Seven biggest drops…

[IBDaMann]

And it looks like there could be a lot more losses before this is all over.

Aaaah, the eternal fear-mongering of the left. Do they know nothing else? Can they not see when America suffers from too much winning?

Tired of winning yet?

WOW!!! Just WOW!!!

There goes Veruca misrepresenting data again. How very sad for you Veruca

Kind of hard to "misrepresent" market data... It is what it is.

Judging the market changes by points is idiotic....percentages is the correct metric.

Yes, percentage is a better metric, and of course S&P 500 is far better than the Dow... But this does say something about trump's failure.

Nobody died from COVID.

A lot of people died from Covid.

Can they not see when America suffers from too much winning?

This is not "too much winning."

Well if he has an IRA or a 401 he could be losing a lot of money right now.
This BS is hurting a lot of people and the MAGAS seem to love it until it hits them in the pocketbook.

depends on where you are in your investment timeline. If you are at or near retirement, you should have less exposure to riskier assets. If you are in you 20s, you are fine

I am sure there are a lot of people that would disagree .
I know a couple ,

The Felon bragged about any gains.

What gains?
Dow is down OVER 4000 points since he took office in Jan.
Looks like Trump is GREAT for the economy.

Oh Veruca. Since you are trying to compare the drop in the DOW across all of US history, you must account for the size of the DOW Jones. In order to make it a more reasonable comparison, you should look at the percent drop when comparing across different time periods. With that in mind let's look at the top 7 largest daily drops by percentage in US history

Oh Veruca, you know how so, but I will explain it because I don't mind embarrassing you. Looking at the total number and comparing across time is a misrepresentation because it doesn't take into account the starting point or the overall size of the market during the drop.

To do this right you should look at the one day percentage drop

With that in mind here are the top 7 largest percentage drops in the DOW Jones

1) October 18, 1987 - 22.61% drop Black Monday - global crash
2) October 28, 1929 - 12.82% drop - Start of great depression
3) October 29, 1929 - 11.73% drop - Black Tuesday
4) March 16, 2020 - 12.93% drop - COVID 19 panic selling
5) March 12, 2020 - 9.99% drop - COVID 19 panic selling
6) October 26, 1987 - 8.07% drop - Aftershock of Black Monday
7) March 9, 2020 - Start of COVID 19 related selloff

So when you look at these honestly, the 7 biggest percentage drops centered around three distinct events. The start of the Great Depression, COVID 19 and Black Monday

Now this would have been an honest portrayal of the data if one is an honest broker. So the question then becomes. Are you ignorant of how to honestly present data or were you purposefully being dishonest? Which is it Veruca?

How many of the top 7 were from Biden?

 

[Teflon Don]

How many of the top 7 were from Biden?

Veruca are you now trying to move the goalposts after you got egg on your face? Did I make any claims about Biden? No I didn't and neither did you.

You were trying to run one your usual shit post hit pieces against Trump and it backfired on you once it was pointed out you were using misleading statistics

 

[IBDaMann]

A lot of people died from Covid.

Nope. That's been debunked. Only the incorrigibly gullible refuse to read the memo.

This is not "too much winning."

Yes it is, and even more is on the way. Only incorrigibly pessimistic naysayers refuse to open their eyes and become cognizant of current events.

 

[Jarod]

I am simply using the Felon's tactics. He crowed when Obama's market continued its trajectory in the first few months of his last term. Using his logic its all fair game.

 

[IBDaMann]

But this does say something about trump's failure.

Your TDS will not age well. When Americans are exhausted from too much winning, you will be asked to refresh everyone's memory as to how all of the winning was somehow a failure.

I am looking forward to hearing what you will have to say. I'm sure that a palette of denial and historical revisionism is in store for us all.

 

[IBDaMann]

[Trump] crowed when Obama's market continued its trajectory in the first few months of his last term.

Post the video of this event that never happened.

 

[Teflon Don]

Comparing Presidencies to the extent that you can is fine, misrepresenting statistics to do so is not. So the question still remains. Were you ignorant on how to present data? Did you just not know to account for the size of the DOW over the years? Or did you purposefully try to deceive people thinking nobody would catch on?

Which is it Veruca? This is why you have such little credibility on this board. You actually might have had a point, but you ruined it by misrepresenting the data

 

[Dutch Uncle]

Nobody died from COVID. You must be one of those gullible leftists who got scammed by the fraud.

I have no doubt you truly believe that, son.

 

[Nordberg]

Adjust them for inflation.

Why? Would you consider that if Obama or Kamala were in charge? You know you would not.

 

[T. A. Gardner]

Why? Would you consider that if Obama or Kamala were in charge? You know you would not.

I'd say the same thing.

 

[Walt]

Your TDS will not age well.

With the market crashing, consumer confidence cratering, and our allies turning on us, it is safe to say trump is failing. There is no peace in Gaza or Ukraine. For some reason, trump wanted to build casinos in Gaza, but there are no casinos in Gaza, so that is a double failure.

 

[Nordberg]

I'd say the same thing.

Yes, that-they were the 7th largest drops in history. That is what you would say. You do not discuss to arrive at the truth but to win. You say, whatever you think will help "win".

 

[T. A. Gardner]

I discuss to arrive at the truth and win. Those aren't mutually exclusive.

 

[IBDaMann]

With the market crashing, consumer confidence cratering, and our allies turning on us,

A drop in a market index is not a crash. Do you not know anything?

Consumer confidence is just fine. Trump is getting tariffs eliminated for the US. Investment is pouring into the US. I presume you haven't been paying attention.

Our allies are all still our allies. You don't understand international relations.

it is safe to say trump is failing.

It is safe to say that your lame fear-mongering is failing.

There is no peace in Gaza or Ukraine.

Irrelevant.

For some reason, trump wanted to build casinos in Gaza,

Irrelevant.

Do you have anything relevant? No?

Your fear-mongering will not age well. I'll make sure to remind you.

For the present, Canada, who had been engaging in hugely unfair trade practices for basically ever, will now suddenly eliminate all tariffs against the US. All of them. Zero tariffs for America's products. You've got nothing.
