He inherited a bubble, it’s been falling for three months

Beginning to think realDonaldTrump is a deep bedded Russian spy sent into destroy the US from the inside...

Sad times we live in

The U.S stock exchange goes into meltdown and $billions wiped of shares all due to lunatic Trumps policies -2019 will see america go into a great depression

Just goes to show once again how idiotic traders are.

More like a bad president

well hope that is not like 1920's

Load up millennials. He just made stocks cheaper. Your going to need all the help you can get to pay more in taxes as the deficit is growing unsustainably. He got a little help from the prior 2 presidents.

Oh dear!

Well it has been a 10 years since the last recession and we are over due a really good recession they are cyclical and there is a lot of debt around.

ReadOnArizona Rather ironic reference, don't you think, given how you admonished your predecessor for allegedly spending too much time on the course?

Isn't anyone gonna stop this idiot from causing more havoc? He thinks he's the most important person, but he's just another cog in government, but what about all the others that aren't multimillionaires, and have families to support. Selfish jackass! POTUS

Loada balls!

Almost as bad as BBCPolitics or FoxNews for taliking 💩

What a twt

Market goes up. Market goes down. Strap in for the ride.

When is Trump going to wake up to the fact that he’s the worst thing that’s happened to the US in years - everybody else has ?!

You voted for a reality tv star to run your country.

He's right, but that's how banks work in democracy there not patriots they follow the money and sod the consequences!

POTUS is being likened to

Well played! 😄

A plunge from being up over 22% since coming to office

Oh please please let this be his demise !!

Serial bankrupt knows best.

let me guess he blamed it on the democrat fake news? he takes credit when its but n passes the buck when its down cant have it both ways president fart

I guess US stocks will react to anything so why try and figure it all out? Kinda like rolling the dice in Vegas — but Vegas gives you better odds.

He's digging a hole just a little bit deeper every time he speaks.

He’s delightfully bonkers

Muh drug trade is at risk

Your headlines really crack me up! The comment didn't cause the plunge, the federal reserves decision to slow down a booming economy did!

others include: bad golfer, bad driver, bad dad, bad in bed, bad drunk, ...

Looks like this cookies just crumbled

Its actually a very good quip and analogy.

Isn't Obama to blame he took the credit when they were sky high

I think that the increases in stock markets indices during the last years cannot be viewed as a bubble. If the stock values are analyzed independently, especially in the European stock markets, it can be seen that many companies are even undervalued.

One can imagine what this mean to other poor countries mxm!

shirleymcbrinn In a country with more guns than fleas! Why is Donald Trump still alive?

They should have known about Trump’s bankruptcy addiction ...

1/US economy growing at the average post-war rate of 3.5% 2/An inflation rate of around 2% 3/China-US trade war 4/Uncertainty on the oil-markets 5/Slow down in the global economy With this scenario, was the decision to raise the key interest rate a good one? I don't think so.

If Trump tries the tackle the Fed, then he is in danger of ending up like the last two Presidents that took in the Central Bank Lincoln Kennedy

TheAdmiralBar maybe Santa could get him a rescue club?

NotTheOnion

hahahahahahahahaha, you knew it was coming.

Nothing to do with Mosanto losing the court case then.

You always get nuts at Xmas
