  • The 2015 Market Crash

    Well, at least the stock market run-up was based on the fundamentals; namely a strong US economy that's creating lots of small businesses and jobs.

    Oh wait.

    Well, at least wages have gone up and people have some discretionary income so the dip won't be that bad.

    Oh wait.

    It's not like we haven't had a large influx of people, so the labor market will remain tight and wages will stay up.

    Oh wait.

    The Fed can still do a lot by loosening monetary policy so that American big business has access to capital at extremely low cost.

    Oh wait.
    Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

    Look at the bright side, there will be some great buying opportunities. Apple has a p/e ratio of 11. Due to the overall slide of the market, Apple will irrationally go lower while its fundamentals are still great.

      The world economy hasn't been good for at least the past year but it seems it takes a while for people to finally believe that it won't be coming back so fast. Like I said many years ago, the run up under Obama is mostly illusionary as the QE stuff simply kept the bubble from bursting again. It's been a slow growth pattern for the real economy and honestly, the U.S. Economy isn't in terrible shape. This drop is mostly due to the world economy sucking.

      Anyway, I'm not too worried about it and I expect things will normalize in a week or two and then we'll be back on the very slow growth trajectory that is typical of Obamas economic policy.

        Oh, and thankfully I own 4 tents just in case things get real bad and a white salamander tells me to pack up and head for Missouri.

          I credit Obama's economic policies for the quick 500+ point rebound.

            The solar announcement? Yeah, good timing on his part.

              I'm choosing to mostly ignore your fatuity here and instead overwhelm you with so much data that you'll maybe, just maybe, realize that you have reams to read on this subject before you can contribute meaningfully to any conversation on this topic.

                  It won't be 2008, but something more like late 2000 to 2003. This slide already started awhile ago, but the market will lose some not insignificant part of its value, say 33% or so, and will languish there for a couple years.

                      Thanks! I am going to make a ton of money with that knowledge.

                        Lol, go ahead, put some money in right now. There's never been a better time to buy. There are bargains all over the place.

                        Europe's down huge, Asia's down huge, but the US will buck the trend. Put a couple thousand into an index fund today and let me know how you do in a few months.

                          i should have listed to you three hours ago and purchased when the economy was apparently worse than it is right now!

                            It's gone up 850 points in one day. Buy now or lose out on the incredible bullmarket we're about to have.

                              You should start a separate thread based on this meteoric rise, extolling the virtues of Obama's economy.
