About fucking time!

It's been a bull market for like 9 damn years now. Was unemployed until a few years ago, and by the the time I was able to save up, it was back to around the "record highs" before the crash and I felt super uncomfortable gambling my savings on it continuing to go up. Been waiting years for a crash or at least correction. If it drops 10% I might actually put some money in stocks. If it drops 20% or more, I almost certainly will.
Right now, even w/ those losses it's still probably near the peak, so still overvalued. The Price to Earnings ratio's been out of control for years now w/ no repercussions....thanks, Federal Reserve :(

Presidents have very little to do w/ stock prices, both when they go up and when they go down. It's the same for D's and R's.

But Trump has clung to the stock prices and economy as his one saving grace for why he's a good president, so it's especially hilarious for a market crash to happen while he's in office.

Ironically the drop is *because* other parts of the economy are suddenly doing very well, such as wage growth which iirc -- and I can't remember the exact time-frame cited on NPR -- is supposedly at the highest it's been in like a decade. In general, the stock market and the economy have no real correlation; or, in fact, an inverse correlation since things like wage growth tend to be tied to overall employment numbers (ie, fewer people looking for jobs, the more you have to pay workers which hurts profits)

Otherwise we're still very far from a market crash.
