When are you planning to retire?
It will for everyone. And then things will get better in a few months. Don't panic.

Well I've seen Facebook posts warning of an economic crisis from earlier this year.
Oh, and we can't ammo up. The ammo our rifles use is constantly sold out.

Rich people were either the first to sell or are buying cheap right now. Probably both.
Not for a while yet, thankfully.
Oh I know. I saw it do the same thing back in 2007/2008. Just sucks seeing it drop like that.
My 401k is more of a pick a spread of options and can be changed monthly. So I couldnt do anything until September anyway right now.

Guys. I already filled my tub with water and am buying all the non perishables at wal-mart right now. Anyone know where I can get the most bottlecaps in the next week?

Not only that, we've been expecting THIS correction for about a decade.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook

This seems to be trending on Twitter under #Blackmonday and I legitimately thought it was a new sale to counter black friday. Little did I know it was about stock markets.
I know nothing about stocks, why is this a huge deal again? Is my life in danger because of this? Should I pack some clothes or prepare to lose my job? Idk

Most retirement savings are locked up in stocks. Otherwise most people wouldn't care all to much, but it can also signal a issue with the economy in general.

Is this a real question? People lost money. It's not fun. It'll be fine soon.

Fully expect some BS from him on how he wouldn't have let the Asian markets start the sell off or how he would single handily prevent future bubbles in foreign and home markets.
I find the stock market hilarious. What a confusing machine of figures and psychological evocations that we value to such a degree, it can cause suffering even if nearly everything in that domain has very little, if any, objective physical reality behind it.
A testament to the absurdity of human thought, I'd say.
She planned this years ago? Collusion!
He will truly MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN through empty angsty rhetoric!
How? Who knows, he'll hire good managers!!!
This is a response i'd a expect from someone with a FX6300.

Stock market collapse --> Panic --> Investors jumping off of buildings --> Fear, more panic --> Joe Schmo buying up ammunition --> THIS IS CHINA's FAULT --> Naked aggression --> War with China declared --> Russia sides with China --> 1 million + dead in fighting --> Use of nuclear weapons to end the war --> human race extinct except those who found refuge underground.
All this is nothing but Fallout 4 viral marketing and I'm getting sick of it.

That's the thing, I have no clue who's losing money here. I don't know what it actually affects or how any of this works. It seems like everyone is freaking out but for what?

Good job!
Nothing is really wrong, 99% of the posts in this thread are by people that 1) doing it for fun, 2) don't know what they're talking about.
I would be it will finish down on the day.
You're right. At this rate it'll be a blip in the larger market. Glad my prediction ended up to be nothing more than hyperbole.

It's going to end up positive after dropping 1000 lol

Easy, most of the stocks shouldn't have been down that much. People were more than happy to jump in and buy at the lower prices.

Yeah, most everything has gone back up at this point.
Anyone panicking in the US has clearly not been paying attention to China's markets for the past decade, ever since the US housing crash.
Haha. That's great.
edit: Regarding trump:
yup, looks like the good time to buy was when it pre-opened

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
Trump is sorta right. There is a very strong argument that this is China's doing. Especially after they propped up their stock market last round a few weeks ago.
Not sure what the US could have done differently.

They've been propping up a real estate bubble in their country for forever and ever. We knew it was going to bust out at some point.

Volatility is high, it will bounce and plunge and rebounce: you will have more than one opportunity to buy at the price you thought you missed in the upcoming 2 weeks or months. Keep a cool head.
FWIW I don't think the Dow at 16k is under- or overpriced.
