I don't believe that we are out of the market struggles, and it is taking all my self control to not buy some early 2023 SPY puts

assuming a recession, you're probably right.  20-25% decline is about the minimum according to this historical accounting of bear markets and especially those that are coupled with a recession.

there are a lot of 30-35% declines in that list even when you discard the 50%+ ones.

S&P is already down roughly 20% and the Nasdaq is down 30% from the highs.  Sure they can both go lower, but there is probably more upside than downside at this point provided you don't need the cash for a year or two.

we're rallying back like 2016 cleveland cavs 😤😤😤

I'm sorry you're poor and cant afford to invest and have disposable income at the same time.

You need better bootstraps I guess.

Oh it's fairly obvious that at no point in your posting attempts are you going for substance. There is a bit of nuance to being an asshole though. You might get it one day.

Market up 3% and people want to find something to pick fights about. 

I will say that seeing 3% swings up is nice, but makes me know we aren't out of this. "Healthy" markets don't rise/fall 3% in a day.

3% down followed by 3% up puts you at -0.09% net 😬

He doesn’t know what anything that doesn’t fit in a gif means.

 

 Seriously, even the gifs seem like a bad AI is picking.

 

 Just ignore and move on, life is too short for low quality trolls.  I don’t agree with lots of people on here but vapid is not worth it.

Please don’t quote him. That’s actually the worst thing about surly, because it spoils the satisfaction of ignoring someone.

So we're down 2% because job numbers were good, which means the Fed will continue raising rates driving us to recession... yet oil is up to $90 per barrel. 

Which is it?

Job market is too good, which means the economy is bad, which means that the FED has to hike rates and punish the markets until enough people lose their jobs to make the economy good again. 

I think that's it, right?

I've seen estimates that up to 75% of the market volume these days are just automated algorithmic trades. Who the fuck knows what those propeller heads that build these models are keyed in on, but these large 2% swings aren't because a bunch of retail traders are carefully parsing economic data and trading accordingly. 

Oil is an artificial cartel-controlled market with monopoly power. The oil market is not a free market. Quaint free market notions of price competition do not apply. Invest accordingly. 
 

The Fed is looking for demand destruction via unemployment. The Fed hopes more unemployment will increase the supply of available workers, which will force workers to accept lower wages (price competition). The Fed expects lower wages and increased unemployment will suppress demand.
 

The Fed desperately wants markets to believe there is no Fed backstop (the “Fed Put”) for financial markets this time. The question of whether the Fed Put (brrrt) still exists remains an open question.

No economist knows what to suggest or what road to go down because workers have the chips on their side and they haven’t learned fuck-all about that in their entire academic existence.

A lot of you are really and truly bitch ass pussies.  I hope y’all are letting your wives handle your finances / portfolios.
