Your welcome, my FRiend. We certainly live in interesting times.
Fox News (Cavuto) just reporting in the Bloomberg.com interview that Trump is looking at raising the gas tax. Speculation at this point is to earmark the increase for infrastructure spending.
Agree with Wuli.
Very true. And the democrats said they were just helping the little people.
JFK paid with his life for having such thoughts
Every move down begins with a small drop. Check out the bank ETF chart at the attached link of the drop/reversal just today. Some wait for the crash, others look above them to see if anything is falling.

Not something CNBC is likely to report without reason for certainty.
Not sure i agree, but it’s a matter of scale. Make them all small enough to fail, send the message that you will NOT bail them out and then let the individual risk managers decide which direction that individual institutions will go. the good ones will flourish and the bad one will fail. just like they are supposed to do.
Too true. He did get 12 billion in increased defense spending, but that seems about it. Those who say this is a Trump victory or part of some great scheme we don't understand are becoming blind cheerleaders. We need to see what is happening and not happening and not just salute the rhetoric.
When the media attributes stock market motion to a political event, I pay no attention. They are generally lying.
Do It!
If we are going to have a Federal Reserve banking cartel, and the US Taxpayer bailing out banks, then break them up.
Return to the practice (forsaken after WWII) of all Commercial Banks being subject to double liability.
Make all other investment and speculative activities legally excluded from Federal Reserve open market operations and special programs, and outside of any bailouts from from Fed.gov.
Sell Mortimer, Sell.
We don’t need any three card monte here from Trump. He needs tell the Congress his veto pen is ready if they send up that turd budget. His and country’s future hangs on it.
Big business hates freedom. Crony capitalism is welfare for suits and ties.
Remember after the last crash when the pols promised to bust up all the financial institutions that were “too big to fail”?
Then the pols bailed them out with taxpayer money and forgot about their promises.
Now the “too big to fail” banks and other financial institutions are all bigger and more powerful than ever.
This is the Andrew Jackson of the 21st Century! Please read G. Edward Griffin’s “The Creature from Jekyll Island”! It’s the true answer to finally stopping the spread of Socialism and the blood that feeds it (i.e. The Fed Reserve and the unlimited power to create fiat currency)! This is actually the BEST News to come after the Election! Trust me!
Re: “Governmental regulatory policies (including the Fed) favor large institutional banks.”
Millions of completely satisfied consumers - like me - also favor large institutional banks.
Do It!

Well put! I only wish more people, on OUR OWN side, would completely understand the nature of the Federal Reserve (a “Private” banking cabal/cartel) and why its the reason why we’re struggling to defeat socialism in the Western world including in our own country!
“Interesting. “
Yes. Considering that most of mine including banks are up for the day.
My Gawd, that’s awfullll
A year from now you will be belittling Trump supporters for appreciating everything he is successfully doing, while your butts will be untouched as you armchair quarterback for another year.
Cruz is even worse. Wake us up when that Tub-O-Lard gets the Senate to do something. We know he can do fake filibusters, well, at least.
