Comment on Is there any way the average American can insulate themselves from the AI bubble bursting?

  …Tariffs affect other countries stock so you’ll get the same swing on the international. Im not sure you’re understanding how stocks work and maybe you’re just saying buzz words? Well… Either way, op is worried and they have a good reason to worry. They are educated enough about stocks to be worried. You…. You not so much.

    Be nice!

    US tariffs don’t exclusively hurt other countries stocks. You can compare an international domestic and emerging markets index fund to US domestic ones and see quite a divergence. The one I’m familiar with, ACWI, is up 21.8% YTD.

      So getting to the point: I’m not sure of the point you’re making here as the reference you’re using is all domestic funded in the US. You didnt provide the comparison to the international. And the point of the post was that the going up is the bubble OP is worried about. You’ve done nothing more than establish what was already the fact OP was posting on. We are well past this.

      If youre laying down information I’m checking it because there’s a lot of misguidance and misinformation online. If you think it’s not appropriate to call it out then you have a big problem here. I’m not going to apologize for being a critical thinker and you’re just going to have to figure out a way to live with that cuz compromising myself isnt going to come at the cost of approval from random strangers online.

      As far as politeness: so far you’ve not posted in good faith. And so I owe you nothing. Now you may proceed to clutch your pearls.
