just remember the 2007 crash took until 2013 to break even
that was catastrophically engineered by wall street selling lit sticks of dynamite, so the comparison isn't perfect at all
what I'm getting is that this was easily avoidable and is a market scare caused by an elected official larping like he paid attention in business school
who knows how long it will continue, and how much B2B and retail prices will be affected by market fears

The 07 crash took years of bad unregulated banking to come to fruition though. These two are not the same

Realistically what would you be cashing out? If you're talking about a 401k or other retirement account, that should have been invested in one of those target year funds that shift away from equities to cash the closer they are to your planned retirement.

Markets like long-term stability and America looks really unstable, that's why DAX is up 8% YTD and SP500 is down 8% YTD. The dollar is getting fricked too at -6% YTD. Even the bong's FTSE100 index is green YTD.
Non-US investors invest a shitton in US markets because they are (were) relatively stable in terms of the government not doing insane shit relative to the rest of the world. If that trend reverses in the long-term that looks really bad for US equities.
Maybe this shakes out fine, but right now the market is definitely pricing in a ton of risk in America.

Unironically fix the birth rates with this one weird trick, delete retirement
Remove foid rights if you also want a baby boom :
The 2 biggest reasons people aren't having kids is because kids went from financial security to a loss, and foids find poor men icky.
And hard not to be poorer when women are treated better in every area of life, from school admissions to hiring. Tons of articles how 'young men are underperforming' after the same people cheered about companies 'doing their part' in hiring more 'BIPOCs'
Hard not to sound like an angry incel complaining about it though. Shit gonna get tough when men fall out of all positions of power and the women still keep acting in the best interest of women. We're already in the stage of 'men are poor, here's how this affects women'
And now as men are rising up (very slowly though), they are being accused of extremism and the answer is to censor online spaces so men don't hear andrew tate. So we already see the direction of society under female influence. The only question is how much worse will it get. Re-education camps?

I like the 1720s for the start of the white mans global dominance but you could peg it before. you should never blame women or bipocs because they don't control anything and never will at this rate

Because market downturns tend to coincide with other bad economic things happening, like layoffs, and people are forced to liquidate their equities at market lows to pay the bills etc.

President Trump Announces Camaro To Be Discontinued Until The McRib Is Back For Good
Article text since archive.org is painfully slow (click to expand, dummy)
WASHINGTONโ After weeks of speculation, President Trump announced reasoning behind the abrupt end to Camaro production. The news came to the ears of the public in a departing statement on the tarmac outside of Airforce 1.
"As you all know, we have been working very hard, very hardโฆ With General Motors, to ensure we can supply enough valuable, important, American jobs, in Detroit."
"The Camaroโฆ I love the Camaro. We all love the Camaro. Don't we? What a classic, American muscle car it is. Classic American muscle."
"However, to ensure the future of General Motors, and myโฆLunchโฆ We must move to cut production, so that we can stay competitive at home, and abroad."
The president then leaned away from the microphone as he finished speaking.
"Questions?"
He pointed to a reporter in the audience, "Yes, CNN."
"Yes, sir, what is this you're saying about your lunch? What does Camaro production have to do with your lunch?"
"You see, Jim, we tried to make a deal, with GM. We tried to make a deal. They said to us, 'How can we bring down the price of pork? How do we do that?' They couldn't figure it out. What I want is, a McRib. Okay? Remember? The McRib? It has been gone soโฆ so long. You may not remember it."
"We wantedโฆ I wantedโฆ"
"Sir this is a-"
"Excuse me. Excuse me. I'm speaking."
The president then raised both his hands in some manner of incomprehensible gesture.
"We told General Motors, as long as the McRib is gone, the new Camaro cannot happen."
"One more Question. Please, only one more question."
"Yes, MSNBC."
"Sir have you spoken to McDonalds on this matter? What do they say about this deal you're making with GM?"
"They like the deal. They think it is a good deal. I keep telling them, 'Hey, I just want a McRib sandwich'. I want it to come back. I want it to be backโฆ Forever. To get the pressure on them, I told GM, 'No Camaro until the McRib is back, like, and I mean, forever. Forever people. It's been gone too many times. Far too many times, and for far too long."
"Anyway, anyway, we will see what happens. We will see what happens, people. Thank you, thank you."
The president then turned around and walked back towards Airforce 1, as reporters continued to yell and ask questions about his obsession with the processed pork sandwich.
