Smart people know the following things:
China (by devaluing its currency) is playing a game in hopes things will improve for China.
DJT is playing a game since he and most folks know the USA has been at a distinct disadvantage due to previous trade agreements.
The E.U. features almost continuous Q.E. and many countries' (of the E.U.) feature negative yields on bonds...which, of course, to the thinking person...is never a good idea...but the E.U. central bank is trapped by its own actions...and everyone should know that.
The entire global financial picture is one of disarray...mainly due to just about all of the big-players are busily engaged in one scheme or another trying to steady a listing ship...but, IMO, it's clearly a waste of time knowing that until the results are finally in and finally seen and known by one and all who's game was the better game...who did marginally well...and just who sucked out loud.
Now that Germany's economy has gone into contraction and exports are sinking like the Titanic...you will see France or someone else in the E.U. take more power away from Germany for the near term.
Isn't it interesting when China devalues the yuan...markets react strongly.
When Pakistan and India increase hostilities...the market reacts strongly.
When China sneezes...the markets react strongly.
Should Brexit occur...the markets will react strongly.
See the trend?
If folks are gonna be such a pu$$ about being crushed in the market...get your a$$ out of the market...as volatile as everything is...pre$ervation of capital is the smartest bet...unless you can be objective enough to see Trump isn't the only one who actions affect the markets.
And if, you think the markets over time will give you good returns...what are you whinning about, anyway?
if the markets were steadily moving up...many would still bitch (and piss and moan) trying to find any reason to justify hatred of any politician, DJT included.
