CNN, Fox, MSNBC Sound the Alarm on Wall Street ‘Bloodbath’ After Dow Tumbles 800: ‘Read it and Weep’

When the closing bell rang at the New York Stock Exchange Wednesday afternoon — bringing to an end a day which saw an 800 point drop — the three major cable news networks sounded a note of panic, reacting to what one correspondent termed a “bloodbath.”

The reason for the tumble, according to the real-time analysis on the three major cable news networks, was President Donald Trump‘s ongoing trade war with China.

These dips are planned by powerful people and the Federal Reserve is generally the engine that moves the Market up and down. Stocks are "on sale", get yours before the price goes back up.

USA has always been a 4th world Economic Nation.
Hell, they still use Imperial like 'foot' and 'mile'.  ::)
They can only compete Economically by trying to 'destroy' the competition, like Chinese do in Politics.  ;)

As one of the financial commentators remarked the other day ...

Share prices go up the stairs and down the elevator.  ;D

It is true.

In the long-run, shares increase in value, so the time to buy is during a "crash".

Patience is the key.  ;)

In times gone by, this was true.
That said, Now is not the past & we are Now in a different era, WHERE PAST CERTAINTIES, ARE NO LONGER CERTAIN!

The Reds and Whites of America are taking control.
While the Blue Yankees and Grey Confederates are being left in the past.

You should see my googly! ;)

Gotta feel sorry for Trump.
He's inherited a nation that just 'fakes it' to make it Economically.
You know when the USA is in Economic dire straights, when they bring in a 'Businessman' to steer the ship.
Trump is doing ok, considering how bad it would have been if Hillary Clinton was President - SHE WOULD 'BLOW' THE BUDGET! like a Shopping Spree.

USA experts know that China will eventually 'surpass' the USA Economically, but that's why Trump is confident 'Militarily' about China's prospects against them - in return.

The Middle-East has always been the most dominant Military Region and the USA (as a Cop) is 2nd best.
China/Asia, like Europe - is giving up the Military Ghost.

Expect the Chinese military to be out of a job within 50 years.

It's now a matter of WHEN, the BIG CRUNCH finally arrives?

Our bourse is way down and so is our dollar.

I'm worried.

I got out of BHP at $40 and won't go near it until it's hit $30. Another month of trade war should do the trick.
