Now, Trump just announced that the downed helicopter was from Iran attacks and the U.S. will respond, and the war will restart shortly.

Crazy how before the markets opened he was talking about how close a deal was, now in the middle of the day, the war drums start...


Iran successfully shot down one American helicopter? How much death and destruction will that cost them? Their leadership DOES NOT CARE! They intentionally broke the ceasefire. They will suffer the consequences.

Bingo on ‘the markets’.

Imagine being a ‘winning’ Iranian knowing American and/or Israeli planes can fly over your country and bomb you AT WILL?
And knowing you can’t launch YOUR tankers from YOUR ports without the US giving you permission?
With your economy in tatters while the US is just suffering a teeny weeny bit?

Cue Terapined telling me how Iran is winning.

Are they winning or simply not losing?

By standing up to the USA as they have Iran has proven that America, like Russia viz. Ukraine, is just a paper tiger...UNLESS nukes are used.

Now I hear it is claimed the helicopter was accidentally and unintentionally shot down by an Iranian cruise missile which had been aimed at a land target.

What to believe any more?

You go to war against a country and Soopoo is furious they are defending themselves by shooting down a helicopter
Let's be honest. A shot down helicopter makes Trump look bad and thats why Soopoo is upset
Soopoo is OK with the US or Israel breaking a cease fire
Iran does it and Soopoo demands blood
Talk about bloodthirsty
By the way
Iran has kept the Strait closed, no regime change, they control their uranium, gas prices in the US remain high and inflation is rising in the US
Yea
Iran is winning

In "normal" times I'd question somebody's patriotism for rooting for Iran but these aren't normal times and we most DEFINITELY do not have a normal president, so rooting for Iran is tantamount to rooting against the fat oaf and all (or the little) he stands for.

Not saying the war has been good for US. Just you have to be delusional to think Iran is winning anything. Their country cannot protect its skies. Its shores. It’s bats. Can’t export or import. Has no access to large swaths of its ‘assets’. Has had its top leaders killed. It’s (edit…NEW!) leader is afraid to show his face ANYWHERE. The people have a currency in free fall. If you think being able to bomb ships off your shores is winning I can’t help you.

(Well we are back at war, well we have been at war, I mean we are back to firing.)

I do not know, nor do I claim Iran is winning. What I do know, we are certainly not winning anything. We are exponentially worse off that before the war started.

We are blowing up their shoreline now as of this hour? Cool, that is certainly going to help me feed my family this week much more than the lost school lunch funding would.... We are losing because we gained nothing. We just spent money and are damaging our economy for literally zero reason, this is a loss.

We are suffering more than a teeny bit. And, please save your rant about SP500 and Gold Prices. Americans living in mobile homes in the swamp who cannot afford gas or eggs are not benefiting by higher gold and SP500 prices... Once again a good stock market actually does not matter for a large portion of America, in fact it is often a bad sign (a good market and very high prices with very high unemployment is a warning of a coming recession, so good markets are often not a good thing for the average American....)

Say WHAT?

"Jew leader?"

The Supreme Leader of Iran, Mojtaba Khamenei, is a Muslim of the Twelver Shia (Ja'fari) branch of Islam.

Doc, I don't know what drugs you're on but I'd like to try some...WHEEE...on beyond zebra...

The "big bump" sure didn't last long, did it?

Investors quickly came to their senses and realized "Oh shit, just more bombastic bullshit from the fat oaf."

Too bad this narcissistic moron influences the market just by scratching his ass.


Ended up today. I guess investors changed their minds after reading your post?!?
