I know more than I like to admit. The current run on the markets is pretty bad.

Hoax? It’s real. I’m losing thousands of dollars a day. The stock market is like a psychopath on a bad day.

This thing won’t last forever, it will run it’s course. IMHO opinion it was a deliberate move by the deep state to tank Trump. In the long run it won’t work. The disease will die out and the markets and the economy will spring back like never before.

In the meantime it sucks.

You only lose if you are stupid or desperate or illiquid enough to have to cash out right now.

If your house falls by half in value, but you don’t sell...did you lose half the value? No, of course you didn’t. But for sure, right now your house is worth about 1/3 less than what it was 2-3 months ago.

Hope that helps...

SB, I watched the 2008 meltdown, the ones that bailed based on the MSM hype lost big on their grand investments.

This Qannon phenomenon has woke more eyes. I agree with Professional... the sheep are being hyped. Gird your loins, we will are being tested.

Respond by helping your neighbor. It will screw with their heads ((if they happen to be liberal)(democrat)). But, they are humans that have succumbed to the false narrative.

With all that, FAMILY ALWAYS COME FIRST.
I know I will see all my FreeQs on the other side <3

I agree that they are trying to use the crisis to take down POTUS. I believe that POTUS will be able to use it to turn the tables on them.

POTUS has used the term WAR. There's a reason for this. More and more, I am thinking this was a perhaps premature release of a bio weapon that the CCP was working on.

China has to take down America, in order to get more territory and achieve their goals. They are an enemy.

We should not be doing business with China - basically it's reminiscent of slave labor. And especially we should not allow them to make our medicines, cell phones etc. etc. for national security reasons.

You aren't losing "thousands of dollars a day" unless you are planning to sell or use the stocks as collateral.

It is only a "paper loss" until you actually sell.

FWIW - My undergraduate degree was in Economics. An economist is someone who is very, very good with numbers but isn't outgoing enough to be an accountant.
