No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

If you're going to retire in the next ten years you shouldn't have so much money in the stock market. If you're young then this is a fire sale.
Big donors who wanted this own large private businesses and have very little market exposure.
Firesale?? And how are you suppose to partake, you just lost a huge bit of wealth??? The stuff you buy today will only grow as fast as the stuff you just lost.
It's a fire sale for people who moved to more securities and cash earlier when trump signaled that he was going to crash the market. Also his billionaire buddies when he said he was going to do this, got a heads up.
They're going to buy premium stocks for dirt cheap now and clean up if/when it recovers.
The issue this time around is, trump destroyed the fundamentals of trade between literally every other country on earth outside of the US.
There's literally no way for the market to recover when it's largely based on the same global trade that trump just destroyed for the next generation or two at least.
Allies will not trust the US anymore. We just pulled a Brexit and gave up our seat at the head of the table in world trade.
They may recover, but not to the pre-trump tariff's level.
You haven't anything until you sell. Holding long-term is more profitable anyways.
You aren't. It's for people that already have tons of resources.
Increase contributions to retirement and other savings accounts like HSA and college funds. You're going to need it since social security is going away.
Bro calm the fuck down. Welcome to the stock market. This is really fucking bad but if you were to sell now you'd be an absolute fucking idiot. Fight the urge and BUY
