Believe it or not, those words were first used to describe reganomics before regan won his party nom by G.H.W. Bush in the primary run off.
LOL

Hey, we all knew the market was over priced, and part of that pricing was justified by those tax breaks, but they are temporary. Any return from that to shareholders in the form of stock buyback is over. the rest will go to CEO's and the board members.

When the dust settles, the dow will probably land around 17k-19k. Not that it might sink more before it settles. That assumes nobody does any more harm.
We can hope for a soft landing.
Trump's thin skin and inflated ego made him start a big bad tariff war and fucked the economy hard by increasing the cost of business & creating instability in every market.

Shameful

Everything was great until Trump started the tarriff war.
