Not an economist, nor did I sleep in a Holiday Inn Express last night but how does consumer confidence and general market optimism factor in? Everyone I talk to recently are now bullish on America and optimistic that Trump could be “the guy” to pull it all together. Some are talking fresh mom and pop start-ups if Trump can make deregulation happen, even if the capital costs them more when they decide to jump in than it might today.
The Federal Reserve is yet another enemy of this republic. Most of our enemies are within our government. The rest are ensconced in board rooms of our largest companies.
