Price hikes from the tariffs will hit soon. Starting to hit already but barely. Much more to come...

Yet another strawman. A dime a dozen for the wingers...

I can buy again when it tanks. I typically catch it on the way down. It's very hard to time the exact bottom.

Probably not quite that bad since diaper Donny is caving to China.

No short sell. Just freed up some cash for the next plunge. It will happen.

Funny. The right only cares about the debt when democrats are in power. The hypocrisy of the rt stinks to high heaven.

Most of those are small programs and many have already been cut a lot in recent years. More bang for buck to go after the big stuff. You'll barely make a dent if you don't go after military (I see you have that) but also ss and medicare.

This problem continues to get worse. Bond yields are highest they've been since February and they were only slightly higher back then. Big part of this is the reckless budget being proposed by the GOP. Zero financial discipline or paying attention to the deficit.

That's a 100% lie. I'm OK with REAL spending cuts. Not this B.S. of cutting DEI and Dept of Education and NPR. Let's make some major cuts to big programs, like military. I'd completely gut our military. I've said that countless times. I'd also eliminate ALL foreign aid, especially to genocidal leaches like Israel. I'd also be fine with cutting funding to Ukraine too though. I've also implied or stated that I'd be OK with modest cuts to social security. People w/ several million dollars don't need it. I've stated all of these, in most cases several times. The wingers hypocrisy and lies are a dime a dozen.

Total strawman argument. Nobody is proposing that. I think a slight tax increase, especially on the middle class, is very reasonable. Unless you want to gut social security and medicare. News flash: we have a big deficit problem.

Dumb to cut taxes when you have a runaway deficit, unless you cut spending WAY more than taxes. The wingers only are willing to cut extremely small programs though. DOGE was a joke. Hands off of ANYTHING that makes up any significant % of the budget. Focusing all the cuts on microscopic programs like DEI, planned parenthood, USAID,NPR, and DOE is more pathetic than the diapers covering Trumps fat rear end.

Bond yields highest in 3 months today. Probably has something to do with GOPs blatant disregard of their runaway deficit spending.

Fact: GOP IS THE PARTY OF RUNAWAY DEFICITS. NOT EVEN OPEN TO DEBATE. THEY KEEP SELLING THE BS "REDUCING TAX RATES INCREASES REVENUE" KOOL AID AND IDIOT WINGERS KEEP BUYING IT DESPITE ALL DATA PROVING OTHERWISE.

PhD economists

Not sure where you get that figure, but the benefit they provide through cheap labor (and a young work force) is much more than that.

Those immigrants actually work, and for cheap. It's a,great deal for us.

I think it's fine if you pay for it. Increase taxes accordingly and I'm good w it.

The winger congress won't trim jack squat. They'll increase the deficit instead.

Just adding it to the national credit card. I'd be good with it if taxes increased to pay for it.

What was s&p 18 yrs ago? Look it up. And on top of that, remember that s&p outperforms general stock market. Hope you can figure out why that is.

Nope. Today was a blip. He caved to China. Bottom line. Like a true coward.

Some rare individual stocks maybe, for startups. Not any diversified portfolios. Not remotely close. Pie in the sky. Nice winger spin tough.

Yah. It will surely grow by 15,000% in 18 years. Is that more winger math?

So taxpayers(down the road) fund a $1k account for every kid? Wow. Basically sending free checks out like we did during covid. Just keep jacking up that deficit. No way the wingers would be ok with Biden doing that. More winger hypocrisy.

It's gonna tank again. Watch. There's still huge uncertainty until or unless we get a permanent agreement. Shipping costs will soar during the 90 day pause to make up for the recent weeks and the uncertainty of 90 days from now, on top of the residual tariffs so prices will continue to increase. Today was an overreaction. Big time.
