The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down roughly 200 points for the day at the time of Donald Trump’s tweet.

This guy is wrecking the economy in real time.

all this and they closed at 1pm


it must be hard to see the world in black or white / win or lose

and be unable to see Gray
He made a stupid tweet. And the market tanked. Doesn't mean one caused the other, and if it matters, a lot of people agree that the fed is getting ahead of itself with rate hikes. There is a huge likelihood that the markets would be higher, if the fed wasn't as aggressive with rate hikes.

Please tell me what I said, which is wrong...

if idiotic tweets caused the market to drop 600 points, how was the market up so much in 2017? Was he restrained and mature in 2017? Nope.
