Trade imbalance with China and why it's important:

How to Meet the Strategic Challenge Posed by China

When has the market had to deal with a complete a-hole like Trump?

I think the market considered Obama a much bigger a-hole than Trump.
Obama hated the market and didn't trust it and the suppressed potential of the market became abundant on the day after the 2016 election.

When has the market had to deal with a complete a-hole like Trump?

What are the terms of the 'cease-fire' he made with China?

No one knows.

Is it true that Trump, in true Trumpian fashion, created a crisis, only to step back from the crisis, and declare himself a 'winner'?

That's kind of his M.O.

Is acceptance of the 'One China Policy' part of Trumps' 'deal' with China?

Hard to say, but it likely doesn't help for Trump-a-loompa to be bad-mouthing China via Twitter after his 'detente' with China.

Trump isn't the sharpest tool in the box.

You certainly are projecting it! LOL

When has the market not had volatility?

Not much under Obama if you remember.
The market potential was pushed down by Obama's anti-business legislation and executive orders.

The market has volatility when it is healthy.
The expressed angst is by newbie investors and the political hacks trying to create anything they blame on Trump.
You have certain members on here talking about Treasury yield inversions and they don't have a clue what they are talking about.
It really is silly.

Great article and very insightful.
So good to see something written from an informed POV and not one bathed in political BS.

When is this not true?

 

[Old Man Jingles]

When is this not true?

Depends on the person.
I had a good mix ... in fact, I only remember the good ones in retirement.

we will get there, meanwhile you should pull all your investments out

We will get there





In 2030

And people with spines will deal with it because correcting the trade imbalances is important for the long term health of our economy.

and its not going to be easy

 

[newfie]

Long term perhaps. The question is..... how many years of volatility can the market withstand until that "long term health" is established?

the question should be how long can we deal with china manipulating the markets without abandon before we decide we have to stand up to them.

He seems more knowledgeable than most ... just very emotional.

yep its going to be a long drawn out ordeal. china will make trade deals and then violate them. will future presidents hold them accountable or will they simply bluster without substance like the past presidents.

partisan economics he's listening to the same types of financial analysts that predicted an economic collapse with trumps election and encouraged Obama to put a regulatory choke hold on business.

Not at all, I just think Trump is an idiot narcissist.

By the way, what did China agree to?

They haven’t said.

Maybe Trump is talking out of his anus, as per usual.

 

[DriveInDriveOut]

Hilarious to see the trumpflakes chomping at the bit to defend the Trump economy.

I think they know it was stupid for their dear leader to repeatedly tie his success as president to the market performance, and now they're getting nervous.

All the sudden they're expert investors and they've got it all figured out lol. Total cucklickan Trump worshipping. Sad.
