So…Is now a good time to buy?
If the market keeps getting worse than it’s going to be a recession in my wallet either way. There is no way they would’ve made those Tariffs without anticipating the stock market would fall and then shoot up in some way right??? If not then there’s going to to be …

Whether it’s U.S. stocks or Hong Kong stocks, it’s been pure damage for me—total returns in both markets are down over -10%. With the tariff war going on, I’m starting to feel like nowhere’s safe to invest. Right now, I’m into internet, automotive, and electronics stocks. Where are you all …
