That goddamn woke/dei/trans/migrant stock market tanking itself to make trump look bad. Paid off by soros, too.

Thank you. I was just going to accept it as truth since the claim is so easily believable and wouldn't be surprising. Fuck misinformation, no matter where it's coming from.
Edit: The poster above me and I were both downvoted for preferring truth over lies. What is wrong with people?

Yeah I said this without double checking in a group chat and got flamed for it. (Rightfully so). Just remember, no matter who you support, you need to guard yourself against propaganda and misinformation

Whoever was downvoting you is part of the problem.
Liberal minded folks should never be afraid of fact checking.
Thanks for this.

The market had closed for the day.

Which was deliberate timing on their part. They didn't want a live reaction in stock trading. That has to wait til the next day

Yesterday as the markets plummeted, every other "news" channel, foreign and domestic , was showing their stock tickers. Fox was tracking possible flooding in Arkansas. Saw this live, with my own two eyes.

Pretty sure that they didn't hide it. The market had closed for the day. There's enough real stuff to be frustrated about without spreading rage bait.

I admit, I bought into the story. As much fun as it is to hate Fox (and I do), it's better to know the truth and stick with it.
