Donald and the Dow - Fail!

I thought this was Obama's economy.

The economy is Trump's when it goes up, he owns it going down.

Please explain how a pandemic is "trumpanomics"

Simple. The graph exhibits Wall Street's faith that the President can handle the current pandemic.
I would think you would have grasped that from the picture.

False. The graph depicts the market attempting to price the fallout from a pandemic.

Using your logic, other indexes, say DAX, which is also down, is saying that Merkle can't handle the current pandemic.

I am willing to bet you don't apply your reasoning consistently.

"The graph depicts the market attempting to price the fallout from a pandemic."

And since they don't trust President Idiot, they are moving their money into bonds.
Wall Street doesn't believe in Trump.

So Wall Street also must believe Merkel, Trudeau, Xi Ping, Boris Johnson, are all idiots

You said it.
I just think Trump is "King of the Idiots"

Okay, you think Trump is an idiot. Got it. But that doesn't prove your assertion that the market is reacting to Trump and not the pandemic.

Markets react to uncertainty. Trump is offering none. He complains about the Europeans response but can't come up with a solution of his own. Typical.

Yes, markets react to uncertainty, but the uncertainty is coming from the pandemic and its fallout. There is very little any Government could do to stop the transmission of the virus, and its the uncertainty about what the economic impact will be that is causing the indexes to decline.

"He complains about Europeans response"...well since THEY HAVE THE MAJORITY OF NEW INFECTIONS...that makes sense. HAHAHAHA. Italy just f**king quarantined their entire country. They have 631 deaths, 977 NEW cases, and over 10,000 confirmed cases.

"There is very little any Government could do to stop the transmission of the virus"

Scientists disagree with you.

Nearly all virologist sited are recommending personal hygienics to limit the spread. Government cannot mandate hand washing, you effing moron.

Yup. What's your point?

That Donald is a better idiot?

My point is obvious, but it does tend to allude those who don't walk around upright.

March 12- down to 21,522.77 , 2000 lower!
It's all about the economy, Stupid!

The Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled 1,726 points, or 7.35 percent, at the open while the Nasdaq Composite slid 7 percent.
And the coronvirus will be down to zero,
MARCH 5, 2020 Trump has repeatedly downplayed the potential for the coronavirus to spread throughout the U.S., even suggesting without scientific evidence that the number of cases would soon decrease. At the same news conference, Trump said the number of cases "within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero. That's a pretty good job we've done." "We're going very substantially down, not up," Trump added.
