  1. I Feel LIKE THE HOLE SEASON IS OVER, I'M TRYING TO GET INTO TRADING AS A ROOKIE, BUT I'VE HAD SO MUCH LOSS TRYING TO TRADE ON MY OWN,
    PLEASE WHAT STRATEGIES DO I NEED TO EARN PROFITS FROM THE MARKET🤢😢

  2. The Market have been suffering over the past month, with all the three indexes recording losses in recent weeks. My $400,000 portfolio is down by approximately 20%, any recommendations to scale up my returns before retirement will be highly appreciated.

  3. The whole secret of a successful life is to find out what is one's destiny to do, and then do it. ﹥Henry Ford

  4. Yes I think while their there

  5. It's not even peculiar that they have to be told?

  6. Any congress personal looking for any ways to make money rather than doing the job they are payed to do while; murders, suicides, trafficking, fentanyl/drug overdoses/abuses, child/elder abuse, homelessness, … , are part of DC corruption, and are either in denial or flat out lieing.

  7. Why tf do we need to keep talking when they should be banned from government!

  8. Should the CIA and NSA be banned from trading stocks too?

  9. Lock NANCY up!!! I think it was FEINSTEIN who taught them how to do it

  10. Nancy Pelosi: How to Lie Badly. On sale now at all Borders and Barnes and Nobles.

  11. Every liberal is potentially an insider trader ,so,how is not a crime as it is on Wall Street ? Isn't this a double standard carved out by these liberals to avoid prosecution.

  12. They need to just rip the band aid off on inflation already and raise rates to 7% TODAY.

  13. Banned? Hell no. Members have a responsibility to conduct their personal affairs without conflict of interest. Failing to do so should results in appropriate criminal sanctions, including removal from office.

  14. yes they should not be trading no brainer.

  15. That’s a laughable question!

  16. YES,what is the definition of insider trading,Did they break laws that govern stock trading regards holding a privallaged position I, think so .

  17. Insider trading is banned for everyone else, why not Congress. Duh!

  18. Term Limits are the only way we can stop all this corruption

  19. Come on man! Listen Jack, these people have got all the inside scoop. Heck yeah it should be illegal. It's a political scam!

  20. Yes Congress critters mist. NEVER trade stock or any other enrichment at the expense and detriment of the American PEOPLE. ol drunk Nancy is a perfect example of this corruption.

  21. Yes. And fox should be banned for reporting lies to its viewers. Say anything to keep people watching. Murdoch said it’s not red or blue, it’s bout the green. Sean Behar, hannity is a liar. Stop watching fox, the real patriots of this country no longer have any faith in ur reporting.

  22. I'll never forget that clip from
    Steve Kroft…….Priceless!
    A ban won't do any good, when most of them are crooks. If we Vote for and elect honest people, who have integrity, like Byron… we won't have to worry about bans.

  23. YES. Immediate family too with all other family being open to investigating should they need to be.
