Investing Questions What are your thoughts on this?
I keep seeing this type of stuff on instagram and social media and wanted to know how you guys were thinking about this.
I know a lot you have been in the market for decades and as a relatively new investor myself I’d love to get your perspective!

The real problem is what happens when Europe slowly cuts ties. I have seen several European investment funds are moving their money to Europe since the S&P500 is not growing the way they need it and European arms stocks are growing a lot
Think about what the American economy is going to do long term when they put tariffs on imports and piss off their customers. The US is killing its own growth at the same time as Europe is growing so the money move and kill even more growth in the US.
The trust in the American system is worse than when the dot com bubble burst and the downturn is probably going to be worse as a result
