They voted for red so they got red

Maybe this is it?

Like I bought into my current house mortgage at $500k. Now I've seen a few houses down the road finish building... Mid city in Kenmore WA, for 2.4million. Okay great! I can barely afford my place, how can anyone dream of getting into a 2.4 million dollar house if they're not the CEO of something or another? My neighborhood has a mechanic, a teacher, a juice maker, a nurse. Like that's the people here and they don't have 2.4million. Their kid's kid's might one day buy a school book for 2.4 million and look at how cheap houses were today. But not us, now.

So is this it? Does the market caput and the government just pays off all our loans in a big reset moment? Then everyone starts selling their house back to reasonable money like 200k or 300k?

You misspelled “then giant companies buy up all the housing on the cheap and everyone continues to be miserable”

LOL I got poor grammar.

[-] kiagam@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

You will not own anything and you will like it.

No wonder everything is a subscription.

[-] stoicmaverick@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago

What about that little green guy there? What's he getting up to?

[-] LorIps@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

It's probably MKTX which had some interesting stock performance this year. https://www.google.com/finance/quote/MKTX:NASDAQ

[-] asg101 8 points 6 days ago

Party like its 1929... going on 1939.

[-] UltraBlack@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Who's that green idiot?!

[-] Justas@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 days ago

Liberation of value from the investors day

[-] glowing_hans@sopuli.xyz 8 points 6 days ago

This 2025 stock market crash is the new great leap forward for the U.S., but this time Americans are still well fed.

[-] match@pawb.social 5 points 6 days ago

well, everything except eggs

[-] glowing_hans@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah and maybe some homeless addict starved in the street I presume

[-] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

So it sort of opened to a +3% roughly this morning. Is that just a dead cat bounce as people try and catch the falling knife?

[-] Baguette@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

Give it a month or so until tariffs are fully incorporated into daily costs

Then we're in for a ride

[-] Aux@feddit.uk 5 points 6 days ago

In the last century 63 years had 10% crashes. This image shows that literally nothing is happening.

[-] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 25 points 6 days ago

that's a good argument senator, why don't you back it up with a source?

[-] Aux@feddit.uk 3 points 6 days ago

Did you know that Google shows you historical stocks and shares data when doing a related search?

If googling is too hard for you, then you can watch a video here https://youtu.be/3PxqwZcTpc0 It references each and every source.

[-] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 29 points 6 days ago

your video is about the FTSE global all cap index which isn't very helpful for a conversation about the US economy?

Did you know that Google shows you historical stocks and shares data when doing a related search?

yeah, google showed me you were wrong as fuck so i wanted to give you a chance to demonstrate otherwise

[-] Aux@feddit.uk 2 points 6 days ago

The video is about the stock market in general.

[-] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

maybe watch your 'source' before you link it next time lol.

[-] Aux@feddit.uk 2 points 6 days ago

Maybe you watch it. My god, the ignorance...

[-] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

clueless

there is no such thing as a 'general stock market', are you 12? the video is about a specific global index fund and could not be less relevant to an image of american stocks being blood red. aside from covid, the last time we had a drop this bad was the 80s. i was willing to believe you were just dumb or misinformed but you clearly don't have an ounce of good faith in you.

[-] Aux@feddit.uk 2 points 6 days ago

Are you high?

[-] Doesnotexist@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Every stock market is different.
China markets have a 90 minute lunch mid day. South Korea prohibits short selling (Thailand now too). Taiwan charges 30 bps for overnight positions.
The nasdaq will become 24 hours soon .

There’s no such thing as a general market. They’re very diverse.

JDPON Don fulfilling his duty to the Global South by tanking the US Empire from within 🫡

[-] Doom@ttrpg.network 1 points 5 days ago

so what do you buy is the question

[-] RepleteLocum 1 points 5 days ago

You bet against them going up. If they go down then your money goes up. (Idk if it’s a good idea currently tho, as it’s quite unpredictable if they’ll keep going down(depends on trumps actions))

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Wait so you guys spend years complaining about companies having unrealized gains

And when these start to reduce, you freak out?

Weren't you the eat the rich croud?

You should be happy about this

[-] CanadianCarl@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 days ago

Are these only U.S. companies?

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Oh sorry, you guys never specified which country were the rich croud you wanted to eat from

[-] lost_screwdriver@thelemmy.club 1 points 6 days ago

To be fair: companies should not focus on maximizing their stock value or work for some investors. They should focus on delivering the best product for the best price. For quite some time, especially in the US, the product of the most companis were just their shares. The best one just made the most money for it's investors. Trump finally fixes that. Also he really does some for the small people: Stocks are not a way to got rich, but a way to stay riwh - if the stock market outperforms the economic growth rich people get even more rich, poor people get more poor! Only rich people have money to spare to invest

[-] anachrohack@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

ACKTCHUALLY the collapse of the American economy is a good thing ☝️🤓

[-] hddsx@lemmy.ca 62 points 1 week ago

Hey there’s still the one green hold out

[-] gnutrino@programming.dev 43 points 6 days ago

I believe that would be MarketAxess (MKTX) which largely deals in bonds AFAIK. Given that bonds are the traditional safe haven asset when traders see the market shitting the bed, them doing well isn't necessarily the best sign for overall market health...

[-] AwkwardBroccolli@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 days ago

Berkshire Hathaway?

[-] notsure@fedia.io 45 points 1 week ago
[-] PlaneMaker@feddit.org 19 points 6 days ago

We are already tired of winning

[-] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 17 points 1 week ago

Soon we’ll be red and dead

[-] bruhduh@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Well... Let's hope for redemption

[-] ViscloReader@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Wait, I like that name, is it time for a redemption?

[-] callouscomic@lemm.ee 1 points 6 days ago
