Trumpenomics
-
I think I've lost about as much money in the last week as my previous house cost.
Not to worry, though, because some guy who's worth 500 million and went to Yale says everything's going to be OK.
Of course, he can lose half his wealth and still afford to retire whenever the fuck he likes.

Wow, whoever faked that just made a lot of money. I wonder if that's illegal.

I know the indices gave it back up, I just figure they were in a position to profit off a temporary move. Unless it was just a pure prank that went way more viral than anybody thought it would.
Anyway, that price action tells the tale of a bunch of "active traders" being very happy or very angry, all at the same time.

If nothing else good comes of this, at least we can emerge with the free trade issue settled, to a greater degree than it had been. Trade barriers have been a bad idea on both sides of the aisle over history.

It’s not just the penguins in the southern hemisphere Trump is going after, but their northern cousins, the Puffins, as well that inhabit the little islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon just off the coast of Newfoundland.
Trump really has it out for iconic sea birds.

He really seems to be chasing his own tail on the subject. He can’t seem to wrap his mind around the fact that opposition to free trade and globalization is not nor has it ever been exclusively a right vs left issue. Opposition to free trade is a readily exploitable political stances for populist opportunists inhabiting both sides of political spectrum.
He either needs some schooling on the horseshoe theory or take his head out of his ass and actually pay attention to what’s happening around him.
