Stock Market is the bottom in?

I believe Tariffs are a selective consumption tax.

U can choose not to pay it.

I am surprised the Democrats didn’t use them.

Like Donald Duck says…….

“ If not made in the USA………… put it Quack!”
If it was only so easy. I'm shopping for a new vehicle. Could you advise me which make and model doesn't have foreign made components? Maybe you can tell me which gas station has gas that isn't refined from Canadian oil. Hell the computer or phone you use to post here isn't made in the U.S. So no it's not quite as easy as putting it quack.
 
What on earth is up with newsmax stock? I feel like it’s ripe for a short
It just went public yesterday, so it makes sense it went up a ton, I didn't know yesterday it was just going public or I'd have bought at the open yesterday. Someone made a lot of $$ on that stock. $14-$185 in 30 hrs is nuts.
 
You are saying the blue represents a 12% drop on the S&P 500 compared to all other stock markets ?

The blue does not represent a 12% drop ?

I'm not saying anything, Bloomberg is, reported by Unusual Whales.

It is a comparison of the S&P and foreign markets. To summarize, US markets are down 12% compared to foreign markets in Q1, the worst marks relative to foreign markets since the 80's.
 
A lot of the folks on this thread are not going to enjoy this rant :emoji_bride_with_veil:😦

It’s early but I can’t argue with that. Very very very few people are better off today than January both in reality and in perception. Absolutely anything can happen but so far the handling of the economy, essentially the main issue of the election, has been a disaster
 
That is strange. I've never heard Cramer get excited before. This must really be serious. OMG!
 
That's my thinking too. Probably not going to retire with my earnings from it but worth a shot. Also there's a chance that a bigger company buy's them out and adds them to their "portfolio".
What do you think of the Reverse 1:40 stock split? Is that a bad sign?

I'm guessing that he knows it is best to make dramatic job cuts, tariffs, etc., as quickly as possible so things bottom out now and will be improving by the midterm elections. If the federal job cuts decrease spending and the tariffs start to bring manufacturing back to the US as planned, it could turn out pretty well in the long run. But it could be pretty ugly in the short term.

Reverse splits have never worked out for me. They did it to maintain their listing in the markets but I don't think they're coming back up anytime soon. Had I known a reverse split was coming I would not have dabbled in that one. Don't know if the information was out there and I just missed it or if they decided to do the reverse split at the last second. I found out Friday right after I bought a bunch when the price dropped. 10 minutes after buying they released the news about the split. Luckily buying a bunch didn't amount to much $$$$. Some companies do come back but the majority don't after a reverse split in my experience.

I’ll disagree with that.

Economy might have been for you…or apparently the stock market?

I think the economy was down the list.
The border
Corruption
Deporting illegals
Green crap
Stopping the crazy; woke and all the gender crap
American jobs
Respecting police again
Rebuilding military
Pride in country
All were pretty high on the list, the stock market wasn’t.

As far as the actual economy, job market future looks good, price of eggs and gas has gone down, interest rates have started down too.

I don’t think the “economy “ is an overnight fix, none of the things on everyone’s list are.
The stock market will correct, and America will continue to get stronger.
Let’s see what the market looks like in 4-6 months and see if the sky is falling ends up being a MSM trigger or legit.

Having a fare and equal tariff system with other countries makes a lot of sense to me, why should the USA (American people) allow itself to be taken advantage of and get the short end of the stick?
 
I think Cramer has some good points, he also states he does not like free trade because it’s killed small towns!

He’s right.

My gut is we are higher by year end . Trump would have been better off just saying …

Ok
5% tariff on Mexico (another 5% if they don’t control the border)
5% tariff on Canada
10% on China
10% on autos, steel, aluminum

Market would have digested it, moved on, and we collect some tariff revenue & prices would not change all the much .

10000% agree on fair tariffs. And I agree with the other issues. I will say as someone in their prime earning years the economy is very important to me. And as a small business reliant on the state of the economy, and almost more importantly, to people’s confidence in their “economy”, I’m hearing a lot more “hope” that things will get better as opposed to things are great. Hope doesn’t pay the mortgage.
The unpredictable nature of his message is the issue, I and the markets, seem to have. It makes it difficult to know which way the wind is blowing today. And for those that say it’s a strategy…no chance. It’s a man who operates on a whim.
I still have faith this will work out but damn it’s rocky in the 1st inning.

Amen. Clear concise message
 
I'll admit, I don't follow global economy, and this is the first time I've been aware of this, but how in the world did anyone ever figure that tariffs that weren't reciprocal was a good idea? It just makes sense that if a country charges us 20% on goods going to them that we should charge the same for goods they're sending here.
 
All I've seen so far is the media getting people all riled up as usual. Nothing has even had a chance to actually kick in yet. People need to just try and stay calm or at the very least wait and see what actually does happen. Media is no ones friend,they are just going for the wildest story possible as usual. We should have already lost our democracy going by what they were so certain would happen. The guilty accuse. The left eat their own and it's getting interesting now. jmo
