Nope. It was true of jobs in general. Trump lost more jobs in a 4-year term than any other President in modern American history.
Worst day of year: Dow down 900 points.

You have nothing on which to base the idea that this market crash is due to DEMOCRATS selling. That makes no sense.
Investors see what's happening - whether they're conservative or liberal.

For anyone who thinks Wall Street & Main Street are disconnected, just watch the next few months if this market slide continues.
Just like Trump's first admin - there are likely to be significant job losses. Businesses cut back when the market plummets like this.

So you read absolutely nothing that I posted? Typical Tbird.
He did tariffs under his first term, dude. It's nothing new. Countries all around the world already tariff the shit out of us; that's nothing new either.
Tbird thinks that a few percentage points is greater than 20.
What about the drop under Trump? What about the gain under Trump? What about the gain under Biden? Did all of those instances also "have a lot to do with COVID"?
... due to Democrat governors shutting down their states.

No you don't. See below.
Here, you are agreeing with Nordy. So, apparently Wall Street IS "for the rich" after all, eh?
No it doesn't.
No it isn't.
No it doesn't. Business investments are currently through the roof.

Sure I do. Numerous Democrats on this forum have already openly said that they've gotten out of the stock market. I've even heard the same mantra and fear mongering from a Democrat co-worker of mine.
Investors are currently investing in USA business like never before. They seem quite confident of success to me.

Yup, and I wouldn't be surprised if you were one of them. I don't care about it enough to sift through posts though, and Democrats just deny their own posts anyway.

Dow was 43487.83 on the day Trump took over not even 2 months ago and is at 40890.75 down 2597.25 points.
Yes all in less then two months .
Keep it going Trump maybe we can wipe out all the gains we have had in the past two years or so.

According to MAGAts and other crazies, "Democrats" are anyone who isn't a member of the Cult of the Orange Jesus.

That's not proof of anything - regardless. I'm sure Dems are selling, just like every other investor.

It depends. Selling when the bottom falls out of a market goes against the philosophy of "buy low, sell high". Shifting funds to something more conservative for now and then move them back when things are looking up is a safer bet.
As it is, I'm fully retired and don't have 10-15 years to ride out a self-induced economic storm so I'd previously moved all my stuff into a moderate conservative fund. Still, I'm down several thousand in "paper money", but will simply ride out the storm.
I turned 69 earlier this year and had pulled out $20K when the market was high for "fun money" since "you can't take it with you". Now I'm thinking of sending 10-15K back if the market looks like it'll go back up....which I think it will when Trump buckles and stops the nonsense.

This is sort of a wasteful discussion - but no, what you're posting above is not accurate. You said the market was crashing because of Democrats pulling out. It's everyone - it's not just Democrats.
As to the market not being an indicator or related to the economy - that's simply ridiculous. Just watch over the next few months.
