You'll notice in the DOW there are 3 noticeable dips. The 2001-2002 dip is possibly due to 9/11, the 2008 dip is definitely due to the Housing Crash, what exactly is causing this current dip?
I personally believe it's Baby Boomers pulling cash out of the market because they're retiring now, just my opinion though.

the first crash was the dot com bubble.

end of the petrodollar

Bailout bubble?
Welcome to the Great Depression 2.0. Hold cash now, and wait for the crash. After this is all over and the markets have burned to the ground, plant your fresh cash into the ground and watch it grow like crazy into the new Secular Bull Market.

Its the sovereign debt bubble, well sort of.
Right now there is a sort of omnipresent unkown fear thats causing markets to plunge (probably sparked by china and the fed), but the fact is that the debt crisis in europe was never fixed, just contained, and once GDP begins to contract its all going to erupt again.
Back in June, Germany came so close to letting Greece leave--there just wasnt any more willpower, and now they are hampered by the refugee crisis. They are out of ammo o combat an eruption of the debt crisis.
Once the Euro breaks up, the contagion can spread to Japan as well. Once everyone flocks to the dollar, itll cause deflation, which will bring depression to the US because the fed is no longer able to lower rates.

not really, remember than a low oil price means low demand for USD reserves - america responds to strengthen dollar, not low demand for US goods and services.
It's all petrodollar, the Saudis are responding to the new US policy of stoking a Sunni/Shia war.

Prove my post wrong, faggot.
Or do you just want to keep posting retard memes, to make yourself feel better, after your -20% loss in your 401k this year?

This too.
strong $$$ is making foreign countries cash in US sovereign debt.
This is a a deflationary time. Don't catch a falling knife and buy when it feels stable enough.
I would say blue chips are a safe bet.

I'm sticking with hold for now but will buy later

Agreed. Last time a soft landing was achieved, there was space to maneuver with interest rates. Keeping them low has minimized the effects of 2008 but taken out the possibility to soften the blow of the following correction.
I actually hope it takes a bit more than a year to pick-up, so there more time for me to get cash for buying.
All we need now is a nice fat news headline: "Are we entering a new recession?" so everyone panics.

Kids these days don't even know the history of economics and financial markets, yet they are making projections and telling stories about the current situation. Kek.

>tfw 1952 marks the midpoint between the beginning and end of the baby boomer generation (1950 if you factor out generation jones) and adding 65 (retirement age) to those values yields 2015-2017

Holy fuck I didn't realize how autistic you were. I read "9/11" as "dot com", scrolled down, got confused by some comments, until I realized you actually put 9/11.
Anyways, carry on the habbedings
When major retirement funds and hedge funds start acting and talking like Peter Schiff you know shit is real.....

its not the baby boomers its the jews
osama bin laden was jewish (hence the beard)

First crash was because of Sydney Olympics
Second crash was because of election of Obama
Current crash is because of David Bowie dying
A market crash is the best time to buy stocks. It's like walking into a walmart and seeing the entire store is 50% off.

China's crashing, bringing down commodities which are then bringing down banks that loaned money to the commodity producers, this is mostly in oil but it's affecting other commodity industries as well, just not as dramatically. In addition we have the fact that we haven't really recovered from the 2008 crisis, baby boomers retiring like you said, Europe is a basket case of problems, the low interest rate environment has led to a lot of investment in junk bonds among other things and the Fed has little to no tools left in reserve to combat a recession.
