If I said what I really feel I would probably be banned from this board forever.

It was really executively Obama 3.0 with the country running on autopilot. Meanwhile the greatest pilot in the world(TM) who was sitting in 1st Class barged into the cockpit and is now pulling levers and pressing switches. Prepare for crash landing.

The thing is Trump is only in it for himself any bonus that accrues to the American working MAGA man will be by accident rather than design. The good news is that he is destroying the American finances and their standing in the world and I can't see that not impacting the dollar , and the more impoversihed the US is the les able it will be able to finance endless wars and Israel - indeed he just stuck 17% on Israel much to their consternation. So I for one am cheering on the destruction. Keep up the good work Donnie - it's like a toddler walking into a bar on the dark side with a loaded gun.

That scared look you see on many of the faces of the newsreaders is the knot in their stomachs as they see their acquired wealth torched by the insane orange clown. The free MAGA ride troll is over and the crazy cost of voting this idiot into power is becoming starkly clear.

If andy MAGIdiots here have pension funds , stocks or an interest in the strength of the dollar I applaud your sacrifices on the altar of Trumpism so that maybe , just maybe the US economy may turn around in 5 years or more. But I'm afraid it will be neither - he will destroy your wealth along with your country.

what would be historic fair value for the dow jones without QE as a % of it's current value ChatGPT said: That’s a super interesting (and big!) question — trying to strip out the effects of Quantitative Easing (QE) from the Dow Jones to estimate a kind of "organic" or "historic fair value" is tricky, but we can reason through it. TL;DR: Estimates vary widely, but some analysts argue the Dow could be 30–50% lower without QE, putting a rough "historic fair value" at 50–70% of its current level. So if the Dow is around 39,000 (as of early 2025), its QE-free fair value might be in the range of 19,500 to 27,300. I'll buy in at half price - went very long physical gold at the start of the Ukraine war on the basis that peer proxy wars by nuclear superpowers are very bad news indeed and let's take Trump's Main Street not Wall Street at face value then he will let stocks slide and what goes bust goes bust rather than a liquidity QE stick save.

Jim Cramer has said don't panic - you all know what that means.

MAGA bill incoming !!

The Black Swans are coming....

1929 is on the line with a call.....

Ben Shapiro has turned anti-Trump

Michael Wolff made a brilliant comment that basically you have to realise that Trump is insane and hasn't a clue of what he is doing and the US electorate handed him the keys to a nuclear reactor control room. Which he is now playing with pushing levers to see what they do ! Boardrooms of the world and government's have only one hope Get Trump.
