Trending Article of the Month
We will post a portion from the top trending article of the month before we get to the story of Facebook taking down Hamas accounts.
Stock Market crashes are all based on perceptions; depending on when you embraced this market, the pullback could range from a collision to a correction. For Astute investors, a crash is nothing but the market letting out a well-deserved dose of steam. So, the stock market crash of 2017 or 2018 will prove to be a buying opportunity as long as the trend is up. It’s a monumental disaster for others, and these investors dump the baby with the bathwater. In doing so, they provide astute investors with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If you embraced this bull market in 2016, a pullback in the 10%-15% range would feel like a crash. On the other hand, if you had embraced this beast (the Stock Market Bull) anywhere from 2009 to 2011, it would seem like a mild, orderly correction.
For example, before the correction starts, they might be satisfied if the Dow sheds 1500-2000 points, but after the masses are in full-blown panic mode, these guys will jump on the panic train and lower their targets. History illustrates that they will keep reducing the targets until the markets suddenly reverse course, catching them off guard again. The crowd never wins, and that’s one of the main lessons investors need to understand when it comes to investing. Market Update May 7, 2019

We affirm that those pages have the right to express their points of view just as anyone else does,” wrote Hamas spokesman Husam Badran in a statement posted on the terror group’s website. Full story

That comes as a surprise… Guess now that Trump is in, facebook can’t harbor the criminals so dear to their little muffin headed hearts. Been reporting islamic radical propaganda to Facebook for a long time now, it’s never violated their community standards before. Drug cartel and organised crime recruiting is cool with facebook too, I’ve reported probably 100 known criminal organizations and not a single page or post was removed!
