There seems to be no real sound logic to the current admin's economic decisions. I am not considering short term political moves as logical or helpful

- blunte 8y agoThe guy is a fucking moron, and everyone close to him knows that (and eventually publicly states it after he burns them). I thought this train wreck would be fun to watch, but now I fear that the people who really need to eat crow will probably be dead when the worst of the impact of this experiment in lunacy is over.

- metalliqaz 8y agoI am not shorting the market, that doesn't make sense for my situation, but I am betting against it. Rather than buy shares of stock-based funds, which I consider to be overvalued, I stopped adding cash to my IRA and started sending the money to the mortgage company instead. That way I get a guaranteed 3.75% return. 3.75% may be small compared to the long-term returns of the market, but it's awfully attractive compared to a net negative return on securities that lose value over the next few years.
- vinhboy 8y agoMe too... I sold all my stocks. In the process of deciding what to do with my money to safeguard it against a Trump recession. It hurts to watch the market continue to climb, but I am confident Trump's short-sighted actions will cause pain. Putting my money where my mouth is, as they say.
- redler 8y agoThere’s no real overarching strategy. It’s a mixed bag of fringe denizens exploiting an opportunity, at long last, to roll their hobbyhorses into the game under the aegis of performative cruelty.
