Stocks dropped as the selling pressures that dragged Wall Street last week persisted, while investors braced for a slew of economic data reports this week.
it’s so much more than stocks. stocks are mostly vibes and short term get rich schemes for already wealthy people. they’re Pokemon cards for the finance class, creating almost nothing tangibly beneficial to society. hype and FUD in an endless cycle.
you can’t eat stocks. you can’t warm your house with stocks. you can’t manufacture solar panels with stocks.
real wealth, the serious fuck you Big Money, depends on the ownership and distribution of real resources: real estate, agricultural land, factories, pipelines, commerical buildings, capital infrastructure. these are what the ultra wealthy buy up during recessions and then charge rents and leases for everyone else to pay, forever. forget about owning land or a home, your kids can’t compete with someone paying cash on a 600k house or snatching up entire portfolios of hundreds of rentals in a single purchase.
bailouts and blank checks given out as PPP loans to “business owners” during Covid redistributed wealth from the taxpayers (government) into the hands of the wealthiest people in the world. they can then convert their Pokemon collections into real wealth generating resources. government bailouts to corporations become an engine for not just making the rich richer but the types of assets they then acquire using that money cements them at the top of the wealth generation food chain forever.
Trump 2.0 is engineering another massive redistribution, even bigger and more focused on real estate than before. he made his fake reputation on real estate. loyalist oligarchs who bank rolled dark maga will be handsomely rewarded with the newly emptied government office buildings and public lands.
yup, I’d buy apple or microsoft or nvidia because they are going down now but will go up certainly in 1 or 2 days or even weeks/months. Except tesla, this one will go down and down and down for days/weeks/months, tesla stock is super toxic, dump all of it.
One of the things almost no one talks about is how the prices of luxuries has totally outstripped inflation.
In 1960, minimum wage was $1.00/hour, the average US home was $11,000.00 and a big night on the town was $20.00 for dinner and a show for two people, with drinks and car fare thrown in. Pizza and beer at home was $1.00. A ticket to the first Super Bowl was under $20.00.
I think he’s doing this deliberately. Encourage people to sell, so his buddies can scoop up stocks at low prices.

and your kids and grandkids will be homeless.
I used “stocks” as shorthand. I agree with what you wrote.

I agree and I bought Nvidia. There will be a bounce up soon.
The problem is, nobody else knows how low the prices would be.
