the head and there's no difference.

Running Kelly means you can't bury the Trump assassination given that someone tried to kill Kelly's wife too and Kelly and his wife won't stop whoring out her own near death experience. Meaning they can't silence people talking about the attempt on Trump's life without being huge hypocrites

By the way, does anyone have a thread going on this economic collapse?

Because we need a thread going on this economic collapse.

Writing the OP right now, any and all quick info would be helpful, gentlemen.

So far I have:
The economy is about to roleplay as a slip n' slide and you better believe you better strap in, because it's going to be a wild ride!

At the time of writing this, Wall Street (The U.S. Stock Market Exchange) has yet to open.

tl;dr:

The East Asian Market is tanking.

Source 2

Source 3

On the plus side, at least Lockheed stock is rising! This definitely won't plummet once markets open!

My advice: either start shorting or invest in cheap food. it's going to suck and as with anything in the economy, no stone gets left unturned.

Edit: Right now I am mentioning the dow and nasdaq futures plummeting for source 2 and 2.5. What else?
