Recent Depression Stocks

One reason for the recent depression in the stock market is because of the threat of the United States beginning a trade war with other super powered nations such as china. 2.7 percent of U.S. consumption is created in china, so if the United states were to begin to negotiate a better deal and it didn't go well the U.S. would lose 2.7% of production which would be a major hit in terms of an economical impact. With the S&P 500 closing down more than 2.2 percent, the broad market index posted its worst start to April since 1929, according to S&P Global. However, the fear of a trade was has receded because both china and the U.S. realized the war would slow the GDP of both countries.

Considered as some what of a lifeboat the big markets such as Staples is not the fail safe it used to be.

After the small depression the S&P 500 index is up 4 percent in less than two weeks and 6 percent above early April lows.

The market projection has also shown that the vital signs have returned to normal. As is the cycle it is possible for the market to drop back to all-time lows.

My 20% time Project: For one month using investopedia's stock market simulator starting with $10,000 to pick 5 different stocks to invest in whether it be industrial, electronic, or production.

The Stocks I chose were Microsoft, Google, Emerson Electric, Acme, and Boeing. By the end of one month every stock besides Acme had a net loss and the account had ended with a loss of 715.85 which is not good to begin with, in addition to this the account was showing an annual income of -30%.
