The 401k and its consequences, faggots. This is boomer investing. This is boomerism at its core.

40% of every tariff dollar you've spent as a consumer is going into the bank account of the big guy. What a steal.

Crypto is dead. So I'm looking into buying again, maybe lump sum maybe DCA. What do you think, anons? Some think that the bear market is just starting so maybe it's better to wait... but idk, the sentiment seems rather depressed already. Anyone else also accumulating rn or ar you waiting for october? Alts or BTC?

Previous Thread: >>61877761

was today's news bullish or bearish? At first Trump said he was deeply disappointed in the ruling, then 5 minutes later he said the new tariffs will bring in even more money and are even more powerful and even allow him to destroy countries....

Does this board have any real scalping/day trading success stories? Or are you all a bunch of posers...

I watch Bloomberg while walking on the treadmill.

The single most undervalued crypto asset in the world, and /biz/ is ignoring it.

What's in his wallet?

Based on that pattern and that operation. Can you calculate how much

>tarrifs knocked down
>btc below 68k
Kek any more bullish narratives?

Every sector of the economy sucks ballsack right now

Oh man, you Americans are so divided and are willing to eat each other just to hold the little power you had left. Its time to save the economy at the cost of your freedom, you better have those Yuan ready

Am I just a seething chud, or do female interviewers genuinely have bias against average guys?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>has a near infinite amount of acts that all have to be individually defeated in court
So you DIDNT buy during the false push right? Your not retarded enough to think it was going to end right? You're not one of those coping /biz/tards are you?
