Stocks slipped on Friday to end a brutal 2022 with a whimper, as Wall Street wrapped up its worst year since 2008 on a sour note.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 73.55 points, or 0.22%, to close at 33,147.25. The S&P 500 shed 0.25% to end at 3,839.50. The Nasdaq Composite ticked down 0.11% to 10,466.88.

Friday marked the final day of trading in what has been a painful year for stocks. All three of the major averages suffered their worst year since 2008 and snapped a three-year win streak. The Dow fared the best of the indexes in 2022, down about 8.8%. The S&P 500 sank 19.4%, and is more than 20% below its record high, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq tumbled 33.1%.

Sticky inflation and aggressive rate hikes from the Federal Reserve battered growth and technology stocks and weighed on investor sentiment throughout the year. Geopolitical concerns and volatile economic data also kept markets on edge.

“We’ve had everything from Covid problems in China to the invasion of Ukraine. They’ve all been very serious. But for investors, it is what the Fed is doing,” said Art Cashin, director of floor operations for UBS, on CNBC’s “The Exchange.”

As the calendar turns to a new year, some investors think the pain is far from over. They expect the bear market to persist until a recession hits or the Fed pivots. Some also project stocks will hit new lows before rebounding in the second half of 2023.

if you look at the national sex offender registry in the United states 45% of the rapes are from foreigners
coming into this country 25% are Mexican 10% are Muslims and the other are Asian people of different decent

leaving the 55% of that to black and whites also of different Decent of color and creed and nationality holding the rest of the sex offender registry what does that show you the likely hood that these people elected in office are pedophiles being elected by the rich Cunts and the Puerto Ricans which Puerto Ricans aint to bright any ways .

Pretty Soon the Spread of Gonorrhea and STD and H-I-V will be the new pandemic in American which its very common, especially among young people age of 15 years which spreads like wild fire back in the 1960's and 1970's
