Making a comment? Sure. That’s not what skinny prog was doing.

Good to see you defending your people though.

The drop was due to Powell opening his trap and spewing more uncertainty. It was fine until he gave his little talk. fricking hate that guy.

Fed cutting outside the scope of a normal meeting has caused more panic. It's viewed as a desperation move. Plus, with an increased number of companies slowing down or delaying production, that will have a real impact on earnings.

Markets don't like uncertainty, and the ultimate impact of coronavirus is as uncertain as it gets.

Perhaps the President can learn a valuable lesson.

Can the central bankers save the Trump economy?


No need to save Trump’s economy it’s doing fine. The Fed was Obammy’s economy. Lol!

This. The cut was basically expected, but not coming out of an emergency meeting 2 weeks ahead of time.

What exactly do the investors want?


Nobody with any real cash is bailing. My friend that works at Goldman has been talking about how many clients have wired in cash over the last few days.

Outside of thinking about what you want to buy, it’s pointless to think about the market right now. The sheep will always come out to get slaughtered.

I’m not celebrating it, but I can’t help but giggle at how you idiots yesterday thought yesterday's spike was all tied to Trump “solving” the coronavirus crisis.

You all looked like dumbasses while discounting American deaths, whether they were old or sick.

You disgust me.

Sounds like some BS....how’s Trump gonna solve the COVID19 outbreak? All he can do is try to minimize the spread and keep us informed on potential vaccines and treatments.

Powell talks and the market drops 900 points. Trump talks and it comes back 250.

The President shouldn’t have adamantly tied economic growth to a rising stock market while attacking the Federal Reserve.

It’s blowing up in his face.


Have you always been retarded, or just when posting here?

I think this is the problem. This admin has spent all week telling people that this wasn't a problem. Then, the central bank lowers rates to solve the problem.

The administration is dealing with this as a health issue. The Fed is dealing with it as an economic issue. Two very different things.
