(Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures slumped on Friday, with travel, bank and commodity-linked stocks bearing the brunt of the selloff, as the discovery of a new and possibly vaccine-resistant coronavirus variant spooked investors ahead of a short trading session.

It will never end till we make it end.

And for those who have thusfar, still existing in the haze of their fear, refused to accept reality, it is becoming undeniably clearer with each passing day, with each new "variant", with each new crush of Liberty that it is going to take force to end it.

Once they get a taste of controlling hundreds of millions of people by just speaking their desires, their edicts, tyrants will never relinquish their self-anointed vast new power unless it is taken from them ... and that is very likely going to require the use of directed force.

What a great way to multiply justification by 50 fold - 2% symptomatic, but we’ll make it 98%. Just for grins.

From Australia to Austria, our warning signs - we are following them, as they are the models for all other nations in the Great Reset.

It’s “curious” isn’t it? That just a couple of days after numerous articles about how, contrasted with the rest of the world, Africa has done well with the Fauci-sponsored virus, that this new, worst-ever-in-the-history-of-the-word “variant” is discovered ... in Africa.

Ah, the typical Freeper expectations that the stock markets are finally going to crash. Dow has gone from roughly 31,000 to 36,000 under Brandon. They’ve made the rest of our investment options so bad, including an accelerated devaluing of the dollar, that most serious investors have no choice but to invest in stocks. That, along with the woke money, a lot of which is in tech, will likely keep the stock markets from crashing unless the entire planet implodes.

People who missed the market due to irrational fears are the biggest losers. We make a decent income, but investing hard in equities had paid off.

27% return in 20 and 46% return in 21.

I went to all cash 2 weeks ago. Retire next year.

I’m 60. If I were 40 or younger, I’d go cash and wait for a correction and go all in on the 10% dip.

I went all in after the mortgage crisis and the covid corrections.

I posted something like this before and got flamed by Red Badger or some such nut like that.

We'll see if it is like the "100% off" sales, happening in many stores.

Well, it is just a matter of time. What was the rationale?

Thanks. According to that guy, the Friday after Thanksgiving has closed higher 70% of the time. Right now the DOW is down 900 points and trending downward, so we seem to be bucking the norm.

Even before Free Republic existed, that was the refrain of many. I've been hearing "get out of the stock market now" since I was a boy growing up in the 1970s.

They claim it's the new strain of Covid in South Africa. That is a bald-faced lie. The big boys were looking for an excuse to sell out and leave the general public as bagholders and they got it. The ONLY thing that should rock markets would be a major war and potential for military defeat. Everything else is a lie for manipulation.

The market is most certainly rigged, except it’s to make hedge funds, politicians and the pedophile ruling class stupid rich

You figured it out. Way to go.
