    Not on purpose I'm not. Just had some stock that I planned to cash out. Like I implied with my post, I have no idea if the market will go up on down.

    You think I would bump this thread of all threads if I was a market timer?

      Just curious as to what day we agreed on to stop giving Obama credit for the economy and to start giving it to Trump?

        Better yet, why don't we agree that the POTUS has only a minor effect on short-term economic trends?

          You picked a funny day to make this point. Then again, maybe that was your intent.

          DJI with the largest single-day point decline in history. Damn you, Trump! :coachk:

            I lost about 2% of my portfolio's value today, but I made that in January, so.....I'm not terribly upset. I'm about where I was when the market closed for Christmas. Now, if it keeps going down like this the rest of the week, by Friday, all of last year will be gone.

              Yeah, it was a satirical post that mocked those that claim the president had a lot of influence on the economy and those that want to keep giving Obama and/or Trump credit for the ups and downs.

              The Dow was down 1,175 but the S&P was only down 113. Good thing my money is in SPDRs.

                Nicely done. I hadn't seen the market news when I first responded.

                Ha! More sarcastic wit.

                DJI down 4.6%. S&P down 4.1%.

                  Well, I'm no longer worth a million dollars

                  I suppose what goes up must come down

                  I may be small, but I'm slow.

                    I like how unemployment dropped massively from 40% to almost nothing on the very day Trump took over!
