This brings up a point of order. If the DOW ends at 28001.50 they share otherwise we round up or down to determine a winner.

I fn cashed out about a year ago thinking it would crash. Had a few amazon and google shares which are now not affordable at my budget. got ammo ready for the down swing.

19755 - my wishful thinking.

Thanks DED for the interesting contest

The market probably got a little ahead of itself last year and January. Pullback is healthy. Maybe even a correction but long term looks favorable.

yeah, right.

I love the panic as much as the euphoria when it goes well.
Maybe now we can stop assigning sooo much credit/blame either way on any current President, no matter what any current President says.

so far, we are about back to Dec 2017, or so I heard.

Actually most broad based portfolios were up 25-30% in 2017 long before the tax cuts were enacted but your anti-Trumpism is noted. Wink

maybe the economic momentum from the tax cut will happen after this correction... but asking for a 7,300 point rise (my guess was 31,109 eo'18 ) in 10 months???...that would be quite a run...


and my guess showed more faith in Trump's tax-cuts than most cons who guessed here...

And my 25-30% is high also but even conservative est would be 20%. Corrections happen ever so often.

If stinger wins I'm moving the decimal point on the prize about two places to the left (thanks to the edit function). It will be all I can afford.

The unders are having their day now, what with the fears of a trade war, but the fundamentals are good for a rally later.

My suspicion is: it is becoming more one floor up and two floors down...as more nations respond to Trump's imposition of tariffs, "fears" of a trade war will become a "trade war"...

Stinger's guess looks like a winner...23,210...

Globalization is a process that America's capitalists, our largest corporations, have been primary engines of, and to a large degree, the biggest beneficiaries. To try to reverse course in the name of nationalism seems to ignore our history since the end of WWII, and fly in the face of pure capitalism.

This could be "sour grapes" on my part...took a little bath over the past few days...
