PaulZeise Still down for week, month, year.

Democrats and Republicans blaming or defending their president over the stock market? We're back to our regularly scheduled programming. But I for one am bored of this show. Is there anything else on?

Yeah setting crash and rise records days apart is definitely normal and healthy

The comments hahaha

WSJ NBCNews CBSThisMorning 🇺🇸1 Man defied all odds to become our 45th President.🇺🇸 1 Man stands alone for “We the People”. 1 Man is Destined to take down the Deep State. That Man realDonaldTrump gave up his way of life to save our Country. God Bless You, Mr. President!

costareports I would have grimly taken hit to my portfolio to prevent Trump from having another meaningless talking point about biggest one day gain.

Going up is better than going down but absolute numbers are not important in term of “record highest” anything since the base absolute number has grown. This was 5% up but there were two in 2008 when it went up over 10%! 5% is not in the top 20 days for the market in % growth.

costareports Cool. Now it's only down 2000 over the past few weeks.

Stand4Liberty_ SchumerShutdown

costareports Need more proof wall street is rigged? Retailers hate the day after Christmas, because of all the returned gifts! 1000 points up! Christmas eve, last shopping day before Christmas, down 653 points! Consumer confidence is so much bullshit! So Fucking Rigged!

costareports Thanks Trump

So this is why he stayed in the white house he knows he was sunk if the market continued it's downward trend So why I wonder nothing changed

costareports Anyone think trumps trip to Iraq had anything to do with rise of Dow today? Maybe he should remain in a state of perpetual travel on Air Force 1.

You have 13 million followers .....and only 800 likes here.....there is a reason for that....it's called your a manipulation tool

costareports On 50% of week ago volume.

costareports But not the biggest one day gain in terms of percentage, which happened under President ... wait for it ... Obama.

I'm gonna keep on the run I'm gonna have me some fun If it costs me my very last dime If I wind up broke up well I'll always remember that I had a swingin' time I'm gonna give it everything I've got Lady luck please let the Fed stay hot Let me shout a Trump with every shot

Thank You President Trump ! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Nene really look at the market one day at a time; look at trends. Duh.

Pencils for Sale.

This is important: 1)trump COULD'NT TWEET AS HE WAS BUSY GETTING 2 IRAQ (not Baghdad!) 2 lie 2 the troops: 18 hrs w/out a tweet! 2)pres Economic Counsel chief lied 2 Wall Street re: pres has 'no intention' of & has never discussed firing FedTesChairman

DavidGr78574965 'Nobody knows the system better than me, which is why I alone can fix it.' realDonaldTrump WordsWordsWords crash 💥

Who made money off this fake crisis?

costareports Pelosi is coming bump

costareports Trump was not tweeting today.

costareports Good time to buy!

costareports Okay, I get it. It's just gambling, sorta like slots or bingo. Right?

costareports Dead Cat Bounce, end of the year. Troubles ahead

CBS19News Is it just me, or is the AP doing its best to disguise a probable ‘dead cat bounce’ as something good? I mean, really.

Because violent up and down market swings are a totally good sign 👌

Jajajaja lol 😂 and days ago you guys suggested “the world 🌎 is gonna end”

LMFAO paulkrugman.

but seriously, can we stop measuring moves in points and use percentage instead....CliffordAsness

Same AP clowns who wrote that the drops were because of Trump better start writing that the gains are due to him as well.

teeryan66 If anything, the onslaught it faced during the last week was leftover from the Obama admin, right? I mean he and the left were taking credit for all of the markets actions up to that point.

The stock market crashes on the days CadetFakeBoneSpurs tweets Its rebounds higher on days he doesn't tweet Can't wait for Dems to take the house & stop the TrumpShutdown It's gonna feel like Christmas again! realDonaldTrump REsigntRump TrumpResign MAGA Democrats

Winning AmericaFirst

peterbakernyt Trump manipulating the stock market with tweets...check his family stock buys in the past few days...

The Plunge Protection Team at work.

MAGA

Computers needs calibration very soon.

peterbakernyt Because the president left the Country!

Look at all the “professional investers” commenting! LMFAO!

There was a rumour going around Wall Street that trump wasn’t coming back from Iraq

Trumps fault? No probably not .. this is a good thing

You are all full of shit. I’m pretty sure everything is going to be fine.

And who rang the opening bell today!! BadgerFootball AI_XLV

What goes up must come down.

That seems volatile, but let's hope it isn't volatile headed for a magnificent crash.

Every market has s Boxing Day sale! Bargain hunters....

is it back to Obama's economy again libs?

So, let me get this straight, Trump leaves the country and stocks go up?! Hmmmmmm

Amazing what happens when Trump doesn’t tweet something stupid

I’m confused now. Who should we thank? Obama or Trump?

Has trump tweeted it being down to him yet?

No it’s because people were buying low.

The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy.

It's almost like the president is purposefully tanking the market with his crazy bullshit. Who does this benefit? Follow the money.

Where’s Obama to take credit?

Sell on the up tick because Dow has only one way to go over the next while and that is down. There will be good days but many more bad days.

Still didnt make up for all the losses

what happened the 1% feared their tax cut would vanish so they all started buying again? Remember, the “little people” do not have much invested...

'Reflex rally'

That market isn’t right yet. Got a long way to go.

Liberals be like......Lol...I'd give my right arm for 6 more years of a Liberal stroke causing Trump Presidency.

The Market seems to like it when Trump is overseas. Maybe we can find him a permanent home over there.

Why don't you maniac Liberals get some advice from fellow Liberal Paul Krugman about the stock market. After all, his October 2016 prediction was so out of whack, you guys should feel comfortable.

Yeah......this doesn’t seem normal. I think we are heading for a crash.

It will tank again

Biggest 1 day gain after weeks of back and forth, everyone should be adjusting their 401k for a crash.

Market down, market up all manipulated.... a scam indeed

It'll be back down tomorrow, or the next day. Trump's policies are gonna tank the economy. Count on it!

big deal. billions have been wiped away.

We definitely needed a day like this after the free fall

Big boys at work- buy low

Seems like a totally healthy and normal thing for a market to do.

The president has done it again!

Trump left the country and the market surges? That can't be coincidence.

There you go friends; proof that calming TF down is often the smart move.

TRUMPiCANS 🇺🇸

Surprise, and just when realDonaldTrump is out of the Country. Coincidence? Boy, we could sure use a wall now.

Markets are manic mirroring our incompetent leader

BREAKING. The Dow jumped from Sucking to Sucking less in an aggressive trading day on Wall Street. Trump was quoted as saying: ‘No President has ever gone from Suck to Suck Less faster than me’

And all it took was getting the orange one out of the country! 😂

Trump will take credit but when it goes down the next days, he'll blame the federal reserve.

Ooooh, did his plane get shot down?

Must be because the Democrats took the house.

Because of the holidays.

jcoralpark Bet that hurt you to say

realDonaldTrump should leave the USA more often

Nothing to watch here folks🙄🤔

MAGA

Of course, trump hasn't tweeted in 24 hours.

That is a really odd headline, , given that DJI is still 1000+ points down from less than a week ago.

Trouble ahead

gailtalk this can't be..according to SenSchumer and NancyPelosi, realDonaldTrump is plunging country into chaos!!

Here comes the popping of a bubble.

Is this trump’s fault too or only when bad stuff happens? I can’t keep it straight.

Sell high, buy low... The trillion dollar tax break game of shells. Ripping off America with inside trading.

That much instability cant be good..

Because Trump left the country? No tweets? He’ll be on Twitter soon to take credit for a “record” increase “larger than any other president” in history. Will still claim Fed is trying to sabotage his economy to keep options open.

China news

Look at Tokyo, the Canadian markets, and see who made the best gains. They're the ones with the insider intel. Ooh it's just business, it's not me, and a dozen more answers. Someone might take the fall, but the real culprits just laugh, boast, ridicule, and leave Scott free.

Short covering. Aka dead cat bounce from oversold levels. Technicals matter when algo machines run much of the market, designed to sell and buy on specific pivots. 200 day support was the newest key level to bounce off of. It might not stay above that support level very long.

The up and down, down, down, then up....is this supposed to be comforting Cause this kind of rise makes me think this was manipulated.

Totally crazy behavior and I do not trust for a minute this is legit.

When the only direction you can go is up ⬆️

What does the volatility mean?

Thank you President Trump !!!

Fishy business: markets were agitated, stocks down sting, now stocks bounce back in less than 2 days (of which one was a holiday) with record gain...investigation needed on who’s making money out of all of this! (Guess who...)

What the hell, is going on?

Trump is still president but now the morons use the 'reasoning' that it's because he's out of the US for a day. I dislike Trump but these liberals are beyond help. They dislike reality and they will keep loosing for that and other reasons.

Tomorrow is a new day!

I think the market stabilized because the Twittler in Chief is out of the country and noticeably quiet on Twitter. Amazing what happens when he shuts his big dumb pie hole

But, but, but, Trump's economy is collapsing.

The stock market is just doo-doo!

Sometimes it’s good not to pull out!

So we're now a nation of day traders? That should create financial stability...in all other markets.

That guy on FoxNews this AM asking for 1,000 point gain. Guess he was right

BirdsNetsDevils you called it

Cool. Still down 2000 points from a year ago.

Not seeing the liberals blaming Trump for this pump up? Interesting they only blame him for the bumps in the road.

Just as soon as realDonaldTrump left the country. Let that be a lesson to you gop.

Fishy!

We all know what happens with a 'vault.' UP then DOWN.

PaulBegala 😝

Nice!

AmericasImpetus We should have all bought in like Trump told us.

Stocks surge!.... To where they were Friday at noon... Lol we've netted zero points gained in 2.5 trading days.

Doesn't pass the smell test. Seems as if a lot of rich people were more than ready to buy low.

Is this because a certain someone has left the country?

So. Tax break, stock buy back, stocks grow, stocks sell. Stocks drop, then you buy more of them back with the same money, stocks bounce in biggest gain ever. Brilliant. Meanwhile deregulate, don't investigate.

Cc JohnnyFocal🤔 The truth is, the stock market is not a good indicator of the underlying strength of the Economy. It was dumb of Trump to claim any credit for the upswing. That being said though, the underlying dynamics of the real Economy is sound,now that's the Trump effect.

Because they're faking the numbers to make trump look better.

yea this is real stable.

Nice day. The market has been going straight up for 10 years. People need to relax with the overreactions

Liberals can go back to saying it’s Obama‘s economy again

trump will undoubtedly take credit for it where he didn’t take any for its downturn. typical

If your personal success & stability depends on who’s in power, you plebs are total failures in life.

Liberals Yesterday: 'Trump's ruining the economy!' Liberals today: 'it's surging because Obama'

Financial Crash Coming?

A one day surge like that CAN’T be normal. 🤨

Paging Jay Powell! I’m sure he’s got a remedy for that!!

Why. Nothing change؟؟؟؟!!!!!

this isn't stable

after weeks of blaming Trump for stock market decline, cue Obama taking credit and the usual media chorus backing him up

see what happens when donnie leaves the white house?

MAGA is soo much FUN

The one day Trump is out of the country and not tweeting, the market surges . . .

Who is getting richer during all of this?

'bout freakin' time

Keep it going because there are massive losses to recoup!
