I don’t deal with big corporations.... so yes they do. There are several capitalists that live on my block, not one corporation. There are 57.9 million people with small businesses.

Long term thinking to a politician is the next election cycle thus long term problems we'll never be solved and usually made worse.
What it tells you is that there's more stock on the market than interested bidders. Stock prices go up because people bid them up on the speculation that their performance and earnings will improve.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
But you see no reason why IPO over the last 6 months would be a terrible measuring tool?

IPO's are more about hype than real market value.
this is not a good time for small business.
but i have to go to the beach and walk the dog.
That’s simply not true. Under Obama there was small but constant growth with minimal inflation. We were out of the boom and bust cycle with a 1.5 to 2% growth. Along came Trump spouting off about 4 and 5% growth and bam!! We’re back into boom and bust acting like it’s normal. It shouldn’t be and it doesn’t have to be.
Some traders use it as a measurement of the outflow of capital from equities and into fixed income. Not the only measurement of future economic trends but worth paying attention to especially given that Uber and AirB&B are waiting deciding on when is the best time to go public. It's all based on confidence in the prospects for a growing economy and an increasing number of equity investors are beginning to have their doubts.
If fact a few traders believe that we will test new lows at the end of next week.

It hasn’t done much since though, apart from pay a dividend.
There was a time when you were guaranteed to be a multimillionaire. Luckily you married one of those people.

When I married him he worked at a Sunoco filling station! Then he worked at Massey-Ferguson. Then he worked at Firestone Tire. Then he got on at UPS as a driver.

Unfortunately I believe your statement is correct. Truly sad they play with our lives in that manner. Nice job.

And then after 30 days he became a supervisor and then after a year he became a manager. I know how it was back then. Too bad he and you don’t have the souls you sold.

It was so great that the fed was giving out free money and talking about possible negative interest rates.
The point is that it wasn’t boom and bust. It doesn’t HAVE to be boom and bust.

Hold the economy/middle class back and let the fed will do what’s best?
