"wiped"? There was money and it ceased to exist?
The money went back into the hands of all the people and money managers who sold their stocks today.
Edit: I expected a bloodbath in the markets with the rhetoric in this article, but the NASDAQ only lost 3% and the DJIA was positive today...

Trump counterbalance keeping it in check but my gut is saying once tariffs come in February there's going to be a market correction. Pure speculation on my part.
You don't have to say speculation when talking about the future of stocks. It's implied unless you are a time traveler in which case you should lead with that.
