Well yes.

You either believe in the company you're investing in or you don't.

And if the company you're investing in is the USA in general you win.

investing in us markets is a no brainer. we are the major power in the world and the key point i want to stress is we have the most POLITICAL STABILITY.
places like china, the people will overthrow the government if they get the chance. oppressive regimes like china just are not good for business.
on a micro level, owning stock is simply, owning a piece of a business and all the hard assets that come with it. i would never invest in a "cloud" company, such as yahoo. like warren buffet says, he doesn't invest in something he doesn't understand.

Imagine shorting PG & E (Pacific Gas and Electric) a week ago. It was trading at $49 just one week ago. Just one week later, the stock is at around $17, due to likely liability for the Camp fire wildfire in northern California. Not to mention considerable liability from the fires of fall 2017.

PCG PG&E up 36% after hours after falling 31% today -- no news that I see -- after hours volume of roughly 4 mm shares so far.

Oh, sweet raisins, what a sell-off so far today!

Short Term & Intermediate Term trends = Down

Long Term trend = Up

Where's your long-term trend line for the S&P?

Historically, y/y earnings growth >20% (this year) has resulted in subpar market results (approximately 340 basis points lower than long-term market returns, according to Ned Davis Research). Therefore, the market is acting right in line with precedent.

the markets are being run by algorithms these days. what used to make sense in the past makes no sense today. nobody knows which direction a market or an equity is heading 1 minute ahead of time, let alone 1 week. the 1 week might be considered long term these days.
