Is the title a mod edit, or is OP being overly dramatic?
DOW dropping 1% is child's play.
& Twitter dropping 6% is awesome...

I've personally enslaved my neighborhood for cheap labor as well as sex slaves for post-apocalyptic currency.

You guys act as if the declining fossil fuels market comes as a surprise. With how many 1st world governments are pushing to lower dependence why would this make a good long-term career choice?
It isn't that hard to transition to careers in other industries (I used to be in a position in the fuel industry and have moved on). The hardest hit will be those on the bottom of said industry since re-skilling may be more difficult for them.

It's only as difficult as you make it to be. I've known someone who worked in the medical field, financial field, corporate network offices, and a university faculty.

It's just not today.The market has been very sluggish this year in general. I think people are waiting for a crash coupled (i thibk 5 years straifht of double digit growh)with what happened in Greece and the China stock market, people seem to be more wary. Some just wabt to take profite and wait foe the market to crash.If the Feds so raise rates this year, that will add fuel to the fire.
I'm concerned.

Good thing you made the thread! If this is the chaos that stems from a 0.5% drop, I would hate to see what happens during an entire percent!

Yeah, I've seen a few Facebook posts from stay-at-home investors (who are also, coincidentally, poker players), that the stock market is going to total shit, etc.

Any of the social media stocks were only good for their IPOs. Beyond that they can't really do anything to increase their value that won't drive away their customers.
Buying them after IPO is a suckers bet unless you want to ride a short term gain of some news story.

This is why I rolled my eyes when you said slavery was a long-term investment. Hello, historical record! Cannibalism is a better choice and I stand by it.

Old wall street adage is sell in May and go away, return to the market in November. While its historically NOT held true the last few years, a 0.52% drop in a day is absolutely nothing.
You want to know brutal? The chinese stock market is in almost freefall, dropping 30% or more this summer so far. It had a 8.5% drop last week in a single day. It should have maybe a bigger impact on the US market, but then again maybe money is fleeing there and moving into US assets.
