Don't get all emotional over the market guys. She can seduce you one day, and be a ruthless bitch the next.

Do you think either side of the political isle has handled this well?Love how inflation is because of a couple of checks... and not someone putting their knee on the throat of the fed demanding ridiculous interest rates 4 years gunning for a ridiculous GDP growth rate... all in the name of votes and self aggrandizement. There were loads of economists saying the economy was too hot for 4 years... (not that you said that but it seems to be a common perception out there)
Thank god old Joey just lets the adults finally make responsible decisions.
Anyway.
Not rooting for, but would like to see the correction happen sooner than later, hopefully it can be softened. Responsible, sustained growth would be my preference, and I think we need a correction for that to happen.
First off, @SAJ-99 thanks for all you’ve brought to this thread. Greatly appreciated.I am surprised by the number of people who are rooting for a significant decline. This would mean significant problems in the American economy, hurting millions of families. Have people just sat on cash for years and just want to be proven right in the doom and gloom forecast? I just don't understand.
This 100%, praying to God its soft or at least nothing like 08Not rooting for, but would like to see the correction happen sooner than later, hopefully it can be softened. Responsible, sustained growth would be my preference, and I think we need a correction for that to happen.
I think we have had some leaders with convictions, from both parties, that advocated for the harder but objectively correct path, typically they don't fair all the well politically.Do you think either side of the political isle has handled this well?
Remember ol Joey trying to pass a multi trillion dollar infrastructure package when inflation was at 8 percent?
How about Trump talking about doing a 3rd stimulus during the last election?
Politicians do what’s good for them, end of story
If Joe Six Pack thinks the recession will hurt the bigs more than it hurts him he probably needs to taper his consumption.I think many of us want to see Corporations, Financial Institutions, etc. pay a price.
The stock market went up 100% in 3 years of course I want it to come back to earthI am surprised by the number of people who are rooting for a significant decline.

Why? Because you deserve to buy in at lower prices? I'm not sure where you got the 100%, is that from the ATH in January 2022? I get close if I use that time frame (like 94%). If I use todays' close and go back 3 years I get an annualized return of 8%. Pretty average for equities on a historical basis. Basically, I think it did come back to earth. Hence why I am confused some people seem to want it to fall more.The stock market went up 100% in 3 years of course I want it to come back to earth

Unless you are older and in bonds etc, 8% is a terrible return over the last 3 years. 2020-2021 capped off the greatest bull run in history.If I use todays' close and go back 3 years I get an annualized return of 8%. Pretty average for equities on a historical basis.
No it’s just seeing people over spend on life’s extras and not wanting to save for a rainy day. And then wanting a bail out when things go south.I am surprised by the number of people who are rooting for a significant decline.

8% is a price return so you have to add in a Div yield of 1-1.25%. You get pretty close to historical average. To call it terrible means your expectations are too high. Also, it isn’t the point. You said the market was up 100% and needed to correct. I said it did correct.Unless you are older and in bonds etc, 8% is a terrible return over the last 3 years. 2020-2021 capped off the greatest bull run in history.
11.8% as of end of August (total return) but we lost 4.5% this month so a little over 10%. That includes the tax bill that was an immediate boost to earnings and flowed through to prices.What is the 5 year?
I don’t think it has anything to do with that. I think people just want to complain that life is unfair, so screw everyone else and let it implode. No one has paid anything to bail out anyone. It was all deferred.No it’s just seeing people over spend on life’s extras and not wanting to save for a rainy day. And then wanting a bail out when things go south.
Never said over a long period. I said for the last few years…yes it’s terrible. The S&P 500 return alone is much higher than 8%.To call it terrible means your expectations are too high.
When something goes up 100% in 2 years and then cuts back 20%, theres still plenty of room to fall. Which is likely what we will be seeing in the next year or two.You said the market was up 100% and needed to correct. I said it did correct.
Why do you worry about a hard winter when your a wolf? See you at S&P 2800.Why? Because you deserve to buy in at lower prices?

I’m not worried. Just think a lot of people have pretty a screwed up perspective on what they want the future to look like.Why do you worry about a hard winter when your a wolf? See you at S&P 2800.
