Just like in his first term, the Dotard will once again manipulate and use the Wall St casino for his pump and dump schemes.

Good luck to anyone putting their hard earned cash into that corrupt shit show of a "market".

The best buy indicator I've found, the most bulletproof, is when random posters in the backroom begin bawling doom and gloom on the market.
It never fails to create gainzzz!

I bought the fear today and will continue in tranches for the rest of the week.

Going for broke.

Good on you.

One particular poster here, on this thread too, has been bawling for the last 20 years of an impending and complete market collapse.
Needless to say the market has more than quadrupled in that time.

Can't disagree that prices coming down is a good time to buy...but I am betting they come down more

I wasn't referring to him. No one pays attention to that low-value poster.
Leave him be with his choochoo trains and dolly houses.

Some of y'all got wiped out by the Wall St casino during the Dotard's first term and y'all lining up to get wiped out again?

Einstein was right: "The universe and stupidity are infinite". lol

Wall Street is much like gambling. Nobody should place money they don't have.

Money under the mattress comes with risk as well.

When I was in law school our contracts and remedies prof was an old Jewish lawyer.

I'll never forget what he said to us one day after class - the Jews have a saying "no man is poor who owns land".

Good luck and happy gambling to y'all at the Wall St casino.

Nutting wrong with owning a piece of the earth, but casinos operate for good reason.

There's a reason why the house always win - unless the house is run by the Dotard in which case it goes bankrupt. lol

Never bought T Bills. Matter of fact, I know nothing about them.

Currently, what is the 1 year yield?

The Dotard is able to scam the system and write it all off.

That's the only place I'll ever invest my money in the stock market casino.

Why deposit your money in the bank when you can use it to own the bank - and which are protected by the Canadian Federal gov't!
