    This says something when the president is causing so much upheaval that they actually have have created a way of measuring it

    Interesting read.... let me know when somebody creates the volpeachment index and when it hits 100%...

    (Yet) another reason to vote for Joe Biden... I don't believe he abuses his Twitter privileges and thus doesn't need to be sent to his room without his phone like a 12 year old...

    Agreed

    But it is troubling that he has managed to destabilise the markets to such a degree

    Very troubling... I have the great majority of my assets in the market... I've edged safer and safer once I got over 55, but everything is still dependent on the market...

    Watching Trump attempt to ruin a solid market run just reminds me of one of my favorite sayings from the show Frazier

    "If 'Less is more', imagine how much more MORE would be"?

    In other words, stop ****ing around with my retirement!

    Lol. I can picture the typical conservative response. “Who is this JP Morgan and if he is so smart why isn’t he president?”

    Well, at least they cannot claim he's an anonymous source..... Although he's hiding his full name behind those initials.... Why? What's he trying to hide?
