Are the Presidents supporters not dipper buyers?

I guess not ! Or are they waiting for more down drafting before the dipping starts?
As for myself I may start a dipping ladder today.
Time to play in the Market Casino!

    Not sure about that, but I do think the inner circle of criminals got the wink/nod to short it or park stuff in cash for a while.

    MarketWatch did a good, detailed study in March of dip buy over time.

    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/thinking-of-buying-the-stock-market-dip-heres-what-you-should-know-6e3e74c1

    My MW subscription has lapsed since then so I can no longer read the article/study.

    From memory, the broad conclusion was that in the most recent period of (I think) 2022-Current, dip buying was no longer the successful strategy that it was for the immediately prior.

    Agreed (sort of).

    IF/when they occur, which ain't that often.

    Since he took office 11 L---O---N---G weeks ago, the S&P has only been UP two weeks,
    UP 1.5% his 1st week, and
    UP 0.5% the W/E 03/21.

    So not many opportunities to Sell the Rip.

    Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia arguably holds the world record for the fastest time in which a new owner destroyed a thriving, major sports franchise. It is something under 24 hours, whenever it was that the trade for Durant was finalized.

    The buffoon has a LOT of firsts to his name from his stint as 45, but as 47, he is clearly in the running to blow away the record for a new president destroying the US economy. Time will tell on that one.

    But it appears he has already broken the record for time it took to destroy a thriving domestic stock market. Gotta check the record book but 11 weeks has gotta be #1.
