DJIA Meaningless or Rigged? [View all]

Can billionaires manipulate through dolling out investments in order to make it appear like nothing bad is happening?

For the first time in my 77 years I have investments in the stock market. As long as my friend is in charge of monitoring them, I feel fairly safe. I don't want to bug her right now. But I'm so puzzled by what ISN'T happening. Like a complete crash that would have happened in the past given the upheaval and international uncertainty.

It closed up despite insane policies and shenanigans by WH.

What is going on?
