Is Wall Street patriotic at all?


If ya have to ask . . .

I’m blonde, I do. But I think I know the answer.

How to invest if you’re rooting for other countries to take us over?

History doesn't bear this out. But this time it may be different.

They probably won’t. They said the same thing about Mexico not buying corn because of NAFTA renegotiation.

I was SMH, reading the headline, thinking NOT another poorly written headline, by another poorly educated 'journalist'. So....I clicked on the link....and, to my surprise, I found a DIFFERENT headline, at link.

The headline, at link, reads....

Dow tanks more than 700 points amid fears of China trade war

Perfectly written.

Why did you change the headline, from the actual headline at source? That is a FR no no, btw.

You read me wrong.

I’m pretty economically illiterate, and the takeaway I got from today’s stock market dump after the news of tariffs on China was, we have sold so much of our economy to our enemies, that it seems like the stock market acts according to what would be good for its owners and it ain’t us (the American people). That is one sorry state of affairs. That to invest in these companies (mostly American) isn’t even patriotic. You’re rooting for the country (ies) taking us over.

It was at the top in red reflecting 720. 700 was there as well.

Please, history is written by Big Corp special interest.
You obviously have not read much history. Small on knowledge; big on emotion.

An example of big Gov/Corp propaganda working as intended.
