Lost 7k in the past few minutes. Biggest underperformer that killed me so far the past few weeks has actually been Apple's steady decline from that $134 mark though.

Yesterday night, financial news reported that China (Monday morning for them) had a major sell off so the writing was on the wall for today.

What? You're way off message in this thread. This selloff isn't about regulations/taxes/etc., it's simply about china's economy, and we're all affected in a globalized world.

Re: Rough week in the stock market...
It's a shitshow this morning. Liquidity is even worse than the flash crash. The system is so jammed that people can't even make trades.

Where's this "unregulated, untaxed capitalism" happening? It sure isn't in the US or China.

stock trading on wall st is untaxed, unregulated. high speed trading is a scam. just mention a "sales tax" on stock trading and watch the financial criminals scream like fat pigs.
your financial person will churn your stocks to kill your profits by pocket trading fees, but the buying/selling is untaxed.

Did I miss where the capital gains tax was repealed and the SEC shut down?

If the stock market is untaxed, then I'm owed a hefty refund.

The gains are taxed. And why should you get taxed on trades that yield realized losses?

when you sell (for loss or gain), somebody buys, so there should be a "sales tax" on the sale

Again, false. As usual, you're confusing "not up to your extremist standards" with "nonexistent."
The funny thing is, China would be your dream stock market. The top 12 companies are all owned and operated by the government. They've literally banned the biggest shareholders from selling stock for six months in a frantic attempt to prop up the system. And it's a disaster.

I've earned way more in dividends and net gains that what i've lossed (not even a realized loss) in the last week. Earning 1% interest on your "mountain of cash" is for suckers. You've lost money on inflation alone.

Re: Rough week in the stock market...
The market has rebounded BIG TIME from this morning. Down less than 1% now.
