    You got me. I just glanced at the graph and didn’t look close enough to see it was clearly tens of points lower. Head for the hills.

      Yeah, facts matter, if you assert that it’s been mostly higher most of the day you better back that crap up with facts. Don’t need your alternative facts here.

        Alternative facts try to spin the truth. I made an error. The intent of the original post still stands, the title is both old and the usual exaggerated, as most stock news is. The current headlines are using the word “recover”, as if to highlight that things went terribly south. It’s all a damn game.

          Can’t disagree with your last point at all. It certainly seems like a bullshit game rigged to fleece the regular people. Anyone who tried to follow what these "experts"were doing in reacting to President dementia, would be losing their money thinking they were doing the right things. Meanwhile I’m sure the market “recovered” for the rich folk who sold after hours and then bought when things crashed this morning.
