You've got to remember that these are just simple blue collar workers. These are people of the Ohio, common clay of the midwest. You know... Trumpers.

@Thinkerbell I dont confuse the Dow Jones with the state of the nation. It used to bear some relationship. But day trading and short selling have now distorted it so that it has no meaning at all. I get that most people like simple grabs of information that explain everything. But some relationships are just complex and there isnt much to be done..
If you want to pull something out of it that that does shine a light, look at the price of gold. Then look at the P/E ratio of blue chip shares. Every report is breaking records for how long you have to hold a share to earch its cost in dividends. Both of these factors point to people not trusting the $US to keep its value..But thats just one point.
You really need to dig into the import/export imbalance, the budget deficit and the international/overseas debt to arrive at the conclusion that the economic state of the nation is "merde" I have my own thoughts on other facets of US society. But I limit my comments as much as possible to finance..😷

@BiasForAction Certainly. I simply draw the line at trump. Not a shred of worth or common decency does this convicted felon have.

@BiasForAction statism is a binary cult. What an awful post, not human because you have a different opinion/vote for a different political party. Are these people even real? I havent encountered one real person who speaks like this

@MistyCee I agree with you and I blame the society that emerged in the seventies for this not being just a malcontented few..😷
