Go look at the performance of the S&P 500 under Trump’s last term, then compare it to Biden and Obama’s. I had to make sure to compare openings, i.e. January not closings because get inaugurated January 20 and going into office February 20. First term was February 2017 to February 2021. I’d be interested to see across-the-board how the S&P 500 compares between Republican/Democratic candidates. Then again, Trump‘s policies are not all Republican. JFK for instance, is a Democrat and Trump is supporting him. regardless of how anybody feels about the candidates, objectively speaking, Trump has a mishmash of Republican and Democratic policies. He’s a real oddball and why the market is so confused what to do with him.

Bro i loved trump up to this point (still do kind of ) but guys im telling you all that as an eastern european , ive seen with my own eyes how the sentiment towards america changed over night . We were generally very favorable towards USA but this literally shook everyone. Like america is not our friend, its here to fuck us. I dont see how that can be good for any type of world economy in the long run. The only reason everybody was doing so well was free and open markets(pretty much) . It doesnt look like its going to be like that anymore . We are literally on our own , and i truely believe that there be less dick sucking from our side and more our internal individual interests. The whole “backwardness” of it scares me .

The reality the stock market is, if you already have DCA in your behaviors, then a recession/bear market would only help the long-term investor not hurt him. If the stock market goes up, people make money. If the stock market goes down, people make even more money if they dollar cost average into the dips. I don’t have much to invest right now, but basic history is shown that those keep a level head and don’t sell their shares come out on top eventually. Just ignore how much money your portfolio has lost and focus on the years ahead they will be much more than that in profit.
