The government shutdown and the attacks on the federal reserve are more likely what caused the recent dip.
Well the way the anti-Trump leftist media portrays things also does its damage.
(along with their goosestepping reefs)
I'm sure you would agree that all markets hang on human perception and emotion.
Fear vs greed amirite?
Well, psychology (including perception and emotion) is part of it, but actual figures (sales, market share, growth, demand) also play a part. Long term the hard figures matter more, short term emotions and herd mentality can warp the market quite a bit.
That's why stability and predictability are so important. They reduce the impact of the psychological factors.
And that's why the market reacted favourably to the democrats taking the house.
Many investors may prefer republican politics, but they value predictability even higher, and having all branches of government controlled by the same party increases the likelyhood of change.

I dunno Per, I figure the market is so overvalued that it's all about fear and greed at this point.
Beware the goosestepping fearmongerers...

Absolutely! Fear is divisive. Us vs them.
We don't need no freaking walls!
We just need compassion.
Glad we see eye to eye on this.
Cheers, mate!

Per: Don't confuse fear with wisdom.
UK: You fear Trump, you are greedy for liberal power, and your cup runneth over with hate for conservatives.
But Happy New Year anyway, you twisted fucks!
You too Doc, enjoy the last of the happy holidays.
I can’t wait to get back to work, my liver needs a long rest.
I had some hope for Trump but his obsession with himself has lead him astray. I do like what he has done to China, no other country scares me as much as them.
Anyways back to drinking 2 more days off then back to work.

Not going back* till the 7th. I need my twelve days of christmas!
... China, no other country scares me as much as them.
No other country has 1.4 billion people.
Sure, India is close, at 1.35, but no cigar.
*technically not going back at all, as I'm switching jobs, but still

Good stuff about Lying Donnie and the lies he tells.
Although, mind you, lying to the American people is apparently not a crime. Lying to congress though.....

Well, well time to dust off the corner laugh o meter.
Awesome
Rummy is back
I’m thinking Per would make an awesome other gendered person. I mean sie’s Swedish so blond bombshell and sie’s educated and pretty well on the ball (in a manner of speaking) and plus sie’s a hockey fan so there’s that. Oh and also sie is not a trump fan so there is hours of fun to be had trading anti trump memes and calling out the fat orange prick as he stubs his dick every time he gets in front of a camera.
