Well, if existing home sales were any guide, that "when" may be sooner rather than later.

Existing home sales turning over.

MAGA!

Who can afford drinks or fries in this economy!?

Trump is helping us get there faster, and will make it even more fun with trillion dollar annual deficits when it finally hits

so why dont you say "we are back to where we were a few days ago?" like you do when there are some up days following a down trend... it isnt negative enough sounding to fit your narrative?


We are finally getting a pop in the VIX so i can sell credit spreads for next month

The Don has done such a YUGE job that he is now hurting the economy of the entire world....congratulation, Trump followers, you've led us all down the path to tens of trillions in loses and probably recessions all over the globe. When it hits here big time many will suffer.

All for nothing....except the ego of one person and those who put their "faith" in his (lack of) abilities.

The odds of "us" or you or I getting anything out it approaching the losses are about zero.....

Tens of trillions will be lost and Trumpies will shout to the rooftops if 100 billion is gained somewhere.

If you can name a single country in the history of the world where Nationalism and Isolationalism worked I'm all ears. But history shows that those "features" usually end in war and ruin.

It's a complicated game and the best course of action is always to tweak it slowly over many years rather than threaten and create (shutdown) the "end of the world". Not good.

I don't know how you do it but I'm glad you do.

You manage to say nearly the same thing with each and every post and keep it refreshingly amusing ?

Good job.

Do you have the name of those great nation states that don't practice globalism? Or, the other way, name 2 or 3 where rabid Nationalism works???
