  1. AByte User crash is coming regardless of who wins. If it happens under a Trump 2nd term, he will just blame something else and we will not have the brains to pull out of it. If it happens under Dems, you’ll just blame it on Dems.

  2. Federal subsidy of the stock market. The billionaires are going to unload their bags on the retail buyers and we enter a recession.

  3. wayne maulio you don’t seem particularly bright. And when you are backed into a corner, you just seem to start cheerleading Trump. There are more idiots than smart people in the world, which is why the wealth gap is ever-increasing. You can vote for Trump all you want and wait for government to solve all your problems, but you will find out real quick that neither he, nor the government, care about you. And neither do I.

  4. NicSD America does not have free enterprise. It has capitalist profits, but socialized risk.

  5. NicSD until Uncle Sam bails them out at our expense.

  6. V K it’s about timing. Wait until there’s blood in the streets.

  7. AByte User diversify. We are in the “everything bubble.” Only the savvy will survive, and there will be many pigs to the slaughter.

  8. AByte User shrug. If anyone knew, they’d be a billionaire.

  9. wayne maulio uh, look up every instance of a Recession in modern history, and you’ll see it always occurs under GOP leadership. You are not being factual.

  10. wayne maulio this has nothing to do with news. It’s called history. You can easily do your own research and see that every recession occurred under GOP leadership. These are just facts.

  11. wayne maulio Trump isn’t a smart man at all, and he only appoints sycophants. When the recession happens under his watch, we will not have competent people to steer us out of it. I mean, how many “best people” has he already fired?

  12. wayne maulio Trump was born a billionaire...he didn’t earn any of it. And father inherited those billions from his grandfather. Trump’s father siphoned all the wealth to him in a form of a tax dodge as well as other shady means. You really have no idea of anything about Trump, huh? Trump is a narcissistic moron that only hires “Yes men.” There is nobody in the room that will tell him he’s wrong. Because of that, he will not be in a position to steer us out of anything complex. When you appoint advisors, is because you want to hear different ideas from competent minds; not simply people that tell you what you want to hear. And what do you mean the economy is higher? By what metric? You could have said the same thing about Obama during his tenure too, due to endless QE by the Fed.

  13. wayne maulio what is he doing for the people? He’s never done anything for anyone but himself. He doesn’t even have a friend in life. Tell me, how many longtime friends can you name from him that he still keeps? The guy is a wealthy sociopath, and you’re a fool if you think he cares about you. And Democrats only have the House. GOP has the Senate and Executive branch. What do you expect them to do if McConnell vows to block everything and Trump is guaranteed to veto?

  14. wayne maulio lol, you can’t counter any of my points. You just resort to Trump worship. It’s obvious you have no interest in debate or sharing new ideas. You have drunk too much of the koolaid.

  15. NicSD a lot of big corporations have tax subsidies, stock buybacks, and bailouts. Most of the participants are not average retail buyers. When the top 1% cash out, it’s the average citizen that’s going to get burned. Again.

  16. NicSD tax subsidies are socialized risk. The corporations get a tax break that had to be made up for somewhere else. The Fed’s balance sheet is all about buying up stocks and essentially giving free money to the rich to buyback. “Desirable” Immigrants are invited if they have a useful skill or if they buy their way in. In which case, they are already in the know. All the other immigrants, well, I suppose this Administration is doing its best to keep them out.

  17. NicSD charities are a tax dodge. And libs have to pay more taxes, remember? I wasn’t talking about illegal immigration. I was talking about restricting immigration from...undesirable (to paraphrase his words) countries. And how’s a barber giving me a discount the same thing? In a free market, you would need government to help you out. That’s Socialism.

  18. Retail investors hold the bags for the people that cash out. They’re the ones that buy Tesla at $900 or Bitcoin at $20K. Market psychology is what makes a small few rich at the expense of many.
