" .... U.S. investment assets (multinational investment portfolios) that are disconnected from the actual results of those benefiting U.S. companies, highly weighted toward multinational investment, and as a consequence disconnected from the U.S. economic expansion, can simultaneously drop in value even though the U.S. economy is thriving.

If we spent much less on video entertainment and electronic appliances and gadgets, that would go far towards winning. But that would require getting the word out and convincing many spoiled, selfish people to go along.

It is a concerted effort to destroy the “Trump Economy” to drive the approval numbers down to where the Cabal can take him out. Stay tuned.

You won't lose anything unless you bail.

Stick around.

Are those realized losses or on paper? I have a 403(b) account and it’s downside risk is pretty limited, so I am sticking with it. Buy the dips (if you can).

If you fell for the “safety” of the stock market, by all means stay in it. If not, gambling is also legal in many states.

Business taxes are down. Companies are buying record amounts of their own stock in the market companies making record profits. Yet the market is droping? Something does not add up.

Uhhh...

Does this mean to say that companies that actually make things here in the U.S. are doing better and companies that charge to just move money around (Wall Street) are not?

If so, I'm all for that.

I’ve felt for a very long time that when there is nowhere else to put your money, you put it in the stock market, and when there is, you take it out of the stock market to put it in those places (e.g. real estate). Obama’s economy made investing in it poison. As the economy booms and business invest in growing their business, that money has to come from somewhere - the stock market.

For the last decade, people have lamented the disconnect between the economy and the Stock Market. The market boomed while the economy waned. We are now seeing a major correction. It’s about bloody time.

“Buy the dips (if you can).”

Which will be helped with LT & ST Cap Gains at year end and divs, if reinvesting. Retirement portfolio accumulators should be pleased with this down turn.

You essentially are correct. The Hedge-fund market is losing ground because it is not based on actual performance. The multinational corps are being broken up by new trade agreements that allow local industry to compete on its own.
Under the Trump economy an apple grower in Washington state can sell his apples to the highest bidder. Under the Multi system he is required to sell to a single buyer who sets the price for his apples in each market.
The Multis control whole industries globally. His apples may sell for $1. in the US market and only $.10 in an African market. The farmer is getting $.05 for his apples because he has no other market to sell to. He is obligated to sell to the single buyer because there is no other market open to him.
The Multis have a vertical monopoly on apples from the grower to the broker to the wholesaler to the retailer. They have been working on the final step, the consumer. Under cover of law the Multis control legislation in each country that determines what the consumer can buy.
