Now that S&P 500 is climbing and a lot are celebrating, does anyone else feel like this is just the tip of the shitberg? (lemmy.world)

All things considered, it has only been about 3 months since Trump took office, I feel like there is absolutely no way that this was just a single craze and from here things will even out.

I feel like until 2028 (or maybe 2026?) S&P 500 is going to look like a roller coaster.

What do you think?

Isn't that just a deterministic nihilistic world view? I mean it just sounds like you are saying that nothing could have been different and that it was allways going to be like that.

I don't see why that would be true, Harris was very close to winning. not all broken systems have to end in an extreme collapse, it's not impossible that things could have been fixed over time.

I just don't think that everything is doomed to fail and that Trump is nothing but a vessel for the inevitable.
