This market is so disjointed right now, fueled by manipulation in price action and options markets. No longer investing off fundamentals and technical rigging is becoming an everyday occurance in 2019. Only thing moving markets is hopes and distorted news.

why'd they stop raising interest rates? if the FED has to intervene every time the stock market drops precipitously then the whole system is a sham IMO. It's like Mommy taking a test for her kid where the kid can't stand on his own. nuke the FED!

Red Flags. Given the economy cannot offset our deficit as the Republicans claimed & the economy is weakening expect Trump & Republicans to attack Healthcare, Welfare , & Social Security. 2020 can’t come fast enough to get rid of these criminals called Republicans who gave to Rich

So...why'd they raise interest rates?

Does anyone take these fraudsters seriously? It's time to drop the hammer and END THE FED!

Solid? Retail was at it's worse levels since 2009 when we were in a recession
