After two huge sell-offs in a row, U.S. stocks are all over the map on Tuesday. Investors blamed the wild moves on a combination of interest-rate fears, computer-driven trading and the obscure volatility funds that use leverage.

Remember how Obama told us not to pay attention to the daily gyrations of the stock market????

So then, why would the liberals be so apprehensive about this downturn, especially after it comes after a year plus of major gains?

Isn’t the stock market still up over 30% since Trump’s election, even factoring in this decline?

Maybe that was something Obama was right about, not to stress out over day to day changes in the markets.

Shame that it took a dip in the market for CNN and company to give Trump full credit for the stock market performance.

I bailed a month ago. Way to close to retirement to chase returns I really don’t need.

They were too quick to label it the “Trump Bump” when it looked like the stock market was headed for a crash. Now that it looks like that may have been an anomoly, they’ll go back to giving Obama credit for the rise in the stock market.
