And an end to the BS anarchy that y’all seem to like to highlight.

investors see all the other countries passing huge stimulus bills that is what they are reacting to

What gives is their confidence in President Trump. You know, the guy you hate so much you give us anti-Trump propaganda about 24/7.

V shaped recovery expected. StockMarket looks six months ahead. Don’t knock it if you have a retirement account

Stock market began by selling live stock n humans for slavery. A blk man life doesnt mean anything bc they dont see him as human. So just chug alone, slave owners.

Reminder: the stock market is not just for the “1%.” vast numbers of middle-class folks have their retirement funds invested in the market.

For all the deluded people that think hard working rich people are the problem, listen to what Abraham Lincoln had to say about a few things. Quite contrary to todays liberal beliefs.

they deal in numbers, not people. won't they be surprised.

Something is not right with stock market. Do not like what I am seeing except I am still making cash. But it is like it does not see the obvious problems ahead.

The prankster bankers are just playing the game of invest so we can take all your money again.

It’s all fake fed money manipulating the stock market followed by institutions and than retail investors. The stock market is not indicative of the real market. It’s sad what will happen to retail investors when they decide to pull the carpet out from under them.

All this means is the stock market/Wall Street is not Main Street and is not an indicator of how well Americans are doing financially

Sure, it’s not the billions of money the Fed pumped into the system to continue artificially inflating the stock market to hide trump’s incompetence until Nov.

Did you let paulkrugman know? He holding up okay?

We live in a plutocracy.

Apple, Microsoft, Netflix, Amazon it makes sense that they'd be doing well right now. But that's all it means.

How much is it that there are only do many plans e for the top 0.1% to stash their wealth? inequality

bope

Investors pay little attention to NPR.

They took money from the poor, gave it to the rich.

Many of them understand both history and mathematics. That’s why.

Pump and dump....

The 40 million unemployed will not 'rebound' anytime soon.

the treasury is dumping money into it in a desperate, all-out attempt to shore it up and hide the catastrophic damage the trump government is causing america.

The folks on Wall Street are playing a completely different game than the rest of the country. Markets are only an indicator of their success, not ours.

The stock market is simply a reflection of the successful gambling by extraordinary wealthy companies and individuals back in small part by 401(K) and IRA investors. As long as they’re making money as restrictions on any number of things are loosened it will remain high.

what gives is that the stock market is a back-room card game where the top hold all of the cards and they don't stop playing just because life is falling apart for most of us in fact, they are opportunists who will find a way to capitalize upon our collective suffering

It's all rigged, there's no tie to reality in the stock market anymore

It’s the Fed’s. That is the real looting of America. Why won’t you investigate? Boss is making bank?

The stock market is for the 1%. The economy is for the rest of us.

Oh boy, this bodes well for me, someone with zero dollars in stocks

rich people trading paper

They just don't want to miss out when actual value arrives in 2022. These people can't leave a single nickle on the table.

It's all a bubble, private firms are inflating the market to bring citizens investors and take their money.

Investors see the folly of panicking over the virus and the mechanical unemployment that ensued for nothing. If protesting is encouraged, but going to work is told to be too dangerous, it is easy to do that math on that one.

The stock market is NOT indicative of the economy.

The market understands the US military has the GPS coordinates of all the Antifa leaders. TimesUp

The world has yet to see the costs of shutting it down.
