Do you understand what is being posted?


Is it possible that you do not understand what you're saying? For instance- value is not profit or loss until you sell and make or lose money on the sale. Market value is speculation until it is factual,  results from an actual transaction.


I remember sitting with a colleague who was bemoaning the economy in 2008 and the 'loss of value' in his portfolio. I reminded him that he suffered no loss until he sold for less than the purchase price.


 


 


The value of stocks within the market are around 97 trillion.


Cite your source. What is 'value' outside an actual transaction?


 


 


Market value increased 20.15 during the year 2020, Trump was the President.


Cite your source for that data. I doubt that "... Market value increased 20.15 " in the year the GDP shrank by 3.4% and a year in which the American unemployment rate set a record and the year the of the most severe economic contraction since the Great Depression. The final year of Trump's presdency...


Perhaps that index was based on the low of the most severe point in that contraction and the recovery in the latter half of 2020? 


 


 


Now this year under Biden the economy and even the market has a failed, the market is in a decline of 20% just this year and going down.


Again, cite your source. Until you sell, there is no profit or loss


Economies are cylic. The Fed and ther central banks work to minimize the effect of the cycles. Further, they are affected by years of economic policies, so Trump's administratiion contributed to the developing contraction.


The 2022/2023 recession hs been predicted for years. The question is how severe the contraction will be the duration, = how long until the economy starts to expand again.


 


Don't you know the country is in a inflationary recession, given to us by Biden.


You ignore the crash under Trump.


You ignore the effects of rhe Fed efforts during the Trump arministration to stumulate the economy.


You ignore the fact that the coming contraction is a direct result of the COVID contraction and the following recovery under both trump and Biden. in The Donald's own words:


“In many cases, I probably identify more as Democrat,” Trump told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer in a 2004 interview. “It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Now, it shouldn’t be that way. But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats. …But certainly we had some very good economies under Democrats, as well as Republicans. But we’ve had some pretty bad disaster under the Republicans.”


 i admire and respect the fact of Trump's rejection of party dogma. Except that he's polluted the "conservative Republican" well by clziming to borh "conservative' and Republican while being neither.  I am not a car even if I am in a garage....
