@Horace said in stock market:
as a percentage, covid crash was 28% for the nasdaq. Which is almost exactly the loss as of today, from the previous high 6 months ago.
Seems like this dip is lasting longer than the one in 2020.

I kinda see the rather rapid recovery of the 2020 dip as an anomaly.

COVID crash was 5 weeks. This one has been a 5.5 month slow bleed so far.
Yup. The COVID drop was way worse, because…faster. I feel like this will be a mini version of the late 70s early 80s. Probably won’t take 5-8 years to recover but maybe a good 1-3 years. I’m ready to convert some accounts into “aggressive” mode to take advantage of the rebound but honestly I think this is just bringing us back to the 200 day moving average and then some. Almost like bringing us back before the big COVID rally.

Inflation would be here, but maybe not as bad. Don’t think there would have been a third round of stimulus. Might not be Ukraine war either. Hard to say.

Hard to say - Trump wanted much bigger stimulus checks in Dec 2020.
Ukraine war - maybe? Trump is so unpredictable that Putin might have seen his response as too much of an X factor.
That said - I don’t know how important America’s potential response was in Putin’s calculus.

Inflation in the UK is currently 9%. It can't be BoJo's fault - after all, they call him Britain Trump!

@Doctor-Phibes Shhhhhh!
That does not fit the narration that President Biden is responsible for the inflation that is going around the world.

I don't believe anyone has said Biden is solely responsible for inflation. Pretty much everyone has said there would be inflation if Trump had been re-elected.
What folks have said is that Biden's policies have not helped tamp inflation down and, in some cases, have exacerbated it.
If you want to misconstrue that as some kind of anti-Biden narrative, that says more about your own narrative than anyone else's.
However, as with all presidents, many will hold him responsible for it in the upcoming elections.

No, it doesn't. But in politics, perception is reality. Few people care what's going on elsewhere,
particularly in BoJo land.All they see is that they're spending thousands more per year on gasoline, food and utilities.As @jon-nyc pointed out, the Trump "stimulus" certainly might have lit the fire during COVID back in 2020, but no one will see that. They only see the here and now. And less than a quarter of the country sees things going in the right direction.

Saw some polling numbers on Hispanics last night. The bottom has fallen out of Biden's support among that group.
Interesting...
