Hey, me too.

I keep looking at the market and having the same thought I've been having for years : "This makes no sense... the market has no basis in reality."

The thing is it was out of control and due for a correction a bit before covid. its like covid short circuited the whole thing and now its a new economy (intentional use of term before dot com bust)

In making these comments, Trump put forth the bullish view that Iran-war damage wasn't as bad as it could've been. And it seems to have worked on Tuesday, with major US indexes extending gains into regular trading.

In case it's not obvious, he didn't think that. He's saying he did so he can point out how it's not so bad. He's sane-washing himself at this point.

That or he's saying the quiet part out loud for his insider buddies and lamenting that they weren't able to buy-in low enough or profit enough as a result. Probably both.

Market fundamentals right now are just "greed"
