No they didnt. They didnt even recover. The DOW was still down last time I checked this morning. They had a small bulb from the announcement but that doesnt mean its all good. Investments are not coming back here with this motherfucker flipping every 3 seconds. Factories are not coming back. We had an alright thing going on, it was far from perfect, but it was far from destitute. Thats never coming back.

Dow Jones Average was up by almost 3000 points or 8%. That is in fact a massive spike and in no way does this look natural. It was Donald's pals robbing everyone else on the stock market. You're right about the market volatility, who in their right mind would even dare to strategize with the usual 3-4 years when you don't even know what the next 3-4 hours bring?

Oh shit it actually did climb partially back up. Straight up vibes machine.

Thats the real issue though, the volatility. You can't put trust in the US like this. No investments, no factories, no jobs.

Does anyone still believe this isn't all a short-selling scam?

[–] TommySoda@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It's not even as high as it was last week.

[–] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago

Year to date it's down ~4%

[–] huppakee@lemm.ee 16 points 4 days ago

Numbers can be misleading. If you have 100 points and you lose 50% you have 50 points left. If you then gain 50% you don't go back to your original amount but to 75 points. In other words high percentual gains is not the same as a full recovery. I'm no expert, but I believe that in general the way down is usually much steeper than the way up on the stock market.

Volatility giveith and volatility taketh away.

[–] DrDickHandler@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

A huge upward spike is still volatility. Don't comment on stuff you don't know.

[–] theotherbelow@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 4 days ago

What? I didn't comment in either direction In fact I specifically stated "volatility giveth".
