Bloomberg: It’s the Worst Time to Make Money in Markets Since 1972 - GoFuckYourself.com

The DOW has been stagnant for almost 13 months now. Best economy in history, what a damn joke.

Market statisticians are falling over each other in 2018 to describe the pain being felt across asset classes. One venerable shop frames it this way: Things haven’t been this bad since Richard Nixon’s presidency.

Ned Davis Research puts markets into eight big asset classes — everything from bonds to U.S. and international stocks to commodities. And not a single one of them is on track to post a return this year of more than 5 percent, a phenomenon last observed in 1972, according to Ed Clissold, a strategist at the firm.

In terms of losses, investors have seen far worse. But going by the breadth of assets failing to deliver upside, 2018 is starting to look historic.

Nothing’s working, not large or small-cap stocks in the U.S., not international or emerging equities, not Treasuries, investment-grade bonds, commodities or real estate. Most of them are down, and the ones that are up are doing so by percentages in the low single-digits.

That’s all but unique in history. Normally when something falls, something else gains. Amid the financial catastrophe of 2008, Treasuries rallied. In 1974, commodities were a bright spot. In 2002, it was REITs. In 2018, there’s nowhere to run.

Republicans, always fucking up the economy.

Every Republican president since Teddy Roosevelt in the early 1900's endured a recession

Jobs Report Weak, but Fed Still on Path to Raise Rates in December

"A weaker-than-expected U.S. nonfarm payrolls report set-off volatile reactions in several markets on Friday amid concerns the U.S. Federal Reserve may have to consider curtailing its plans to raise rates aggressively in 2019."
