On Tuesday, April 23rd @AP sent a tweet that said bombs or something of the extent went off at the White House, immediately....hear me as I type this IMMEDIATELY the stock market went down.
Shortly thereafter, @AP sent out another tweet saying their account had been hacked and the tweet was untrue.
How? Why? What? would possess people to sell their stocks based on a tweet? Most people that trade stocks have some sort of intelligence and ability for independent thought, as they are choosing stocks and trading on the market. Better yet, they are alive and well daily making decisions that require the use of their brains.
Now the tweet could have very well been true or it may be false BUT did anyone take the time to think for themselves? Fact check, check other sources? Simply use their brain to be logical and not emotional?
Are we that obsessed with social media and information that someone could send a tweet that could alter life as we know it? This is mind boggling to us but what are your thoughts?
