Stock holders are getting a pounding today, and not in a good way.

a lot of factors are really coming into play, but the news from Apple is leading the downward trend.

How is this affecting you people? I know I will need to cut back on X-mas presents.

There may be more day-traders here, posting pics and making new friends.

All the red has been a bit annoying, but you have to be invested. I do have a chunk from some loser stocks I dumped, looking for a buy on the dip opportunity, but the market is so volatile is going took be hard to find the right time.

But, yes, really what the chimp says.

I short stocks through InterActive Brokers Platform. 10 more trading days of below 400 points would be the greatest Chris-Mukkah present ever but I would be equally happy if Disco 75 got a Parkinsons- Alzheimers combo.

As long as we're fighting China and their economy slides, we will have big down days. And because the Dow, etc are so high, WE GOT PLENTY OF ROOM TO FALL. Oh, and remember that little Russia investigation thingy...when that report (and indictments?) are released we could fall (or rise?) even more.

Better buckle your seatbelts...we're in for a bumpy ride.

the interest rates you are talking about is the interest the bank pays you for having money in a savings account.

when the feds raise interest rates it's what the fed charges for banks borrowing money from the fed reserve. The banks then offset that cost by charging borrowers more for borrowing money in the form of a higher interest rate.

it's suppose to slow the economy down. or keep it from getting to hot and creating a bubble.

stupid thing is the stock market is already sitting on a massive bubble created by the feds and The Obama administration

Trump comes in and grows the economy using the correct fundamentals and now the feds want to slow that down???


I still think it's the smart money pulling money out of the market to safeguard the wrath of Maxine Waters. I bet downward trend will continue thru out december

The fed also affects the rate you pay on your mortgage and credit cards. If it costs more to borrow you wont buy as much. Obviously someone wasnt paying attention in their econ money and banking class.

Grump, that's a technical economics term meaning "I am an unsatisfied customer."


"You obviously know nothing of the stock market.....

It's called ebb and flow.

it goes up and it comes down.....

been doing it for a number of decades...."

Uhhhh Mr. Stock Market Expert, it's called ebb and flow until we drop several thousand points in a week or two. Then it's called a crash.

Always remember whatever goes up it has to come down. That also goes to stocks market, housing and other similar things. Tech maybe making a correction for now but it will crash just like real estate market already feeling the slow down.

But no one can really tell but time will tell.

OK, let's re-cap the week on Wall Street. Dow down about 1,200 points in a week which usually sees a rise. Oil prices dropping faster than Fub's pants causing unease on Wall Street. But Dow still above 24,000 so we have plenty of room to drop in Dec.

Things not lookin good for the MAGA side. And then Jan. and the new House...

More and more Wall Street types looking for a decline in 2019.

FYI - I have the Tums monopoly here on HX.
