Everything is down today… yet the DOW is up??? WTAF?

ElmoLovesGrover

Wow, market is looking weak. DOW essentially flat now, Russell 2000 only slightly positive, volume in all indices dropped quite a bit from first hour of trading.

auroraavm

DOW's not happy. They know what's up.

kemar7856

According to the NY Post, Nancy Pelosi's return on her stock OUTPERFORMED THE DOW by 17,000% for raking in 133 million from 1987-2025 is that better then u/visualmod returns?

SPY up huge, weekend DOW flying

You can never have “Too many” bullets. You obviously know the prices. You should therefore know they all essentially 5X’d during COVID and haven’t gone down (Which was essentially a moderately worse version of the flu for 90% of us) Yeah the DOW & S&P dropped 50%…. For a couple months. Just keep buying index funds…. And if the market drops again, buy more. We only seem to get these chances every decade or so (Dot com bubble, real estate bubble, covid bubble, and probably an AI bubble in the near future) but like I said, the market WILL bounce back. If you don’t think it will, I stand by my statement. I do dabble in the metals but if shite really hits the fan I think you’d be better off bartering with a handful of .22lr’s than an ounce or silver or even gold.

New-Outcome4767

DOW is up. S&P is hardly down. What’s a cope? I remember my first day in the market

You aren't great at linear math are you? S&P Jan. 1, 2025- 5979.52 Today- 6720.32 DOW Jan. 1, 2025- 42732 Today- 47380 The today numbers are larger than the January 1 numbers.

Why is UNH dumping overnight when DOW futes are barely down? Did I miss some news? I thought this was a "defensive" stock lol.

MattJones13

The DOW is down. S&P is down. Just hold on. If you can’t see a down day or two- it’s too much stress- then you’re not investing- you’re gambling and it’s not right for you. Yes, NVDA is down 8 today. Just hang on or you’re going to loose your shit.

MeMeStOnKsWiN

Not that uncommon. DOW is more defensive.

Traditional_Page_75

It’s really weird that the DOW is falling less as a percent value than the SnP and the NASDAQ.

It is not the DOW: that would have taken a full act of Congress to change the actual name, so all they changed was the slogan for the Department Of Defense, just so Hogswallower could put "Secretary of WAR!!!!!!!!" on his door.

DOW, CE and LYB are highly commoditized business with numerous competitor and as I stated ASH has been cleaning up and exiting their poor performing segments. I am waiting for ASH next quarterly report and expecting drastic improvements in gross profits.

MaleficentPositive53

ASH seems to be trading no differently than DOW, CE, LYB. The company seems to be facing the same sector risks.

MaleficentPositive53

DOW is the chemical companies' chemical company. It's difficult to see how specialty chemicals will avoid the market's wrath if a company like DOW continues on a downward trajectory. FMC's recent prices movement shows the specialty chemical companies aren't insulated from potential recessionary pressures in the sector and broader economy.

DOW chemical at new highs? Uhhhh check again

salty0waldo

Yeah, I think the DD electronics materials spin-off is more attractive. I’m interested in the aerospace and automation divisions, the materials was holding it down it seemed. Always seem drawn to materials divisions. Looking over LYB, looks like they might be seeing a bottom in PP/PE demand. Not sure if that’s something you are interested in. Sorta boom or bust but lately been floor level bust lol. Was confused because DOW call didn’t indicate anything positive just not worst case anymore.

DukeCanada

2 years? I’ve been seeing this post since 2014. I have no clue why people are so predisposed to thinking the market is about to explode.  I viscerally remember a peer at the time claiming that the DOW crossing 17k was super fucked and he went on this huge rant about how market manipulators were driving it up and yada yada yada

trade_thriving

I've been watching the chemical sector for a while and honestly it's been brutal. I picked up some DOW last year thinking I was getting a deal and it just kept dropping. The dividend yield looks tempting but I'm worried about cuts if things get worse. I think you're right about the acquisition angle though. Some of these smaller players like HUN are probably attractive targets for the bigger guys who have cash sitting around. The specialty chemical exposure is key - that's where the margins are better than commodity stuff. What worries me is China demand. I've noticed whenever there's bad news from thier manufacturing sector, these stocks get hammered. And with all the trade uncertainty, idk if we've seen the bottom yet. Could be a value trap situation.

Captain-Popcorn

I’m an older investor and hold quite a bit in the DOW. The idea was 30 companies representing different aspects of the economy. It’s weighted by stock price and they used to keep them in a pretty narrow range. The range is wider now so some of the tech companies have a bigger share. But I still think the weighting of these leading companies is very different than the S&P 500. Comparable of not equal. But if one of the markets takes off as a percentage, it moves the needle as if a big tech company takes off be the same percentage (stock market wise). The ETF is DIA. Not sure why yet but the DOW looks to be up pretty big at the pre-open. Guess I’m old school but I like the DOW in my portfolio.

DennyDalton

SCHD is likely to hold up better than the market if it tanks because I think that it has a 10% exposure to tech versus 35% in the S&P 500. I highly doubt that you can put on a 2 year collar at 90%/130% with a net cost of less than 1%. Apart from the width disparity, dividends increase the cost of puts relative to calls. Having retired young, my goal is different than most here. After years of aggressive growth, my focus changed to keeping my money and having some potential for growth. rather than full exposure to growth. That's means hedging. My game is keeping my nest egg so I'm willing to leave both tails to others. They can have the big gains and the big losses. I'll accept more modest gains with no killer losses (see 1987, 200, 2008, 2020). Every few years after large market increases (or when there's adverse market news), I buy IWM or SPY put LEAP spreads 10% OTM and 10% wide with a cost of about 1.5% of the proceeds being hedged. Because I'm comfortable shorting equities, 10% OTM gives me modest protection and between the two, I can offset a decent amount of portfolio loss. With a normal cooperative market during the year, I cover and re-sell the short puts and/or roll the long leg down, lowering the cost of the position of to a net outlay of half a percent or better. If the market is higher after 6-9 months or time decay has eroded the short puts, I close them, ending up with long protective puts which then provide full protection below their strike price. How effective they are depends on the index's current price. If the long puts have any decent salvage value, sometimes I roll them out to the next hedge to avoid the increased theta decay during the last few months before expiration. In 2020, I had a lot of leftover long March SPY puts worth 15 cents two weeks before expiration. When the market tanked due to Covid, I rolled, selling them for $15 to $21. I rolled them down 2-3 more times that month. Between these leftover puts and individual position hedges, I was down less than 10% when the market dropped 35%. Reasonably easy to recover from. And this was despite owning several 1,000 share positions in large caps that lost more than 50% during the drop (CCL, DOW). This year, the tariff talk troubled me. In early February, I bought Sep '25 and Jan '26 IWM $210 puts outright and I rolled them down 3 times to $175, putting a nice gain in my pocket. The Jan $175-s are highly likely to expire worthless but I booked a nice gain from the process. Personally, I wouldn't do a 2+ year collar. Yes, the cost per day is less than 1+ years but if the market rises, they become ineffective. Let's assume (a guess) that a 2027 10%/30% is 2/3 the cost of 2028. If the market drops, your collar does what it's supposed to do. If VTI rises nicely, you can deploy that 1/3 cost savings into a collar at higher strikes, establishing more effective protection. Another advantage of the 1= year collar is that later in the cycle, it will be easier to roll the short call up and out for a credit, avoiding assignment and a taxable event. A 2+ year collar will retain much more time value and rolling will be more costly. If you don't understand some of this, ask for clarification.

As someone who is now a millionaire investing in KTOS and ONDS I can assure you it is no pump and dump stock. The fact no one here mentioned the billions for rail road upgrades that will come when the government shut down is over tells me no one has done real research. Also they have top secret drone technology that will be used in the IRON DOME which alone make this a $100 dollar stock. You think they were able to raise 189 million from the Wall Street whales without having something special. You mention BAE and Northrop Grumman the days are over under Trump and the new DOW of the good old boy network winning all the big contracts. Best product and most cost effect are the winners now.

I need to read through the transcript tonight, but this is really promising for the industry if the bottom is in. LYB has been better at capital allocation in recent to DOW but DOW has pretty much had all the bad news baked in. I do wonder if LYB has a bit more downside risk considering cash flows though?

corundum9

On better than expected losses, aka there's still a lot of upside and the bottom has likely passed. LYB also popped based on DOW's earnings which is a good sign for the entire sector.

Munger always said he looks for opportunities that are obvious and so don't require a lot of calculating to see the benefit. If you understand what is happening with AI then all these companies, and more (e.g. Galaxy, Core Scientific, etc.) are no-brainers. That's not to say value investors would ever touch any of these companies with a ten foot pole. They wouldn't. But they cling to fundamental analysis because they are not engineers and the bull and bear cases for AI appear to them as just two sets of opinions that stand on how reasonable their arguments sound to their lay-ears. So the value investor thinks there is at least some possibility that AI isn't going to wreck half the companies on the S&P and most of the companies on the DOW and Russell. You either understand the technology or you don't. If you don't then there is nothing appealing about any of these companies; they smell like snake-oil. But if you do understand AI then there is nothing appealing about anything else. Either way the decision is obvious.

With the sell off today in the market, DOW -392, Nassdaq -360, It would be a good day to get some low price deals on stocks. Good entry points today on market selloff. I like these 5 stocks to start a investment portfolio. good luck. All 5 have strong earnings and future growth. I personally have 20 stocks in my portfolio, but it's take some time to manage them. I'm retired. The 5 stocks you pick should beat the S&P 500 index every year, which is your baseline threshold. If you can't beat the S&P 500 index with your stock picks, then just buy the index. 1. NVDA 2. MSFT 3. GOOG 4. AMZN 5. TSM

If you're waiting for a 🥭tweet to save your ass, keep an eye on the DOW, he gets really agitated if it drops more than 500 pts in one day for some reason. He probably has prepared a "I highly respect President Xi, a great friend, we will make the greatest trade deal ever" and just waiting until Barron loaded up on calls before hitting SEND.

salty0waldo

There are a lot of factors causing this, and I think prior comments hit on the big ones. Commodity chemicals like PP and PE are in a massive oversupply with weak demand, think DOW/LYB/CE. Demand is an issue, but also China is dumping alot of cheap products into the market, which is putting strain on margins. Also, low oil prices hurt the margins. The industry was not prepared for such a prolonged downturn as well, so after a while the impact on the balance sheet became amplified (IMO). Specialty chemicals like DD, Corteva, EMN, and CC are expected to stabilize in Q3/Q4.

corundum9

DOW is currently at a 10 year low, they already trimmed the dividend last earnings call, and Buffet just bought OxyChem. They have to be due for at least some slight forward optimism, right?

Well I’m eating some crow about Monday was going to be a down day. It turned into another big huge day in the DOW, and the volume on my inverse 3XETF was huge. Just another broke trader thinking he had a good chance of seeing the upside crashing and burning so that my holdings would be safely in the black. Spent Tuesday buying dips to keep me out of the “dead $” column. Had to take a walk to gain some perspective.

Rin-Tohsaka-is-hot

No, I believe it's not ridiculous. What is being referred to here as "smart" or "dumb" is really better attributed to knowledge. Passive investing is investing blind. It requires by definition no knowledge of the investments. You sink your paycheck into the market every month with no knowledge of what companies you're investing in, what their business outlook is, or what was reported in their past quarter. Actively investing is taking all of this relevant information and making investment decisions based off of it. The issue with larger amounts of passive investment is inflated assets. It's impossible for price discovery to happen in a market where the majority of traders have no knowledge or care for the price of the underlying stock they're buying. They just see the S&P 500, or more commonly the NASDAQ/DOW, even though their money is probably in the S&P 500 and not those other funds (but of course, they do not know or understand this).

Cautious4489w9

manitou202

Your best bet is to simply diversify. Buy some foreign ETFs, buy some long term bonds, gold, non-tech blue chip stocks like WMT, XOM, PG, JNJ, JPM, etc, and keep a small amount in tech. If the bubble pops, AI/tech stocks and meme stocks will take big hits, but the rest of the market may be relatively okay. When the dot com bubble burst, the SP500 was down about 35% while the NASDAQ went down 60-70%. The DOW (only 30 stocks) was down less than 20%. Many big blue chip companies continued to climb in value while also paying dividends. Gold continued up.

Fair enough. I don’t trade those outside of futures. I trade tech. It’s taking a beating. Not crash. But is a discount although 500 point drop in the DOW isn’t typical daily volatility, either. Bottom line. His nonsense has caused a drop. There’s no ignoring or excusing it as just a nothing burger.

1-Dollar-Doge-Coins

I was just using SPY as my benchmark. The DOW is at even less of a discount, only down about 1%.

Depends what you are trading. DOW dropped 500 points. That’s a discount. Man is a sensitive idiot that constantly needs deflection from his issues. Might as well profit from it. At substantial discounts

The_Brand94

I think what most people are missing here is that specialty chemicals and products companies like DOW, LYB, and CE produce will be used largely in the physical infrastructure build out for AI. 2026 likely to be a lower rate environment, construction picks up. I mean all these big tech companies are circle jerking money without much of the needed utilities and physical infrastructure being complete yet. They need land, buildings with most up to date materials/planning, and the draw they will put on the electrical grid. The physical construction portion of the build out for AI has really yet to be seen and I think we will see a lot more activity in 2026.

zerefdragneel1314

Issue is those who say stock market keep rising is referring to S&P, DOW, etc and they’re right. Keep it simple. Don’t invest in Japan stock market. 2008 crash took 5 years to recover and 2020 covid crash was less than a year. In short, stock market keeps rising so stop sitting on the side waiting for entry as S&P makes new highs. 700 is around the corner.

Repeating some news from yesterday, for those who ask "Think the government might want to invest in my critical metals SPAC?" : Reuters updated the article about CRML , with the following quote from the White House: **"Hundreds of companies are approaching us trying to get the administration to invest in their critical minerals projects,"** a senior Trump administration official told Reuters in response to a request for comment. "There is absolutely ***nothing close*** ***with this company at this time.***" Perhaps a CRML deal will happen, perhaps not. Then yesterday after market close, the following ( non SPAC ) news: Trilogy Metals Announces Strategic Investment by US Federal Government "VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Trilogy Metals Inc.
