Like it or not the markets DO affect main streeters.

Missed my point entirely, didn't you.

Let me spell it out to you in detail:L

Those, whose focus is the market, and who are heavily invested in said markets, are not to be trusted when they write articles either putting down President Trump's Tariff policies or put a negative spin on President Trump's approach without providing all the facts.

Their focus is on their investments, not Main Street.

I don’t think I missed your point at all.

We CANNOT ignore the markets entirely because IT AFFECTS MOST AMERICANS. I gave you the stats. Nearly 70% of Americans have their pensions, IRA’s and retirement accounts tied to the markets ( both stocks and bonds ).

And this article is hardly critical of President Trump. I think it’s looking at the scenarios clinically.

And focusing on investments AFFECTS Main Streeters because Main Streeters DO Invest. In other words, the vast majority of them ARE INVESTORS.
