I lost $10k in the past 36 hours.

Is this making us great?

Sorry for your loss.

I don't follow my 401k daily, but I'd say that it has lost ~$12k in ~3 days.

Another fun day out there.

The market clearly loves chaos from the top down.

So glad we have the ship being steered by a very stable genius successful businessman!

I think our economy will eventually be overtaken by the Indians/Pakistanis. Those dudes can tear down and repair our 50 year old broken Caterpillar heavy equipment using a few crude hand tools, all while wearing flip flops and pajamas. If they can ever figure out basic PPE and child labor laws, then watch out...

that's not really the issue

I just want to buy shares in stuff and never sell them until I cash them all out someday and die

I can't do that if some fuckwit is playing games with the world economy

yeah I lost $20k today alone. More than $70k over the last few weeks.

It would have been worse, other than I saw it coming and had already taken some profits and positioned myself pretty defensively.

I'm heavily invested in IBM because I'm an employee so I did nicely yesterday on that front but everything else got hammered.

Trump says it is a "transition period."

Yeah, a transition from rich to poor. This is a fire sale. Insider trading on a massive scale.
They plan to crash the economy and buy up what's left.

oh yeah, this was originally in The Lounge but Omar moved it over here 'cause I guess he thought I was talking shit

I was just early but this is about real issues, real money, and real people.

I reckon I don't really know what The Lounge is about because all my threads there get moved here. Chit Chat forever.

That wouldn't be very popular. Trump craves the love of his moronic supporters even though he doesn't respect them at all.

definitely didn't think you were talking shit - you were mindlessly complaining about the stock market going down and offered no real starting point for a meaningful conversation - which is why a thread like this exists in the lounge message_topic.aspx?topic=650908

I had 2 models weigh in to see what they'd say and 4o says the soap box which I'm not sure makes a ton of sense while perplexity says chit chat - I'm sure I could manipulate the prompt to have it select the lounge though

"With the power of LLMs comes the inherent challenge of managing our reliance on them. There is a potential risk of diminishing critical thinking skills if users depend too heavily on AI-generated content without scrutiny. Also, as these models are trained on vast amounts of internet text, they might unknowingly propagate biases present in their training data. Therefore, it is imperative that we approach the adoption of LLMs with a balanced perspective, understanding their subsumed biases and risks and ensuring that they complement human intelligence rather than replace it."

The S&P 500 is not even at correction territory yet (-10% from high). We're getting close though, and not to say we won't get there. But to be fair, your 401(k)s are [currently] fine.

mindlessly, he says

I dunno if y'all watched the last election but "moaning like a pregnant cow about how badly the current president is doing" seems to actually be a winning strategy in this country so I'd say my post was strategic instead of mindless

the only thing that contradicts this claim is that the audience here is less than 10 people and none of them are posting in The Lounge

The Coz Trump isn't in the "they" I'm referring to. I'm talking about Peter Thiel and the technocrats that want to rule America as CEO tyrants. Those weirdos and their shadowy Kremlin backers who brought Russia's useful idiot Trump into the hands of these tech industry traitors. That's the "they."

5,530.10 / 6,147.43 = 0.899579

Checks out! We'll see where we close.

Your 401(k)s are slightly less fine.

We're still riding high thanks to Bidenomics.

$12.42 so far

Box of vella is 15.14 after tax here at total wine and i get $5 off after the 36th box with their rewards program

Did pretty good not drinking from like july-nov. Come to think of it, my alcohol consumption as of late is tangentially related to the election in November

StTexan for what it's worth, I'm proud of you for taking that step -- it's difficult as hell
there are counselors, support groups, medications, self-help books, and more just to make it a little bit easier and there's no shame whatsoever in taking every advantage available to get to where you want to be

I've been on a multi-year journey changing my relationship with alcohol and reckoning with how it impacts my life. DM me if you want to talk about it in private.
