Stock markets have already recovered the losses they suffered in April. What is going on?

He lost me when he was touting the 9 months of flat results prior to Trump, like that was a good thing.
I know it's not a scary answer, but maybe some actual data came in and the market reacted to it. Inflation is down, unemployment is 4.2%, and earnings for the S&P 500 have surprised to the upside.

Given the policy-induced market volatility - which may not yet be over - that’s nothing to be touting.

But, I guess it’s better than the alternative.
Yep, the tank and recovery were both 95 percent due to the actions of one person. I can’t think of another time this has happened.

Oil will "crash" on Monday, OPEC going to increase production. We'll have lower gas prices for a bit, and everyone will praise it (while our oil production drops). Natural gas will spike, gas will go back up. No one pays attention lol.

It's going to happen on Monday? Do you promise?

Lever up boys. Big brain called it. Easy win. Other side of your trade are losers.

Bessent is playing games. If he wants oil at $53 it will get to $53.
 
What if the tariff strategy works?
What strategy is that? No one seems to know and blanket tariffs are nearly unanimously considered bad for Americans and the economy. The President also shouldn't have this authority, not this President, not any President. The authority to tax lies with Congress.

My 401k is down 8% from its peak, recovering partly from being 19% down.

Your 401k sucks or you suck at investing. You have to try hard to be down 8% YTD. Hell, the Nasdaq is only down 7% ytd.

Edit: Sorry. You said peak. But Nasdaq only down 10% and SP 7%. And I assume you have been DCAing since then. Not sure how you are down 8%.

I now have to think you're a legitimate moron for posting something so ridiculous. Someone that believes this has to have a subzero IQ

You are rewarded zero points.

Apologies if it touched a nerve or two. You are better than that, lobbing middle-school insults.

But if you bought the Kool-aid, then it's not surprising that you are unwilling to see another perspective. The fact that the stock market isnt the real economy must be shocking for you then. Its a ponzi scheme.

Besides, he's not some idiot or subzero IQ moron like me. He happens to teach finance at a university. But based on your response, it sounds like you are immensely more qualified than he is on the subject matter.

(Fyi I am mainly in cash/bonds with some equity but on the whole, I checked out a few years back.) I was on Magellan when I was still in the States. Cash that out when I left.
