some are.....the why is b/c DJT has beaten his chest over this one.....

I'm with aTx......he needs to simply stfu relative to the market.....

when one is responsible for building an economy based on solid economic fundamentals it's much better to tout the 'why', vs pumping to the pom-pom chant that will trigger preset selling algorithms....

Agree. The markets are depend on the economy and not the other way around.

that's the shite that makes the lay person nervous......it's unnecessary......

I'd love to sit down with his arse for an hr and shoot the shite with a few jabs and pokes.....

if he would simply clean up just a bit of the 3rd grade rhetoric......

ol' boy is what he is......I easily still take him over ANY of the alternatives offered every fk'n day of the week and the eighth one.....

he's like the guy in the spelling bee that never misses until "cat" returns "kat".....he's the "oopsy, I screwed that one up....don't do it again" feller....

he's our goofy bastage.....I think he's perfect in the setting and continually driving agenda like no other modern era president ever has.....

he took 'em all on and is continually kicking their balls down their throat.....

Just a side thought & not connected to the topic - algorithms sounds eerily similar to AlGore-ism's. Meh, I guess he did invent the internet, maybe he came up with the algorithms as well??

Buy on the dips.....

Anxiously awaiting Hannity pinning this on Obama again.

I still think we have more room to the downside. I still think we flirt with the 200 day moving average on the S&P.....2538....another 1.6%

58 S&P stocks are in Bear market territory....20% or more below their 52-week high.

Let the losses of the idiots unwinding their volatility trades be your gain.

Automated trading is a dangerous thing, but creates opportunities.

Gotta' love Drudge

time to buy!

Verizon seems like an interesting stock for holding for a couple of years at this point.

Its been a week already but it hard to remember that 10 year treasury rates started this whole thing. Then the Vol shorts got obliterated and their margin calls hurt us for a day. Yesterday was about the 10 year treasury again. That's not going to stop anytime soon. It will go up to 3 and beyond soon. I still think this correction has some time to run.

SPX just bounced off the 200 day Moving Average. Awesome.

There is still one more margin sell off before market closes. I hope that 2535 can hold.
