Markets are nearing a correction as the S&P 500 has dropped over 9%, driven by concerns over tariffs, inflation, and economic uncertainty in Trump's second term. Volatility indicators like the VIX have spiked 80% since his inauguration. Analysts urge caution, advising investors to stay diversified as uncertainty remains high with potential further tariffs and economic disruptions ahead.
Wall Street may have initially been happy to see President Trump back in the White House, but less than two months into his second term and the markets are already nearing a dreaded correction.
For a correction to be officially declared, markets must drop 10% from their peak levels. For context, as of yesterday the S&P 500 had dropped a little over 9%.
PAY ATTENTION....PREPARE FOR THE PROBABLE RECESSION....MOTTO, HOPE FOR THE BEST...PREPARE FOR THE WORST
We technically had a recession under Biden with two quarters of negative growth. Of course they decided to change the definition of a recession… conveniently.

Yeah, the market needs to be weaned off the massive amount of money that was dumped into the economy. It sounds like there’s a lot of investment and manufacturing coming back so that’s exciting news for once.
