• Wall Street ended September, and the third quarter, on a down note Friday
• Dow lost 500 points in the session, extending September's losses to 8.8%
• The S&P 500 and Nasdaq composite both fell 1.5% in Friday's session
• For first time since 2008, all three indexes lost for three straight quarters

Wall Street ended Friday -- the final day of the month and the quarter -- on another down note, with the main stock indexes posting their third straight quarterly loss for the first time since the Great Recession.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 500 points for a loss of 1.7 percent on the day, marking a decline of 8.8 percent for the month of September, 6.6 percent for the quarter, and 21 percent since the start of the year.

The market's dismal recent performance follows historically high inflation, rapidly rising interest rates, and fears that the economy could soon crash into a sharp downturn with massive layoffs and soaring unemployment.

In the first nine months of 2022, Wall Street suffered three quarterly declines in a row, the longest losing streak for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq since 2008, and the Dow's longest quarterly slump in seven years.

Let's go Brandon.

Sorry. Sack. Of. *****

one has to give a lot of credit to the leftists in control of the country to manipulate the economic figures -

they have been able to postpone the final crash and recession until late November, 3 weeks after the election.

It was all so utterly predictable. All one had to do was listen to what Biden and really all the Democrat candidates were espousing, and have a minimal intelligence, to understand what their policies would generate. Shunning Trump because of his personality and/or tweets is one of the most self defeating, cut off your nose to spite your face actions I have ever seen. Despite the warnings being shouted from the rooftops, the TDS was too much for the emotionally weak to overcome, and now our country suffers for it.

It reminds me of a scene from Band of Brothers where the American troops are trying to clear a path through a German held town for a British tank column. A couple of the Americans spot a Panzer hidden behind a building just waiting to ambush the British tanks as they roll by. An American soldier runs down the street to the advancing tank column and hops on the British tank and tells the commander to shoot through the building to hit the hidden German tank. The British commander says he has orders only to shoot what he can actually see. The American pleads with him to shoot but the commander insists he can't shoot at what he bloody well can't see. The American soldier says well, you're about to see him real good, jumps off the tank, and as the column proceeds, by the time the British tank can see the enemy the German tank unloads on them.

TLDR - we tried to warn them, they didn't listen, and now we all reap the whirlwind.

So true. Similar to italics is unfolding about the support for Beto. They don't learn. They have no excuse, its obvious what putting Biden in charge would do, and Manchin has shown no Dem can break ranks and hold that so there is no evading this fact.

It is a religion to Dems/Libs. They will march off a cliff if Brandon tells them to.

They absolutely despised Trump and purposefully undid everything that Trump had put in place. It did not matter if what Trump did was just simple common sense and was working. They **** canned the whole thing and did not care how badly things became. It is complete stupidity and insanity.

The nonstop messaging of being on the verge of a recession but we aren't yet is the most ridiculous gaslighting.

It's absolutely a slow play to shift blame to republicans post election. Never has been anything so obvious.
