dow jones losing 1175 points today, equivalent to 4.60 % ..... same more or less around the world's stock exchanges.
it's like president bush said "wall street got drunk and now it's got a hangover".
i think people went irrational over investing, a correction is needed..
Here's how I see it. After 2 flat years or so, the market entered an ascending channel in late 2016. The recent sell off happened after the market got ahead of itself and the channel was violated on the upside. If the bottom of the channel isn't violated, the uptrend remains intact. I've added the red lines to show what I mean.
the falcon heavy is set to launch today.
if successful, it will become the most powerful rocket in use (twice as powerful as the delta heavy).. as it's the very first attempt, elon musk has said he thinks there's a 50/50 chance of it not blowing up.
so should be interesting.
It's an old argument, and one that if consistently followed would mean we'd still be huddling in caves and grass huts in Africa.
I agree with Musk: We need to become a space faring species that lives on multiple planets. Sooner or later, an extinction event will happen.
curious what the canadian take is on all this .
i also understand he compared islamic state terrorists to greek, vietnamese & italian migrants?
that one i haven't confirmed yet but sounds wacky if true.

The US is funding dev of SpaceX? Do you mean as a contract? Or as a subsidy?
And can you cite a source please?
Yes COTS is contract-based, but that isn't what I'm talking about.
The Air Force has dumped some $40 million into methalox engine development at SpaceX. That's just one thing that comes to my mind. And, at the state level, the company has taken subsidies in the past.
Elon has no problem taking government subsidies. He built SolarCity and Tesla with that.

and hasn't received a single dime from federal government subsidies.
I wouldn't quite put it that way although maybe it was once true. US Gov IS funding dev of new SpaceX tech these days.
I watched the launch. It was impressive.

He's so handsome and polished though Simon!
But it's trudeau.
The longer he's in office, the sooner comes the Day Of The Rake.
i know that some here detested him while others may have simply accepted the reality of who is president.. do you think he is better than you might have thought as a president?.
