At the risk of the above post appearing in any way to be “political”- as opposed to what it actually is, which is just reality- i welcome any opposing view to balance things out.. matter of fact, i honestly hope there is someone, anyone out there who is bullish on the market in 2025 .. i would love that glimmer of hope for my brokerage account .

Tariffs hitting Canada, Mexico, and China today. I would not think the markets will respond in a positive way.

Possibly, but the markets have been somewhat irrational over the last several years and shrugged off repeated headline risks, i.e. the wars and conflicts, economic conditions, changes in politics and so forth and are still as high as they've ever been.

So I'm not convinced the market is gonna make any huge moves in the near term. But we'll see.

I’m currently enjoying the irony that a Trillion dollars in capx invested in infringing IP just got wiped out by a Chinese company because they infringed on IP of the people infringing.
