Just like 2007 in anticipation of BarackObama . 🤔🤔🤔

sp will be record high in weeks and you will have a new story as usual.

Here’s another theory: The stocks are overvalued and unaffordable for some investors who hope reality sinks in.

Lol. Talk about getting the excuses in early

Our country should be run “for the people“! Not just RICH people.The percentage of people who own stocks and bonds is very low... The whole stock market Caters only the people who are Rich! Warren is talking to the common man who have been left out!,They like what she has to say!

Oh, Misogyny is thy name. They are because Trump is destabilizing the entire planet.

These are the same analysts who believe climate change initiatives will hurt oil & gas industry profits. But it'd be a win-win if initiatives are smartly integrated with current energy channels. We're already losing ground on energy hybrid solutions to China.

Such a dumb theory.....

Hey CNBC stick to your criminal fomenting and boiler room pump & dump tactics on the public, and stay out of politics, your job is to hype & foment the markets for your criminal cohorts on the NYSE and your hedge fund buddies, which you’re damn good at..

Hilarious! 😂 Blaming the stock market softness on a candidate who hasn’t even been nominated yet.

Why do you guys do Trumpster's bidding? No Tarriffs killing farmers and manufacturing? No general instability and insanity in the White House? (the markets like stabiliyt, no?)

Tesla is up

Running on the platform of destroying our retirement accounts?
