Wrong. The drop in Feb 2018 was on the same day Fed Powell opened his mouth, on his first day on the job. Coincidence?
The Oct 2018 drop for 20% happened because the Fed kept raising rates, and Trump "did nothing" to stop it.
The May 5th start of the correction was because Trump announced new China tariffs, escalating the trade war.
The August drop came when Trump ordered all companies to stop doing business with China, and basically pulled a Hitler on the world of business with his bullshit.
So maybe the "public" becomes interested in the market when these crazy political salvos occur?
But these salvos WILL NOT OCCUR if the assholes in the Oval Office, and other heads of state, would just STFU and let the markets do their thing.
My theory is when markets are doing their thing, they're seeking those "assholes" to do something interesting as a catalyst for the next correction.The longer we go without any semi interesting news, the bigger the correction will be.
