i hate the path australia seems to be taking copying america’s politics
it really seems like theyre trying to appeal to the young men who were raised on the internet with videos about american politics, so now their political opinions are shaped on american politics then just being applied to australian politics. the amount of times i see people calling labor 'liberals' BY AUSTRALIANS is concerning, ill see someone talking about shit and complaining about liberals making stuff woke here, and its like wtf are you talking about?

Wall Street or ASX?
wall street, maybe asx but i think it may be just a 1 day thing. us efts listed on the asx would also fall for a week or so i think, not too happy about that since im pretty heavily ivv weighted...

You're telling me the party that supports this thing --> View attachment 45580 , puts lgbt flags in every classroom, and thinks men can get pregnant is intelligent? 💀 Just look at California (a democrat ran state), car theft and smash and grabs are so common place that nobody bothers calling the police there. You cannot leave your car parked in San Francisco because a certain group of people (the usual suspects) will break your car's windows and steal the stuff inside. This group of people can foster because of weak democrat policies and punishment against them, it's not a felony to steal below $1000, which means they can steal your laptop and not be punished by the law. Oh and I didn't even mention how the city streets of dem cities look like a third world country. The democrats aren't centre left, they are far left. One day they will make murder legal too. I don't know about you, but having a city with crime and homelessness rampant doesn't sound too intelligent.

not how the stock market works, everything is priced in

if the stock market was likely to dip then the many many smart institutional investors would have already corrected for that and prices would’ve already reduced

volatility != likely to go down though, the expected value would be a very tiny slight increase afterwards, although obviously that’s a mean of more extreme cases
