agreed but only use funds you will not need in the next several years as should be the case for all market investors.

That is what my financial advisor always tells me. The more it plunges; the greater the buying opportunity.

perpetual ruins

I don't think anyone year is talking about a perpetual ruin - but some of us are market timers - we know when to take profits and sit on the sideline for awhile. Just sayin

This is all government propaganda to force people to accept poisoning themselves with government approved vaccines that they’re going to shove down your throat

Once again if you don’t know colloidal silver kills all viruses you can purchase it or make it yourself

I hope you have been able to settle down. Your source is all messed up. Don’t be a day trader or week or month or even year.

The world will end one day but probably not this one or with the Wuhan Virus.

Find another source of information for your quotes. You’ll live longer.

Yeah no $hit Sherlock! I just never seen it on that page ever before.

Good to see you are right on top of things Captain Obvious!

Here is something to take away from this. Do not give unsolicited advise. Certainly hours after the fact. It does not make you look like an all knowing genius.

The web page I was was showing that earlier.

It is now way after the fact, and the web site was obviously having issues. You would have seen it had you looked at it.

It was figured out over 2 hours ago, but thanks for that informative post.

I don’t think it’s that crazy, after Mueller, Russia-Russia-Russia, Impeachment, Trump’s Fault (TM) for nearly everything bad, etc. Our government actually does have decent, honest people in it, but it is also apparently riddled with pieces of sh*t who want to take Trump down and resist his every command.

Stock prices dropping == the smart ones are profit taking.

I’ll remember that next time I see someone running around with their hair on fire because of some obvious misinformation. Maybe they won’t feel so foolish if I just ignore them.
