CNN: Dow plunges 1,175 — worst point decline in history

I’ve actually been waiting for this day for a long time.  Not because I like to lose money.  I’m with everyone else.  Today was not a great day for the old portfolio.

But what it IS good for, is that for a period of time now, I don’t have to listen to the trickle-downers tell me how awesome that tax cut is working.

I like CNN’s choice of headline “worst point decline in history” and the fact that it happened on Trump’s watch.  Is it his fault?  No.  Markets advance and correct.  But the imbecile was taking credit for every point gain as if his brilliance was the reason the market was going up.  So he absolutely deserves this moniker on his watch.

To all those who told me to relax about Trump and just enjoy my 401k…. thanks for the sage advice.

My sincere hope is that it hurts enough to affect the outcome of the midterms.
