It's going to be more volatile during these tariff and trade negotiations. Personally I'm doing well in the drops, pick up some real bargains, and can wait for my money. My only snivel about these graphs is the outsized effects the Big Seven have; the ridiculous P/E ratios a lone should make anybody wary, but apparently the auto-trading algorithms and institutional minds are all insane.
I predict that the S&P 500 will be well under 5,000 by September 30th

I'm never wrong. Feeding propaganda to kids is a very bad idea. Only nutjobs complain about restricting exposure to sicko deviants and people who peddle fake 'history', same with restricting deviant porn from school libraries.

so you want to define what propaganda is?
that's a radical departure from free speech.
just admit you're a totalitarian and obscene race criminal.
Projecting again. I'm just the opposite of a 'racist', and I'm all for defending our allies; obviously you're not.
Just admit you're a diaper wetting lunatic and think Joos are micro-chipping your underwear and stealing your lunch money and Polident there at the Home.

This word first entered the English lexicon around the early 1700's, coming from Latin. It is a feminine gerundive of 'propagare' (or propagate), meaning to set forth, spread, or increase. In other words, it is the spreading of information about an ideal. Nothing more.
It IS free speech.

Trump just landed a 6 billion deal with the EU today.
I believe that the volatility phase of Trump tarrifs is over, and now deals are being struck.
Just my opinion, thats all.
Yep, it didn't drop nearly as far or for as long this time. I personally liked the drop, especially in the steady dividend payers. Now they're climbing back up again, so back to making do with small price changes.
Worth reminding everyone that trump is very angry at the Fed for not dropping the prime rate to 1%. Considering the danger of inflation, 1% would be insane. It would basically be backdoor QE, because major corps could borrow money at 1% and lend it to the government at 4%. That would lock in an absolute safe profit. Even if the government unconstitutionally defaults, the mature bonds are allowed to be used pay back Fed loans.
This would turbo charge the economy, but also make high inflation definite. Inflation would quickly outpace the overheating economy, causing the real economy to collapse into a recession. But it would give trump a claim he has growth.
Inflation is the opposite of a liquidity trap. Inflation causes more inflation. Deflation causes more deflation, and is a liquidity trap.
Inflation from 2008 to 2016(8 years) was 11.5%. That means it was 1.37% a year, well below the 2% we would like to see.
Now after the pandemic, inflation shot up. Now trump wants to increase inflation even more.

Interest rates are not inflation or QE, Wally.

No, Wally. The opposite of inflation is deflation.
Deflation is not a liquidity trap or a trap of any kind.
Inflation does not cause inflation, Wally.
Well, that is just not true. Japan has clearly had 15 years of overall deflation out of the last 30 years.
Japan Inflation Rate (1960-2024)
Inflation as measured by the consumer price index reflects the annual percentage change in the cost to the average consumer of acquiring a basket of goods and services that may be fixed or changed at specified intervals, such as yearly. The Laspeyres formula is generally used.

Japan has not yet crossed into a recession, much less a depression. You really do throw around the term depression for almost every economy. Hopefully you will not have to learn what a real depression is like.
