Tomorrow will be another rough day.

Futures down further, adding to the 4 week slide, oil remains above $100 with no end in sight, the 30 year treasury may cross over 5% tomorrow and the Nikkei is down 5% as of this post time.

Monday mornings are always rough at the NYSE...every week.

Follow your plan, not your emotions.

Many economies are going to be stifled for a while.

Growth will at least stall.

Stuff happens. This is a temporary issue. No worries.

Considering all that’s going on, a 4% to 5% drop for the month isn’t bad. I don’t know what’s preventing a larger drop.

Futures are down only about 0.35% - not as bad as most Sunday evenings.

I don’t see any reason in posting this. Just adding to fear-mongering, during a time when the US is accomplishing great things.

“I don’t see any reason in posting this.”

It’s a subject I, and many others are interested in.

Often strategies and tips are shared.

Inflation is NOT temporary.

It’s built in with the Fed’s target of 2%.

Check that out over 50 years.

I have and I find it sucks.

Do you have financial investments?
Are they self managed?

This nonsense reporting will last long enough to help the DEMs take full control of Congress. *Everything* will be done to take over Congress and stop Trump immediately.

Fuel inflation is temporary and it goes up and down all the time. Government printing money causes inflation for sure.

I for one am going to see what Jim Cramer suggests. Then I will do the opposite.
