I have advised more than once that you see a psychiatrist.
You’ve given a lot of advice regarding investments, most of it bad advice.
Of course you would think that, but you are insane.
It’s interesting that you bring up insanity. I assume you’ve heard this quote before: “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”. That sure sounds a lot like your failed investment strategy.
Have heard this before: following someone on the internet, harassing that person through various means and nefarious activities, is a crime.
Don’t worry. I’m a big boy. I can take it. I won’t be pursuing any legal action against you.

Hope you enjoyed the beating you took in the market yesterday.
More today?

That wasn’t much of a beating. Knowledgeable investors know better.

Stocks got clobbered Monday in the biggest rout of the year for the three major indexes as trade tensions between the U.S. and China intensified.
Investors frantically dumped shares after China’s currency, the yuan, weakened sharply against the U.S. dollar, a move seen as a possible retaliation against President Donald Trump’s call last week for more tariffs on Chinese goods.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 767 points, or 2.9%, to close at around 25,718, while the Standard & Poor's 500 index tumbled 87 points, or nearly 3%, to end at 2,845.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite fell the most of the major indexes, losing 278 points, or 3.47%, to finish at 7,726 on Monday.
Not much of a beating, eh?

here's a way out:
China just devalued. So they can afford some wiggle room now. They will save on the currency what they lose on the tariffs.
So now China goes to Trump and says 'stupid fat man, we will give you a concession that we don't really care about. Now you can sign a deal, declare victory and win your election. Your precious stock market will stop falling 3% per day.'
Part of the deal will be to look the other way when tanks roll into HK, but Trump will be more than happy to look the other way on that one.
First of all, I made out huge yesterday after futures tanked at open right at 6pm. Thank God Mnuchin decided to label them a currency manipulator at like 5:30 lol. Second, if a Twitter employee put like a 1 minute delay on Trump's Twitter account then that person could probably make a billion dollars by front running.
China can only devalue their currency so much and they're hitting the limit. Their own citizens are hemorrhaging money and it's not sustainable, but otherwise I agree with you on the concessions and tanks rolling into HK.

At least I know how to quote a post correctly. Everyone knows futures and options trading is basically wild gambling. I'm not touting my skill here, I just got lucky.

Why don't you tell us in advance of what you are doing today and then we can see how it works instead of claiming after the fact how you cleaned up on the worst trading day of the year?
"At least I know how to quote a post correctly." Passive aggressive much, Nancy Boy?

I put all my money into CD ladders because I believe the market will collapse by 50% or more in the next 2 months. I'm also all in on a 1-star rated bear fund I found on Morningstar.

Here is a real prediction.
Market opened pretty far up this morning.
It will end the day way down.
Simple and clear.
CD ladders are a huge risk...if interest rates rise you are stuck with shite
