  1. I can see conservatives seeing “circuit breaker” and thinking it’s some kind of action movie situation where they have to time “hitting the circuit breaker” to save the world.

  2. Won’t be the only market to hit a circuit breaker today ( tomorrow for US). 

    For those who don’t know how these work, they get progressively longer. For NYSE there are 3 — Level 1 is 7%, Level 2 is 13%, and Level 3 is 20%.

    Level 1 and 2 are 15+ minute timeout (cooling off periods), Level 3 is an all day timeout. Hitting a Level 3 would be a major sign because you’re going to have a lot of backed up selling volume (potential energy) that wants to beat each other out the door on the next day.

  3. This is the pain that I heard came before the riches….. the winning is on the way, or so I was told.

  4. Every working person’s retirement is going to get fried.
    The billionaires aren’t really hurt. they had a heads up.

  5. Cancerous site.

    Feels like my data was diddled with.

  6. I just don’t have the energy to hear people at my work talk about how great it’s gonna be once these tariffs finally pay off. My index funds have been wiped out while billionaires who bought Trumpcoin got the Signal chat to pull out months ago so they could have a Black Friday sale with our retirement funds. 
    Feelsbadman 🙁 

  8. The next protest is 4/19. I don’t want to hear about your Easter plans. These are fighting words! Stand up! Fight back!

  9. I’m scared this is tax season too, I can’t just dump money into the dip.

  11. This is going to be amazing.

    Well done, MAGA voters, you fucked over the entire world.

  12. The world depends on us financially in large part, trade-wise at least. We derive a benefit from being a stable and financially dependable country. If we pull out they will find someone else to depend on who will take that benefit.

  13. Watching our Indian market at -6% now. 1 hour in. Should be hitting it soon

  14. Taiwan markets have been closed for several days for tomb sweeping season/festivities. For them, this is the market catching up. Given the absolute carnage of the last three trading days, they might even hit that mark again tomorrow.

  17. Here in the UK, when our PM messes up with the market we kick them in the ass and out (look up Liz Truss). But the King D.J.T. can do whatever he desires.
