66. When the S&P drops another 40-50%.

Which it quite possibly will.

There will be a few up days over the next weeks most likely, but that will just be a dead cat bounce.

The trend is down, and the downtrend will continue when Trump refuses to back off on this insane tariff plan.

Right now, the downturn is due to the sheer shock and uncertainty of his plan.

The decline will continue in the intermediate term due to the actual fallout of the tariffs.

I give Trump no longer than another year.
