Global Market Indices [We are winning]
Business Insider ^ | 4/7/25 | Anon

See Market Indices Page at Business Insider.

TOPICS: Business/Economy; Foreign Affairs
KEYWORDS: dow; equities; nasdaq; stockmarket
US markets down modestly for the day - the NASDAQ 100 even eked out a gain. By comparison European markets were down mostly 4-5%, Japan was down 7.83%, and China/Hong Kong markets were also in terrible shape (down 7 and 13%). If China's counterstroke raising tariffs were credible the markets would have reacted accordingly, but instead the markets are saying China will buckle (or making them buckle, if this keeps up.)

I was kinda hoping they would tank as I just put in another slug of cash. I know this thing is going to turn around and I’m putting my money where my mouth is.

Trump doesn’t bluff. I hope Iran is watching.

I was expecting from all the craziness last night that the market would be down 5,000 points by the way they were talking..did NOT happen..turned on the TV this morning and I see that its up almost 1,000 points and was like WOW what the heck happened..then read it was due to some BS rumor about Trump putting a freeze for 90 days which of course was BS(If Trump doesnt say it for himself its NOT true) ended up being down about 300 points..no big deal..just goes to show, the stock market is all about manipulation, they cant stand it when anyone stands up to the globalist elist

Iran and the genocidal regime occupying Iran are not the same thing. I wish POTUS Trump would not conflate the two

Good analysis. The tariffs created shock and awe (like the DOGE cuts) for an instantaneous bear market like the 1987 crash except a much faster recovery is possible this time.

US tech is down along with the made-in-China chains. The usual sector rotation may not apply since (for example) some health care is foreign made pill pushing and some is not. But the markets will sjhake out to the benefit of the US as a whole.

Nah, I think the media purposefully spread the 90 days rumor or whatever it is because s&p was trending up after a brief crash. Then they could say “look at all the chaos.”

The NYTimes solution for the markets being close to flat today? Put a big graph of the last 7 days front and center on their front page:
