Thank you for showcasing me the lack of the average financial literacy. The thing is: retirement funds can't readjust their investment strategies the way private investors can. They live and die by the market. And markets will be falling, today is nothing compared to what's to come.

if you think looking at a small snapshot (i.e., a few days) is in any way a reasonable way to handle investing, you have no business investing for yourself, or giving others investment advice. retirement funds should not be readjusting anything, private investors should not be readjusting anything, in light of what has happened today. to do so is folly and people will only lose money. stay the course.

there is a great quote (paraphrased): there are two kind of people, those who know they cant predict the market, and those who dont know they cant predict the market. your statement that "today is nothing compared to what's to come" is completely useless. i hope no one is foolish enough to believe your doom and gloom, or worse, act on it.

Oh, please, it might not have occured to you, but that's the losing strategy in the bear market, lol.



Uhhhhh if you're doing any adjusting it should be to buy more tomorrow. Otherwise you will be perfectly executing the buy high- sell low strategy.

to be fair, you should also be tax loss harvesting, but i dont really consider that an adjustment if you are actually doing it correctly.

i dont know ForTehDarkseid, but i am 105% sure he/she is not qualified to give investment advice.

God forbid me giving private investment advices. I am talking about retirement funds practices of minimizing risks. If you don't see the difference, the joke is on you and everyone who thought electing a shady pres who doesn't even acknowledge what's the blind trust is, and has 500 bn debt to pay out to Chinese banks was a good idea.

We're missing a lot of the liberal regulars, not that I blame them. I'd be half way up a scotch bottle if my candidate had lost to a guy whom I considered to be an utter buffoon and crass joke of a candidate.

I admit to having ducked out of my election-watching party to get a bottle of scotch because the drinks there weren't doing it for me.

i think you intend to say pension fund, not retirement fund. because my retirement funds (401k, Roth IRA and brokerage account) are all private investments.

and my brokerage firm has already addressed this issue, and believe me, they say ignore you.

CA still dumping votes into the Hillary column. I'm curious to see if I'll get at least something right this election.

She apparently conceded to Trump privately, she just didn't give a speech.

She did. She's making her speech this Wednesday, but she's already conceded to Trump.

Guess it wasn't a great idea to nominate the walking embodiment of the establishment during the biggest anti-establishment wave we've ever seen.

Reckon this unheard music Shrekli has will be any good?

If Trump wins, my entire unreleased music collection, including unheard Nirvana, Beatles, and of course, Wu-Tang, comes out, for free.

Yeah, Trump is going to have the whole party in his pocket.

That's what happens when you run your campaign on a "atleast i am not a nutjob".

By the way, i earned a 6month ban from a banbet with GGtemplar. So mods, show me the hammer.

The fact that most of the so called good and educated ppl are thinking these are the core reasons of Trump's elections is why the far right wing is so strong.
You should look over the inequality, the crisis, the social conditions who become more and more difficults.The absolutely contempt that the white trash receive, the way there are treated at works, under the constant threat of losing their jobs with less and less rights to defend it, the way workers are treated is just horrible.
But hey, you can keep being smug and blind, there are no problems about that, anything that the international bourgeoisie dislikes seems friendly to me and I am not the only one apparently.
2005 french referendum
2015 greece referendum
2016 Brexit
2016 Trump election
And I feel like this is just a beginning. You will manage to invalidate the brexit but that would not stop the processus. A more social and equal economical policy? Yeah, it would but billionaires already pay too much taxes right?
Maybe you should start ask to question this world outside the community aspect.

By the way, even if Trump has nothing to do with the working class, he manages to incarnate himself as an opponent of the globalisation, that's the thing.

The fuck are going on about I'm just looking out for my LGBT friends, especially the trans ones who deal with way too much bullshit already and don't need people saying transphobia isn't a "malign effect"

Pretty sure KwarK has to ban himself too. Will he follow through or not, that is the question.
